Retro Gamer forum

Well, I don't know about anyone else, but the forum stopped sending out password reset emails about a year ago. I forgot my password, couldn't reset it and eventually just walked away.

Ditto, this issue looks much more interesting to me. Although 163 did get me to finally play Tomb Raider Underworld...

And brought back Ross Brawn and Jenson Button.

I did the same thing back when Doom 3 was released. Being a Mac gamer isn't easy (or cheap). I played some shoddy ports in my time...

Anyway, welcome back to PC gaming!

I remember seeing Mortal Kombat at the cinema. What a way to open a movie!

Arrival 2016.... id been looking forward to this for some reason... maybe just because I have a fancy for Amy Adams. The aliens themselves were suitably weird with good noises but I found the plot and especially the ending a bit vague and woolly and this is not an action movie - not that I went int...

Playing through the latest Doom on the PS4. I'm really loving the simplicity of it all - just shoot stuff. No cinematic story crap, no stupid two weapon limit, just pure shooting action against loads of different enemies. Feels like the Doom sequel I've wanted for a while, and one of my favourite F...

Completed Gods on the Mega Drive, through emulation with save states. It might be considered cheating, but that games bloody hard. Well done. I could never get past one of the switch puzzles on, like, level 3 or something. I completed The Last Guardian yesterday. I don't mind admitting to getting a...

I'm sure you'd find someone who just wants the box.

Don't forget to remove the ticking time bomb from your Xboxes!

Been enjoying some 3D classics collection. Quite enjoying Power Drift and even used the 3D for a little while . Played through Sonic yet again , can't help doing the level select cheat even though I don't actually use it for anything. Altered Beast is a bit gash but that was expected and currently ...

Issue 162 had a "How To Play Retro Today" feature. That might be a good place to start?
