Billed as the 'most beautiful adventure ever made', Amerzone whisks you away to a fictional far-off Central American country ruled by a power-crazy dictator.

The plot is based around mysterious white birds which, according to legend, are born, live and die in the air. It certainly sounds mysterious to us, and we can't wait to see the final product as it will include 360-degree vision a la Apple's QuickTimeVR.

While the rest of the world waits for the release of the third game in the Quake series, Mac owners can at last get their sticky paws on Quake II. Scheduled for release this August, it should be every bit as good as its PC counterpart - especially running on new G3 Macs.

In other Activision news, look out for Space Invaders (yes, that's right) and Battlezone 2, the sequel to the hugely popular arcade tank blaster. The latter will let players command over 30 unique units, including tanks, infantry and mobile assault turrets as they explore fully interactive 'living' worlds. You'll also get 25 deadly weapons to play with, including mortars, mines and 'The Thumper', which can be used to trigger earthquakes.

An all-new adventure with Indiana Jones is also due later in the year. The man with the hat and the whip returns to save the world in Indiana Jones and the Infernal Machine.
