Retro Gamer forum

I'm not talking about the page in the mag (which I hadn't even looked at), I'm talking about the one on the website.

Thanks for the response, Darran. I'll keep an eye on the website, then.

So I can buy the latest issue over the phone? Strange they don't advertise this on the website, but it's good to know. Thanks. (I also think it's strange the back issues page only features issues of the "old" Retro Gamer - I assume it's possible to buy back issues of "new" RG as well?) I wish they'd...

I'd also like to know the answer to this.

I just can't be bothered.

Sorry. I tried to make my post a little light-hearted, obviously I failed.

The title of the magazine is Retro Gamer. If all you want is a magazine that just bangs on about the old games you used to play so you can have a nice little nostalgia trip then fair enough. Well, that's not what I said, was it? :) Some of us though, well we actually like to play the games. What? A...

First of all, the RetroRated section. I personally don't mind reviews of re-releases and the like, but I can't say I'm fond of full page reviews for new games just because they may have a retro heritage (Battles of PoP) or games that only have a retro-styled look to them but are entirely new games ...

Live was the only company I EVER saw that had individual issue buying online. Let's hope more companies (i.e. Imagine) learn from them, then. I honestly don't understand what's so difficult about giving people the chance to buy individual issues of the mag online. It's the most sensible thing to do...

RPGs. Everything from ADoM to Morrowind. I love these games.

Don't particularily like Japanese RPGs, mainly because of the random combat, which is just bad game design.

I can find out for you mate, not sure myself but will post later a response letting you exactly when your first issue will be Thanks for that. Looking at Darran's comment in another thread, it seems my first issue will be issue 20, but I'll cross my fingers and hope he's wrong. I suppose my money w...

Because the first issue is now out, your sub would start from issue 20 (however, you would be able to obviously back order issue 19) What? Nooooo!!! So even if I subscribed yesterday I have to wait for the current issue to become a "back issue" before I get to buy it (for an increased price), provi...

Out of curiosity; how many pages are there? Because Fandenivoldsk's list of features is huge!

The Amiga or the C64. Great computers, fantastic selection of games. I suppose the Amiga is more important to me, but that's probably because I was stupid enough to sell the C64 and (almost) all the games for it. Bought a new one later on ofcourse, but it's not the same without my old games.

Right, I've subscribed (would have liked to be able to buy a few issues individually first, but okay).

I hope the subscription starts with the current issue and not next issue?

Well, Retro Free America would probably not have worked very well...
