Checkmate Commodore - This Week In Retro 148
Doom and Doom II remade for the Atari Jaguar, a discussion about image scalers for retro gaming and do you know what Commodore's 2nd computer actually was?
All that and the Atari 2600+, news in brief and the Community Question Of The week.
The Christmas edition of Pixel Addict is now available and it features stories about Christmas games and toys of old(ish). With interviews with various members of staff of the magazines we loved back in the day and there is even an insight into how the Argos catalogue was put together. Visit www.pixel.addict.media
