Emulate #05

**********************************

Welcome to another issue of the Speccy magazine Emulate!

I am thinking of making a few changes to the magazine over the next few months to improve both it's general appearance and also it's annoying irregularity. I have decided that after issue 6, I will be reducing the size of the magazine slightly. By doing this, I hope to be able to release a new magazine EVERY month, rather than every 6-8 weeks. I am sure this won't make too much difference, as you will still be getting the same content, but just more regularly, which should please some of you!

Another change I am thinking of making is to produce a Spectrum version of Emulate which can be viewed on any Emulator and maybe include things such as screenshots, small games etc...

This issue has quite a few features to take a look at. We have solutions to both Three Weeks in Paradise and The Time Machine. Due to popular demand, I have also included the elusive controls to that game!

There is an expanded section on Internet resources. I have recently been searching the web and I think I have come up with a pretty comprehensive guide to most Speccy sites.

There is also a guide to some Spectrum FTP sites, which includes details of both their content and the speed of the connection!

So...what are you still reading this boring bit for?

SNAPSHOT REQUESTS

Another list of reader's requests. The list is getting quite long now, so if you have received the game you are looking for, please let me know so I can remove your name from the list! I have trimmed the list slightly and the list below indicates games which I don't think are currently available from the FTP sites.
