A work mate just came up to me and said 'I saw this and thought of you' and dropped a copy of a new magazine 'Retro* Gamer' on my desk

Nowt much on the Atari bar the 10 best 2600 and 10 best ST games, Big articles on the Sinclair Spectrum and Mastertronic but it has a cd on the cover with lots of emulators and games.

Anyone else seen it? comments? Bets on its survivability?

Looks like an interesting magazine but pricy at six pounds sterling. I know it comes with a CD of 75 emulators and games but still...

Yeah, I was going to get a copy myself, but the price put me off. :(

Got it a week or so ago, pretty good read actually. The mastertronic article is worth it alone for those who knew and loved the c64 ! :)

Bought another mag same day just called 'retro'. seems to be a yearly one or something, pretty good read also, but pricey as well at like a fiver or something..... :|

Both worth checking out though, :)

Ironically, even though I grumbled at the six pound price of the retro gamer magazine, I've bought all three issues of Retro, a magazine published by the same people who produce Edge magazine. Same it only comes out every six months or so.
