Does it mention anything about the "Remix Mode" from the DC port? It's a kickass mode; wondering if they go into this? The scan would be interesting, nonetheless...

Many thanks, antares! Seeing as it spans multiple pages, for posterity, I'm gonna pick up the back issue.

Feel free to scan the "Making of R-Type Delta" as well - just don't tell my editor

Why am I always the last person to find out?!?!

Anyone have scans or can tell me the issue date/number?
Typical Edge and their hoity-toity 'please ourselves' attiude

Congratulations due anyway Roger I think! Has RG interviewed you yet about your site by the way? If not I'll give Darran a kick...

So MikeB - are you involved in Retro Gamer? I just wondered if you were a fellow UK games hack?

Hack being the operative word

Spend most of my time stalking old games programmers for RG...

Malc, it's great to hear from you, congrats on the Retro Gamer feature! God Bless you, I hope this thread finds your health well!

Has anyone here in the US gotten this issue yet? I've been to Barnes & Noble, but all they have is a buyers guide from 1979-2008. No issue with Malc yet.

This was issue 54 with the Outrun cover... it's probably been and gone in the US I'm afraid. I could probably get hold of copies for anyone who wants them though you'd be probably looking at about $14-15 after postage...
