Spiderman 2 (the new one). Really good, maybe better than the first one. I've completely lost track of the Spider Man films. In the last 18 years we've had 3 reboots spanning 7 films & an animated spin off & quite a few cameos in the MCU it's no wonder you're confused. I think I know Spiderman's or...

Playing through the Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance games on the Xbox.

So much fun.

Awesome! It's the vastly superior Japanese artwork too.

Never heard of it, is it any good?

Only just spotted this! Cheers, I managed to pick up some old carts in the end. I've relabeled them Real Sports Soccer is now FIFA '82 & Pele's Soccer is now George Best's Soccer...purely for my own amusement! https://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=2128555313899140&id=136205879800770&set=a.6559885511...

So then, the "last" batch of games announced. - Tetris - Darius - Road Rash II - Strider - Virtua Fighter 2 - Alisia Dragoon - Columns - Dynamite Headdy - Kid Chameleon - Monster World IV - Light Crusader - Eternal Champions So it looks like this time round the emulation should be spot on, M2 should...

Great stuff. Sometimes the best thing you can do is take a break for a few years & then come back to something with renewed enthusiasm.

I find the love of retro & gaming in general comes in waves & it's great when you get the buzz back.

Still catching up with last month's mag, a lot of good reading in there. Enjoyed the Mortal Kombat article, like many people I haven't played any if them since MK2 so it was interesting to see how it's evolved over the years. Loved the Mastertronic article, would love it to have been 35 pages instea...

Yes, enjoying WWDITS, I liked the film, but it definitely works better in 25 minute bursts.

It's an evergreen title.

If you're at a gaming event & there's a spare megadrive sitting about , it's always a fun playthrough with a beer & a mate.

Mine just arrived today. Looking forward to cracking into that Skool Daze article.

Although I would've loved to have seen a Skool Daze cover, I guess Burnout is more commercial & I really like the artwork on the subscriber version.

The letters page is good this month too.

Thunderforce 3, Toejam and Earl, Castle of Illusion, Sonic 2 & Streets of Rage 2.

5 of my favourite MD games there...this thing is actually starting to become quite tempting!!

Wow Dudley! Hello there. I am amazed the Master System had much of a life after the Megadrive was released. The machine & games wern't that much cheaper & the MD had that MS converter for anyone looking to upgrade. A definite underdog, it's amazing to see how far they pushed the commercial life & wh...

Wow thanks for all the replies guys, gonna try and pick up a few of those at Gamestation tommorow.

Haha, I love how my thread has dated. I miss those days!

Building up quite a collection now, it's amazing how cheap you can pick up a lot of the carts for on Ebay.

Rekindling my love of the Baldur's Gate Dark Alliance games. I've recently picked them up on the XBox & I'm starting them again from scratch.

I'd forgotten how much fun they are, really enjoying playing through the 1st one again.
