The Games We Never Talk About: Land Of Genesis

The Games We Never Talk About (But Should) (TGWNTABS) is back again and this time we will talk about a rather new title (by Amiga standards), it came out back in 2000/2001 and it sort of never got the attention it deserved thanks to a very dwindling Amiga community.

Book Review: Hints And Tips For Videogame Pioneers

The best part of retrocomputing, if you are really into it with an “academic” attitude and not just out of nostalgia, is studying in depth what happened back in the ’80ies based on the stories of who made it happen. I sure was there, but I was just a kid and little I knew of […]
