New Magazine with Retro Section

28 November 2002, 15:29

I have just bought the first issue of GAMES magazine, published in the UK by Paragon.

The main mag is very much like EDGE, though less pretensious. However near the back is a 26 page retro section. Although it doesnt seem to have anything about the Amiga, there are features on the history of gaming, some reviews of old games and a look at Ultimate (who became RARE).

The section is (apparently) gonna be in every issue, and it is definetly worth buying. Maybe they will put some Amiga stuff in soon?

Don't forget to have a look at the uvgm magazine too, issue #3 is a nice retro issue.

It's bizarre that with the current onslaught of games (xmas coming and all), that mags are starting to focus on the good days of yore (Edge has a retro special too I heard).

Added : link.
