"The One Amiga" August 1993 : Thalion announced 1991 classic Trex Warrior to be 100% Public Domain and "free to do with as you like". It was also given away on a cover disk.

NOB: Can you please tell us what the trivia is for that entry? Is it the fact the original LCP was ~20 pixels tall and they blew it up so much?

@Codetapper:
Indeed, blowing the screenshot up so much is unique. But i havenĀ“t checked out the complete Amiga Magazine Rack yet. Maybe there are even more fanatic screenshots. An article about - fanatic screen shots is adequate and interesting for an magazine collection with such an giant volume. |
