“And not forgetting: Fidel Castro! Idi Amin! That bloke from Mozambique!”
from N64 Magazine issue 9 (December 1997)
Besides being a mighty fine magazine, one thing that netted N64 Magazine further acclaim was its great tradition of swamping readers in pack-in guides, cheat lists and other booklets full of goodies. Although most were a very standard affair, jumping straight into lists of button codes and unlock conditions, some went the extra mile… even though they really didn’t need to. I mean, people would’ve been glad with any Goldeneye coverage in the era before ASCII-free internet, but N64 Magazine supplied in-depth maps with pointers and highlights, a fold-out poster, and some of their best flavour text.

It’s been eight months since I post anything, and when I do it’s two years out of date. I guess I’m overdue a little explain-yourself, huh?

Out of the primordial sludge comes something foul; something depraved; something no man ever dared to see again on this earth…
… a new Random Hoo Haas update!?
Yeah, erm, this took way longer than it should half. There’s a couple of new Games I Own reviews, and a brand new General Writing all about rundowns and reviews of all the media I consumed in… 2012. I’m not gonna name names, but I think someone was procrastinating.
I hope to have another blog post within the week containing a bit of a catch-up. I haven’t done anything exciting in the meantime, don’t worry!
