‘Back in Time’ is my monthly feature at Out-of-Print Archive where I look back at the classic video gaming magazines twenty years ago this month. This month it’s October 1990 when three brand new magazines were launched (Raze, Mean Machines and Commodore Format), the Commodore C64GS launched, Ivan ‘Iron Man’ Stewart’s Super Off Road raced all over the major gaming formats, Wonderland proved a wonderful hit… and much more.
As usual, to accompany the main feature, four articles have been chosen from four of the magazines covered. This includes Commodore Format’s feature on the C64GS, Amstrad Computer User’s feature on the new range of Amstrad Plus machines, CU Amiga’s review of Wonderland on the Amiga and The One’s review of Powermonger on the Amiga.
