Talk:Amstrad Action

Untitled

This article needs rewriting to better reflect AA's wide subject matter. When it says "AA is 100 and one of the very few dedicated games mags to reach such a feat" - AA wasn't a "dedicated games mag". I spent many hours of my life writing non-games articles for it ;) --ChaRleyTroniC 15:07, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

The "dedicated games mag" was referring to that the magazine concentrated on one particular machine; the Amstrad, rather than multi format like CVG, GamesMaster et al. I will amend the 'Games' reference to 'computer'. You appear to have nore knowledge of the serious side of AA - perhaps you can contribute to the article? Nreive 09:12, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

Yep, I will, when I have the proverbial spare minute. --ChaRleyTroniC 15:25, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Are we allowed to put a Toot in the margin of this article? :) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.98.46.161 (talk) 22:09, 29 October 2009 (UTC)

Here is a better version of the first issue's cover: http://retro.land/upload/napi-retro-3044-.jpg

Incorrect timeline

CPC Attack! ran in 1992, not 1995 - and there were many items published in AA about the rival magazine. It definitely did not start up at the same time that AA closed. 23:52, 22 March 2022 (UTC)
