Issue 7

Editorial

News news news... oh so many news in this Zzap!Raine issue - I don't know where to start from.

I'll begin introducing our two new staff members. The former has already introduced himself in our message board: he's Lee Bolton, webmaster of a site devoted to retrogaming, Peek'n'Poke, and he even worked as reviewer in the very last issue of Zzap!64 (March 2002, issue 107 - click on the pic to visit the site and download the free .PDF version). The latter is named Talas, and he's located in Germany. He'll participate as a reviewer for both Raine, 8 and 16 bit games.

Yep, you read it right: I said 8 and 16 bit! A brand new section opens, named Zzap!Test: it is a real magazine within another magazine, having its editorial and reviews of games released for all those golden computers coming from the Eighties. The logical link to this magazine is simple: we'll review computer versions of arcade videogames emulated by Raine. This issue you'll read fantastic reviews of Rainbow Islands and Super Space Invaders (aka Majestic-12), which arcade versions were rewiewed in Zzap!Raine issue 1.

Videogames will be tested on C64 and other golden grandfathers as ZX Spectrum, MSX, Amstrad CPC, Amiga and even Atari ST, so much beloved by Tux - in order to make almost everyone happy heh!

Now let's talk about this issue's reviews. For the first time in our history, we reviewed a sports game: Hit the Ice. Also reviewed a super-classic shooter, Terra Cresta, a platformer: Rodland and finally a good puzzle-game: Puzznic. This should satisfy all sorta videoplayers! Have fun and...

... Happy zzapping.
