  • Exclusive review! Elite 64


Contents:

  • Anyone like the 64?
    You bet. Key industry figures Tomkins, Chaney, Stewart, Crowther and Walker give their verdicts.
  • Elite is here
    Hailed as perhaps the greatest ever computer game when it appeared on the Beeb last autumn, the great 3D space game now hits the 64. Our three-page review is the only one you'll see this month.
  • Win a disk drive!
    We actually have THREE Commodre 1541s to give away. They'll go to the people who can give us the best playing tips.
  • The new Miner 2049'er
    The all-time classic platform game returns with a vengeance in Bounty Bob Strikes Back from US Gold. It's a sizzler. So are two other new US Gold titles: Spy Hunter (p40) and Super Huey (p48).
  • The big Crowther interview
    Does he really hate Jeff Minter? Can he really stay with his third company in 12 months? Is his favorite food really pot noodles? All you ever wanted to know about the graphics king.
  • Beyond's stunning Shadowfire
    The first 'icon-driven' adventure. Superb graphics. It's a sizzler.
  • White Wizard lives on
    The greatest adventure writer of them all casts his spell on Zzap with reviews, news, help and his personal top ten.
  • Lords of Midnight 64
    The original massive epic arrives on the 64. We review it, and map it. Another great conversion for adventurers is Tir Na Nog (p80)
  • The 64 all-time greats
    We name (and describe) the 64 greatest games on the world's greatest machine. In order. Also the tent tackiest top-sellers. Prepare to argue.
  • The great Karnath solution
    A superb guide from the first people to solve the game. Plus great playing tips on Ghostbusters, Impossible Mission, and stacks of other 64 games.
  • Musical magic
    Our assessment of programs which turn your 64 into a music maker.
  • Minter the hairy
    Amazing words penned by the greatest animal lover of them all. Followed by a chance for five people to win the entire range of 12 Llamasoft games for the 64!
