ALL CHANGE!
Format, Britain's finest
and fastest growing
mag for the C64. We
report to Commodore
w e i c o m e on everything
that's happening on the C64 scene, from
games to techie stuff. So if you've got a
Commodore and want to get the most out
of it, this mag's for you.
It's been all change, all round, this
month as a fresh crew have boarded the
spondent's chair full time. What hasn't
changed though is our commitment to
bringing you the very best C64 magazine in
the history of history itself.
After the avalanche of software last
Christmas there seems little sign of a let-
up with the big name licences Indy Heat
and Robocop 3 hitting the C64 this month.
And if that wasn't enough
there's a new wave of
original budget games
about to reach the shops '
in the form of Demon
Blues and Bignose. We
give them all a
Powertest review - and
the results are sur-
prising indeed.
Cheers
!

Metal Murphy is back as the tin cop with a

Robocop 2 was strong, but does Robocop 3
score the machine-man's hat-trick or has the
robo-rozzer's gameplay gone rusty?
Robocop 3 has the distinction of beating the
movie to the punch, but is that all it has to
offer? Directive 4 insists that you turn to
