THE GREAT ESCAPE

FROM RAPID RUN-AND-GUN GREATS TO THOUGHTFUL STRATEGY GEMS, THE AMIGA WAS A VERSATILE GAMING SYSTEM THAT OFFERED SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE. WE LOOK BACK ON WHERE IT EXCELLED AS A GAMES MACHINE, PLUS HOW IT COPED WITH ARCADE CONVERSIONS AND COMPETING WITH CONSOLES

AMIGA OWNERS WERE SPOILT FOR CHOICE WHEN IT CAME TO MAGAZINES DEDICATED TO THEIR PLATFORM. STANDING OUT AMONG THESE WAS THE MUCH-LOVED AMIGA POWER. FORMER EDITOR CAM WINSTANLEY TAKES US BACK THROUGH THE RAUCOUS MAGAZINE SCENE OF THE TIME

BEFORE BECOMING PART OF TT GAMES, TRAVELLER’S TALES WAS BEST KNOWN FOR CHARACTER-BASED ACTION TITLES SUCH AS TOY STORY, SONIC 3D AND CRASH TWINSANITY. FOUNDER JON BURTON HELPS RETRO GAMER CELEBRATE THE STUDIO’S FINEST RELEASES
