Because i think gaming today is a crock of {bleep}e - i tend to escape all that nonsense by buying old machines or equivalent. I recently brought a magazine called Retro Gamer (issue 3) that covers loads of retro game and even had a section on the Acorn and BBC Micro computer range of machines. Another section was about a company
still producing games for the 8 bit range of somputers such as Spectrum, C64, BBC, Amstrad, etc. Another section included was a round up of all the old handhelds that fought (and failed) against the mighty Gameboy. Also included was a CD full of Gremlin games (roms) to be played on the emulators included.
I thoroughly recommend any retro enthusiast to get there mits on this wonderful mag.
