There I was happily playing Pure Pinball 2.0 and in the corner of my eye I noticed Zzap 64 magazine (the ultimate C64 magazine of the day) on a coffee table to the left of the pinball machine.
Being a complete sado, I thought I'd mention it's publication #15.
They reviewed Leaderboard and Sentinel if I'm not mistaken.
Uber Retro rush...
Hehe... While I don't really like the game, I think it's great that it pays homage to the C64.
Pics?
Wonder if that cost them anything to do though, it was a big publication back in the day. Not that GOOD a one in my opinion but the cover TAPE was usually worth the purchase

Screen grabbed. It's certainly #15.
And here's a great link that celebrates the magazines history.

Here's a picture of the cover used in Pure Pinball 2.0.

Fixed your links there.
[EDIT] And now that they work... Yay! Thanks! I'm so gonna read this right now :-D
[EDIT2] Here's a little excerpt from the FAQ about URL tags:
The forum has a function to automatically recognize URLs and format them as links. However, the function is buggy, and often throws random spaces into the URL. Instead, use the URL function in the post editor (the small icon looking like three links of chain to the left of the editor window. It will encase whatever you have marked in URL tags. The URL goes inside the first tag, and between the tags, you put whatever text you want people to see on the link (this can also be the URL if you want).
[EDIT3] Hehe, from one of the reviewers:

Don't delay, go to your software shop and say 'Mr Retailer, swiftly hand me a copy of Wizball so that I can go home and play it forthwith.'

I couldn't agree more! :-D

Wizball is truly one of the best games ever made, I'd suggest a modern remake (other than the cool free one) but they'd just turn it into a shitty 3rd person shooter with a lame cover mechanic
Cheers for the info....
Still finding my feet :)
