Title: Off target!
Post by: Lazy Dude on 21:11, 31 May 14
Having a rummage amongst my collection of tapes I found Moving Target - I seem to remember playing it years ago. Just getting back into it really! Not a bad little game I think.
Couple of things though - I can't see anything on CPCWiki for it and damned if I can find out which AA mag it was featured in. TACGR has it listed for download (done!) but does not cite an AA or Amtix review issue. Hmmm.......

CPC Games Reviews (http://www.cpcgamereviews.com/m/index11.html) have had a look at Moving Target as well. I haven't played it myself, though I was having a look at some of the Players games on CPC-Power the other day which look nice. "War Machine" always springs to mind as another nice game they did. :)

yeh I saw that review too. I was really looking for ones that were done at point of release like Mr Ship pointed out.
Don't know War Machine - will have a look!

I don't recall AA reviewing Moving Target, but the game came out in 1989, so there's a good chance it's in one of the magazines I haven't got like 41,42,48 or 49.


AA Reviewed War Machine in issue 51 and gave it 79%
