Legacy News #1273

Since that git Swizzle stole my format, I was going to steal his. But it turns out that talking about something completely unrelated for a paragraph, briefly mentioning updates and then making vague hints about a tenuously promised future project isn't that entertaining. So I decided not to.

What I'll talk about instead is how everyone in the UK should go and pick up issue #159 of the recently relaunched magazine, PC Zone. The one you want is the October issue with Quake 4 on the cover and a demo of Dungeon Siege II on the DVD. Turn to page 128, and read the shiny three page feature all about abandonware. It doesn't suck, it gets all the main points right, it talks to people on both sides of the fence and even links to a few sites! Abandoneer, BHLegend and Game:Collection get their site URLs printed. Home of the Underdogs (big surprise) gets their site mentioned in the main article. Res goes one step further, getting himself quoted as well as having Classic Gaming Archive linked. And finally, determined not to be outdone, Kosta managed to get a link, various quotes and an entire boxout all to himself - complete with the Abandonia site logo.

Nice one, people!

EDIT: Go see the post at Da Fast Lane for scans. Also, please don't break my little blog
