New release round-up

Severance tops the bill in the UK's new releases today

It's another quiet week for the UK as Friday comes and goes with just two new releases for the PC - the gory third person fantasy action game "Severance : Blade of Darkness" from Codemasters and Spanish developer Rebel Act Studios, and Microids' real-time strategy offering "Time of Conflict", which we haven't seen or heard from since ECTS five months ago.

Next week is expected to be equally quiet, with the latest EA Sports title "NBA Live 2001" the only PC game that is likely to see the light of day next Friday, as Eidos have just pushed back the release of "F1 World Grand Prix 2000" by a couple of weeks.
