    I prefer to remember Crash as that chunky well written and presented magazine with loads of unbiased reviews and news.

    The thing is, the publisher isn't allowed to publish roms for any of the emulators.

    Anyway, back on topic. Top magazine, a little short but it makes a change from the likes of Edge & gamesTM.

    Crash was a good mag blighted by a poor publisher. It was only after Newfield had so many failed magazines that Crash lost its way, first of all by changing to a tape-with-mag (rather than mag-with-tape) and then by trying to be like YS.
