Loadstar (a C64 magazine) for me is still the gold standard for magazines on disk. Every issue was a pleasure and so well put together.

That was my experience. For the recent rerelease I took my kids to see it for the first time in the theater. And we were treated to 20 minutes of spoilers before the movie started.…
