Daz@RG Posted March 30, 2010 Apologies about the nature of this post, but I wanted to make sure that Romero fans would get to hear about it. Just wanted to let you know that there's a fantastic 12-page interview with John Romero in the latest issue of Retro Gamer and that he also guest edits the magazine. If you're a big fan of John's work then you really don't want to miss it. The issue (76) is available now from your local WHSmiths or Barnes and Nobles and Borders (if you're in the US). You can also download it via the Retro Gamer App that's available on iPhone and iTunes. retrogamer.net 0 Share this post Link to post
Bucket Posted March 30, 2010 I don't see it. This website is a goddamn mess. 0 Share this post Link to post
Maes Posted March 30, 2010 Smart money's on that this is just a "friendly" adbot. Too much commercial details to be just a casual Romero/Doom fan. 0 Share this post Link to post
Daz@RG Posted March 30, 2010 No I'm not an adbot. I'm the editor of Retro Gamer. I know I should be hanging out and stuff. But I'm so chuffed with the article that I wanted to let as many people know as possible. The reason it's not showing up on the page is because it will be updated thursday. I have a video of the cover here http://www.youtube.com/user/RetroGamerDaz?feature=mhw4#p/a/u/0/hYHAFsTXtCk 0 Share this post Link to post
Maes Posted March 30, 2010 In any case, Blogs won't get you max visibility on this site, as many people don't bother with them. Doom General or News would work better. 0 Share this post Link to post
Daz@RG Posted March 30, 2010 thanks for the advice. I've sent an email to the admin, so maybe they'll put it on the front page as it's a massive new awesome piece. 0 Share this post Link to post

Mr. T Posted March 31, 2010 So you really just want free advertising for your (paid) magazine? How generous! 0 Share this post Link to post
Vegeta Posted March 31, 2010 Romero is a pretty cool guy, if I want to know something about his work I can ask him on his forum or via e-mail. I remember that years ago I asked him about a wad there was rumors he was making, and he replied me generously. 0 Share this post Link to post

chungy Posted March 31, 2010 Looks interesting, if I see a dead-tree version around I might pick it up, although I'm not about to shell out for some DRM'd iTunes thing. 0 Share this post Link to post
Ultraboy94 Posted April 1, 2010 I just bought this issue, being a fan of retro gamer anyway. 0 Share this post Link to post
