Commodore Zone PDF Collection (C64)

Commodore Zone, the classic C64 mag from the 1990's is BACK! This PDF collection features newly scanned hi-res digital versions of all 16 issues of the mag that were produced between 1995 and 2001.

The collection also includes special new versions of each issue recreated from the original work files with full colour screenshots, enhanced layouts and re-imagined full colour front covers.

Commodore Zone offers a fascinating insight into the C64 scene in the mid 1990's. It was produced as a replacement for the off-the shelf magazines like Commodore Force and Commodore Format that were being discontinued at that time.

Each issue of the magazine is packed with interesting C64 related features including coding tutorials, a C64 history feature, C64 emulator reviews, game reviews, PD reviews, game tips from Warren 'Waz' Pilkington. There's also a regular Where are they now? feature from Andy 'Commodore Format' Roberts and the brilliant Games that Weren't feature by Frank Gasking. This went on to become the popular website we all know and love.

The magazine is also well-remembered for it's C64 celebrity interviews. These include chats with Ben Daglish, Simon 'Mega Apocalypse' Nichols, Martin Galway, Rob Hubbard, Jeroen Tel, Tim Follin, Manfred Trenz, Anthony 'Last Ninja' Lees and many more!

As well as all 16 issues of the magazine, this collection features all 16 of the fantastic covermount disks in .D64 format. Each coverdisk is packed with C64 games & demo's, many of which were produced exclusively for the magazine!
