Hopefully it isn't the same article reprinted once again.

I didn't have time to read the article before work, but I got my issue in today's mail:

I just got a copy of this too - not particularly impressed tbh.  We get 6 pages, which is mostly pictures, and some nice interviews with Paul, Julian Rignal and a few others, then coverage of a few PCE games elsewhere.  What there is is a nice enough read, but it's hardly an essential purchase.

Also, that "review" of the NES advantage is a massive 2 page photo with a tiny box-off in the corner with about a paragraph.  I think they're just running out of ideas.

Yeah, the cover is awesome.  I swear they did another feature where they covered all the different hardware, and I swear I used to own that issue, but I can't find it.

I wondered if they used my interview thing.

It seems they did. I probably shouldn't post the entire article, but here are the bits where you are quoted.
