The Bottom Line RetroAction issue 1 is out, and every self-respecting retro-gaming fan should download a copy.
Just letting everyone know about a new ezine called RetroAction - issue one has just been releaed. I found the magazine to be well-written and very nicely designed. Anyone interested in retro gaming is bound to enjoy this - since I'm a huge fan to The Bitmap Brothers' awesome Speedball 2, the "Retro Respect" article about that game immediately attracted my attention. The DOSbox article is sure to be of interest to PC owners wanting to get old games to work. Here's the full contents list: Regulars: Raiders of the Lost Arcades - Battle Plan! Vol. 5 Unfortunately, the arcade is becoming extinct as a gaming platform, so we take a trek back through time - using MAME's random generator - to relive some of the arcades greatest, worst, and indifferent games. Retro Respect - Jill of the Jungle We've all missed a minor classic during our time. we resurrect the forgotten classics, the misunderstood, the underdogs, the games that are actually quite good, but never gained the attention or accolades it deserved.
