Imagine being that one guy who had a subscription to all 472 video game magazines being published in any given month in the UK back then.

That feels like one to two mags for every different computer system being sold back then.

BBC Micro, Acorn Electron, Atom, Vic-20, C-64, Amstrad CPC, Atari, ZX-81, Spectrum 48k, CBM Pet, New Brain (I kid you not!!), TRS-80, DAI, Video Genie, Microcontroller, NASCOM 3, NEC PC8000, Sharp MZ, Sorceror (WTF?    ) TI99/4a, ADAM, Memotech, Spectravideo SV-328, Dragon 32, Oric, GEC Dragon 64 (yet another ), Apple II, CGLM5 (what the ...??), Gemini Galaxy 2, Mattel Aquarius, Lucas LX ... and that list was pulled from a mere 3 mags from the early 1980's. Holy shit!!

I only read PLAYSTATION MAGIC

Why did they confuse Tarzan with Final Fantasy VIII? I mean, one's a platformer, the other's a JRPG. Confusion alert!

You may laugh but I have wasted good time and money trying to get a copy of that ugly looking magazine.

The Grandad of "Official" magazines is up next with issue 09 of Amstrad Computer User added to the download area. The last few issues I possess of these have pretty beaten up covers unfortunately ...
