Taps for RetroGamer magazine

The buzz at http/plus4.emucamp.com is that the U.K's newsstand
magazine, RetroGamer, has stopped publication. It was only a few weeks
ago that RetroGamer said it would go to a bi-monthly publishing schedule
instead of a monthly one.
RetroGamer covered many different gaming platforms of the past,
including articles on Commodore and Amiga. Every month it would include a
CD of classic games.

Having shown the magazine at
the Commodore Vegas Expo,

More precisely Live Publishing have gone into administration. Ergo, no
more mags of anything from them.

Issue #18 with the Last Ninja series on the cover CD, and the Zzap!64
tribute supplement with it.

>From what we've heard, issue #19 was finished and ready on a DVD but
never sent to the printers to be duplicated on paper.

So is it true the reason the magazine failed is because they didn't have
enough features about Jeri Ellsworth?

Aww man, say it isn't so! I looked very forward to getting this mag each month
as a subscriber. I hope they can find a different publisher or whatever...
