Escaping Into The Past

I haven't updated in a long time -- due entirely to work/$$$/space constraints.

I don't have the time, cash, nor space to entertain another coin-op project.

What I do have is the entire run of GameRoom Magazine in digital format.

It is the sweomes!

While I have every print issue of GRM since I started subscribing, which was prior to Kevin Steele's reign, I haven't been able to get back issues for all of the backs that I have wanted. I did get some of the more interesting series of articles, like the two-parter on Exidy (can you say Crossbow !!!!) and the two-parter on myriad Star Wars games, as well as past articles about Tron (man, do I need to get my butt in gear and get that running before December!).

What I had missed, even with my digging into the back issues, were the initial articles by industry vets like Dick Donlan. If I had read those articles when I first started out, my life since would have been easier and my games would be the better for it.

I've been reading and re-reading and, while there are different generations of the magazine that will appeal to people with different interests (Jukes, Pins, Vids, Vendings), the fact remains that I absolutely, relentlessly have to have GRM in my collection of coin-op reading material.

So should you.
