4 Tales Of Retro Woe - This Week In Retro 212
This week we are joined by Jason Compton from The Retro Adventurers to talk about four retro projects that may have hit hard times, how the loss of one online account could cost you dearly and about the return of a popular point and click adventure that might give you nightmares!
The Pixel Addict magazine website has had a faster modem fitted! You will be able to order your copy of the latest issue with such pleasure and ease! Visit pixel.addict.media for an interview with Julian "Jaz" Rignall and to find out about the Videoton TVC 64 plus many other interesting articles.
