COVER GAME
|
Yo Ho Ho Season's Greetings (etc). A Merry Christmas from us all with this jovial jolly Dragon Ninja game. Very Christmassy. Merry Christmas Martial Arts Destruction! (I think that's enough cheerfulness now - GT)

MEGATAPE 11
|
What a special Christmassy treat we've got for you! Two of the most addictive games ever created on one tape - Beach Heads One and Two! Two fabulous, award winning, arcadey strategical wonders of coding just for you. (That's enough twee sentimentality - GT). Plus Pokes, special Wooweee loader and berilliant playable demo. As a special SU Christmas present it's even better than socks.

FEATURES

PC200 Software
Well there may not be many machines out there but we thought you might like to take a look at what's available. (DEAR AMSTRAD, don't you think it might be a nice idea to get us a proper loan machine, I mean it's not as though we think we're important or anything, but we would like one ...)
Stars And Their Specs Part 2
What do Stars do with their Spectrums? We interviewed a host of the most famous people in the world, most of whom had Spectrums, and asked them about their leisure activities. Then we asked them about their Spectrums. Ha!
Afterburner Calendar
Not only do we give you a fabulous Coin-Op, we give you 1989 as well. Check out our fabulous poster with 1989 FREE!

SPECIAL IMPORTANT NOTICE PLEASE READ THIS. THIS IS SERIOUS UNLIKE MUCH OF THIS MAGAZINE
SU has received two letters from concerned parents complaining about the Motorbike Madness competition in last month's issue. Their objections referred to a 'throwaway' aside in the copy about inhaling glue fumes. It was a jokey remark, in keeping with the style of this magazine and we believe we know our readers well enough to feel sure they would treat it as a joke. However, lest there be any doubt about our attitude, GLUE SNIFFING IS NOT A JOKE. IT IS DANGEROUS AND FOOLISH. SU COMPLETELY REGRETS ANY POSSIBLE IMPLICATION IN THE TEXT THAT IS ANYTHING ELSE.
DRUGS ARE DANGEROUS. DON'T SNIFF GLUE.
WE UNRESERVEDLY APOLOGISE FOR ANY OFFENCE CAUSED.
