Editorial
17 years have gone by since the 1st Zzap!64 issue was released, and the reviewed games for C64 and Amiga
are obsolete since 10 years. The only way to bring to life again all this is Internet.
In our case we'll take into consideration only Arcade games emulated by Raine, therefore the name "Zzap!Raine".
Anyway, for C64 and Amiga and their games fans (I'm one of them), no problem, emulators and games exist for those old and
glorious machines.
I might forget something... Yes, there was also ZX Spectrum.....
Emulators like Raine have the aim to conserve a part of electronic game history and want to help remembering a time of life
for those who lived their youth in the same time with the birth, growth and then the large diffusion of the Arcade (First
half of '70).
In addiction to Zzap!64, we have kept Rockford, the funny character who hung around the magazine pages.
The reason of his being is easy: without him something would be missing in Zzap!Raine! Rockford was Boulder Dash main
character, released by First Star Software, and later on in 1985 he was converted by D.E.CO to an Arcade game.
Well, now, as Chris Anderson said in his first editorial...
Happy zzapping.
