May is probably one of the most busiest months for the gaming industry, especially with the Electronic Entertainment Expo. This year we didn't get a chance to cover the event in person, but we did do a lot of coverage where we could. From two new handhelds being shown off to hundreds of screenshots for dozens of new games. Be sure to check out our E3 2004 article, E3 2004: The Wrap Up, which details the event and has links to all the screenshots you want.

Another big event at GamePlasma this month was the acquisition of the Element Gaming Network. You can view the press release about it filled with details from our Network News section.

Make sure you take a look at all of our new reviews this month, including BREED, Northland, WWE Raw 2, Mario vs. Donkey Kong, Unreal Tournament 2004, Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, KUMA\WAR, Sonic Advance 3, and Return of the King.

In addition to the reviews, catch our previews of Warlords Battlecry III, Guild Wars, and TrackMania!

What's coming up next month?

June will mark the one-year anniversary for GamePlasma. We have a few really big surprises lined up for this summer, but you'll just have to stay tuned to the site to find out what they are. Don't worry, I'm sure you'll like them!
