Every Beeb game I ever played was in the computer studies room at school (circa '81 to '85). So, not counting the C&VG type-in listings, or Yellow River Kingdom, it'd have to be one of the totally authentic (ahem) games brought in by fellow pupils. I'd say Elite, but I really played that on the C64,...

How about a Tony Crowther feature? I'm pretty certain he's still in the industry even now, and he was definitely a prolific author right through our favourite 8 and 16-bit ages with a hefty back catalogue of titles to look at. Plus he had a quite distinctive 'chunky' graphical style that always stoo...

Still got all 24 issues sat safely in a box (they were on a shelf in my office until recently but I needed more space for Edge, Games TM and, of course, Retro Gamer). Arcade was the mag that re-ignited my gaming fires after a down-turn. Bought issue one, with it's Lara Croft cover, from the (now clo...

It's here!
Issue 19 dropped through my letter box 10 minutes ago!
Looks absolutely fantastic. I loved the old RG, but this looks soooo polished in comparison.
I have to work, so I can't look at it properly yet, but it's a beautiful piece of work. Well done you folks!

Re:
What was it with the fluorescent fad in the 80s? Is my memory playing up or weren't there some biscuits that were vile shades of green and yellow? And something akin to Monster Munch in equally horrific colours? . Yes, there were - I used to love them - but I can't remember for the life of me what ...

Re:
Paradroid, 'nuff said. It would actually work very well in a full-on 3D version with a first-person perspective. That's been mooted by many in the past, but I've always utterly failed to see how a de-facto 3D Paradroid could work, because so much of the gameplay mechanic required you to be able to ...

In terms of hours of fun provided, my favourite has to be my N64. I loved it so. Goldeneye, OOT, Banjo-Kazooie, Blast Corps, Super Mario 64 plus a whole bunch of others that captured my imagination and drew me into their worlds. Plus, there's something about cartridges that will always make them fee...

I got my Speccy (48k rubber keyed beauty) at Christmas 83. Little did my parents know that I'd been sneaking it out of it's hiding place for several weeks to play Manic Miner and Atic Atac... :D I remember a few years before getting a Bambino UFO Master Blaster Station handheld. Everyone else got a ...
