Oh snap did I miss the issue about Sega Saturn and the making of the Monkey Island Series? I better take a spin to Barnes and Noble today before it is too late...

How's the Vectrex article? Does it contain some good coverage, or is it more of a general interest "introduction to the Vectrex" ?

Thanks for the pic. It's great how they feature a franchise (i.e. Contra) and show all of the versions and derivitives. I have a back issue that does that with Bubble Bobble.

[Lost Dream]

It's been put together by one of your members (Mayhem) and apparently, he knows his Vectrex

@wallydawg:

IIRC #34 comes out stateside next week. I got all excited about it a month early, but I'm buying it next Thurs or Fri.

Yeah, we're always way behind when these issues actually come out. A shame really. I guess I too should be on the lookout by the end of next week. Somehow I thought Load 34 was out locally this Friday but that turned out to be false. 35 looks great though, I can hardly wait.
