*  PART 1  - EDITORIAL AND NEWS  *
**********************************

Welcome  to  the third issue of Emulate! A
slightly   reduced  issue  this  month  in
preperation for a bumper Christmas special
coming your way in the middle of December.
Nevertheless,  there  is  still  loads  of
articles  for you to enjoy. We take a look
at  another  popular Speccy character, the
Magic  Knight,  including  tips  for three
games  in  the series. We have a selection
of  reviews,  both up-to-date and classic!
Also,  there is a new quiz section, Part 1
of  an  excellent  A-Z book database, plus
all    the   regulars,   including   tips,
adventures,  Review  guide,  charts and of
course,  loads  of  high-quality  games to
keep  you  occupied  in  the  long  winter
months!  This month sees another exclusive
JSW  game,  in  which you can re-enter the
Manic Mine! Read on!.....

EMULATE! ON THE WEB

Great  news  this  month is that this very
magazine is now available as a site on the
WWW. This excellent site (even if I do say
so  myself)  has  been  kindly compiled by
Damian  Burke.  It includes all the things
not  possible  in  this text only edition,
including  screenshots  of  games,  direct
links to Internet sites mentioned, as well
as  far  superior presentation! Point your
web browser at this site immediately!! :
HTTP://www.cs.bham.ac.uk/~dmb/speccy
                       /emulate/index.html

==========================================

NEW FTP SITE?

News  perhaps of a new FTP site from which
to  download  your favourite Speccy games,
utilities  and  documents!  There may be a
chance  of  a special directory devoted to
the  Speccy  of Demon's FTP site, which as
users  will  know,  is  very  reliable and
fast.  I  am  currently  talking  to Demon
about  the  proposal  and  will  keep  you
posted!

MOVING HOME

Stephen  Smith,  author  of  the  Spectrum
Games  Faq  and  maintainer  of the Speccy
Database  has moved his base of operations
over   to  NVG  UNIT.  All  the  sites  he
maintained   can   be  accessed  from  the
following                         address:
HTTP://nvg.unit.no/spectrum/stevo
                    /stevowww/stevowww.htm
Unfortunately,  the  links  do not work as
yet  -  see  the  Internet  section of the
magazine  for  more  details on the actual
addresses.
This  page includes links to the database,
faq  plus  quite  a  few  other  pages  of
interest  to  Spectrum  users, such as the
Sinclair  User  Top  50 games of all time.
Certainly worth checking out!
