Does anyone know if they have covered Resident Evil 2 or Final Fantasy 7 yet? Perfect time to coincide with those next gen remakes.

Not had a chance to read it yet. Stickers are beautiful but my first thought was ah feck I don't have anything to put them on. :lol:

Makes me wish I was an apple wanker with a laptop.

Picked up a copy of this in Tesco today (£5.99! No wonder magazines are dying). The stickers are cool and I look forward to reading all the articles and the Mega Drive booklet on the toilet :toot:

So I've found myself subbing for the 3rd time at £26 quid every 6 months, mainly for the free 8bitdo NES controller - https://www.amazon.co.uk/8Bitdo-Wireles ... rds=8bitdo
