Retro gamer magazine

[Luseth 1,971]

I sign up to Readly every now and again which I believe Martin has just discovered, on there is Retro gamer which I find quite a good magazine talking about older games, thought I might post in here every now and again about what they are talking about each month.

 

So this month is about Ridge Racer, sadly the series isn't really around today but I do have fond memories of playing Ridge Racer Type 4 way back. I am not so into racing games now other than playing with friends.

 

So they also explore how the series came about which began with Mazda (their tech demos over in Japan) and this developed into the video games, they were somewhat ahead of their time when they first launched in terms of graphics and such.

I used to love gaming mags, all the was back to Zzap 64 for Commodore 64.

 

....and then the early days of game sites on the internet were really usefult, sadly they're all just adverts and spam now but still posing as gaming sites 😭
