Sam and Max ... pah! ... took them only seven and a half months. We'll show them: seven and a half years and not a day less for FoA! Take that, Tim Shafer! ;D

oh. beh. FoA ... not FoY ... must be getting paranoid...

Ah, an article on the A1200!

Another reason to buy the thing. Although, I did get a pain in my neck from craning over the magazine (damn this lack of table space) so I consider that my punishment.

The A1200? Ah my old friend... We laughed, we cried, you died. (Literally)

And home of the Amiga's own adventure game maker GRAAL (Imagine AGS with just the code bits)

Awesome read, I love Retro Gamer Magazine .. It costs so much here in Australia ($15 australian dollars).  But it is always such a nostalgic read even though I know most of the stuff that they publish.

I feel sad now, just remembering ... stuff :( Even being apart of an adventure game community doesn't really make me think of those old games much, but reading that, I can actually remember what experiencing all those games for the first time was like.

Fifteen Dollars Australian?
I thought your money was worthless (no offence) anyway.
On a paperback that costs £5.99 sterling, the Aus$ price is somewhere around $18.
$15 for the mag would sound about right.
