There's so many great games in this issue, it took me a while to rename all the pages that I would like to post.
But if I did that, it would be well over 60 pages and I would certain be getting complaints. 😅

So I'm gonna try to pick a couple of varied articles and stick with those for today.

First up in the review for Final Fantasy X on PlayStation 2 from GamesMaster 112 - October 2001 (UK)

Just started listening episode 441 of the retro hour podcast, which is about the The Untold History of Japanese Game Developers book series and interviews John Szczepaniak.

https://theretrohour.com/the-untold-history-of-japanese-game-developers-the-retro-hour-ep441/

And I just realised that I had no idea that there were new releases after the original trilogy of books!

Volume 4 looks to have been a Blu-ray release which is nowhere to be found anymore sadly, and Volume 5 was another massive book!

Working on more N64 magazines and I definitely did not expect this top line when buying a Nintendo magazine. 😂

Taken from Total 64 No.27 Volume 3 Issue 3 - April 1999 (UK), it reads "Zelda reveals all in web-porn shocker!"

Alright, here goes "Wonderland" by Magnetic Scrolls. While arguably less famous than #infocom, their titles were quite highly regarded. They came with a fancy windowing system of their own. We start off playing Alice, accompanied by her sister on a meadow.

I am trying to get OMF2097 to run on RetroPie with two no-name PS3 gamepads... The gamepads work fine in Emulation Station. They do things in DOSBox-pure. However both are mapped to the SAME keys. DB-Pure even has OMF2097 mappings, one using WASD and the other numpad. However it seems both controllers are treated as WASD. What am I doing wrong?

Let's start this new year the right way.

I thought that this was the second to last issue of CVG that I had left, but I discovered 2 more earlier issues that are intact and thus I'm able to work on.
That's issue 125 and one more, so I have those to look forward to as well. 😊

But here is CVG 113 - April 1991 (UK), which I've just added to the magazine catalogue.
