And here we come to the era where Mick McMahon... starts doing art for the Sonic stories. As you may recall, he did a great job on Decap Attack, and he did some amazing work for 2000AD, but hoo boy was he not the right choice here.No joke, when I read this issue as a kid I considered writing in to complain.

No more reviews from StC. Kinda weird to finally be at the end, but Review Zone seems to have been a bit of an afterthought after the initial flurry of reviews. Can't say I blame them - gaming magazines already had the market covered, and it's not like anyone gave a damn about the Saturn.For anyone who cares, Ecco the Dolphin got the most reviews (three separate reviews for three different platforms, not just lumping Game Gear/Master System games together like a few titles) but Sonic & Knuckles for the Mega Drive was the only game reviewed twice, thanks to a budget re-release.
>>12407442But everybody knows it was the romans that built those ruins!
>>12407634>StC glazed Sega so much, one of their lowest scores is fucking 70%kekI know they were an official Sega product, but jfc
Since my usual brace of five issues is now well under 150 images, I thought I might try reducing my overall footprint on /vr/ and start double-dipping in my StC threads.
