Retro Gamer is a magazine which is printed and published in the UK by Imagine Publishing. It is almost exclusively dedicated to re-visiting the halcyon days of 8-bit and 16-bit gaming (with the odd splash of 32-bit to provide controversy!)
Each issue (currently priced at £4.99) features a range of articles with a wide reaching brief to entice as many readers in as possible, and as a result the CPC and some of its games have been featured a number of times (although not as much as most of us would like - such is the nature of personal prejudice!)
