Nostalgic titles like...... Diablo :O

Nostalgic to me would be Manic Miner

Bit spammy for a first post though

Just opened it and having a swift look through. Not as retro RETRO as I'd like, but there are still some real gems to dig into. I must quickly say though that I stopped and read the making of Super Robin Hood - a game I remember not being brilliant on the C64. The conversion capers with white print ...

Boulderdash was SO much better!

The non-subscriber cover is horrible! I actually prefer the Subs one for this issue.

Was just looking to see if it was on Antstream.... it's not

Will have to load up MAME

We played Sonic Adventure 1 & 2 rather a lot on the Dreamcast, so when we got Shenmue and plodded around for a while, the kids decided it was rubbish and it never went back on!

All these years later I still haven't played it properly. I really must change that.

I've got it - but it's still in its wrapper. Life is just so busy atm, so will hopefully get to have a butchers hook sometime Wednesday. Never been a fan of the Gameboy (although Tetris was cool on it). Actually, the content on the cover has very little to 'turn me on' this issue. But you never know...

I pre-ordered this and got notification that it had dropped in price to £99.99

Well, for one, you spend a long time reminiscing whilst stuck on a single page. I love a good memory story but you spend a little too much time on it imho. Maybe, to get the double page rather than struggle with single pages - go to http://www.zzap64.co.uk/zzap1/zzap1.html as there you can see the m...

I loved Zzap!64 and issue 1 is a classic... but I can't quite bring myself to sit through over an hour of reviewing it!

I did skip forward (a lot) and enjoyed what I stopped to watch though

That's really cool! What a great teacher!

Actually, really enjoying this issue. So far Robocop 2 and Amiga power articles read... Both great reads.

BUT what are the chances of having a 'making of' the best Amiga mag ever produced? (obviously The One Amiga)

A overall view on stickers. Worthless tat that has no place with RG, the subscribers are not 7 years old.

I gave them to my 10yr old daughter. No doubt I'll find them stuck on things all over the house later!

I'd love some of that stuff! I'd imagine you'd be sticking a pretty big price on that lot in one go!

Wouldn't they all have a meltdown and have to hide under their desks for even mentioning emulation?

We all know that anyone that dares mention EMULATION is a thieving nasty pirate and could get the mag taken off the market

it is a great idea though
