Re: Newsfield Magazines to Appear on Retro Fusion

Excellent! Very well presented too. Now I can hopefully look forward to being able to re-read issues 2 - 5 of Crash that got lost when I moved house back in 1984. |

I was shocked to hear the news that he had passed away. As others have said he will be sorely missed but he leaves behind him a legacy of memorable games that will hopefully be remembered many years from now. |
Re: 10 Worst PS1 games

Fair play, that is indeed a list of really bad titles. I have actually played a couple of them namely Resident Evil: Survivor and Action Man: Mission Xtreme and can honestly say they were...ah, can't swear on here...er...rather jolly terrible! As [...] |

A good article and I agree whole-heartedly with what is said. Also, as boyo and DonkeySpank say, the memory of playing the games is much more satisfying than actually playing them nowadays. There are still a few I dig out and play and these are th [...] |
Re: The Beloved C16 Uncovered

I have a certain soft spot for C16/+4. Whilst it was a technically inferior machine a number of programmers managed to get some very good games out of it. Some even made it to the C64.Subzero - the game could have been 'Punchy' although 'Robin to the R [...] |

Re: PS2 Games So Cheap???

It's definitely a buyers market at the current time. I'm on gardening leave at the moment so decided to have one last trawl around the local shops before redundancy cuts my finances drastically. I picked up 43 PS2 titles in Cash Generator for 49p each [...] |
Re: What's happened to RF?

I'm afraid I haven't been around anywhere very much recently due to various things going horribly pear shaped in life. I have been looking in but haven't really had the time (or the inclination) to post or write much. Hopefully this will change once I [...] |
Re: The A Team

Mrs Von and I went to see it the other day and both agreed it was pretty much spot on. The writers obviously knew what made the TV show so good and managed to work it into a film. All the elements were there (and without spoiling the plot too much [...] |
