Lovely review, awkward as it may be at many points :)

Noticed that. I wonder if Amstrad gave it to them?

I've never seen something similar from Amstrad. 


I wonder how they did that. From some photographs and then recolouring it manually? It's quite detailed and precise.

That's why it caught my eye. If they did it themselves, wow.

I had this magazine until recently, but Amstrad also sent out this review as a 4-page promotional spread. I still have my original copy.
