Smash TV crashed into the arcades, Kick Off 2 kicked the other soccer games in to touch, Midnight Resistance impressed all and Italy 1990 topped the All Formats Top 20 Chart..." That was August 1990 and this is 'Back in Time' where we look at the classic video gaming magazines twenty years ago this month. To accompany our biggest edition of 'Back in Time' yet, with 20 magazine titles covered, we selected a handful of online articles from the magazines: Amiga Action's review ofKick Off II, The Games Machine's review ofVenus The Flytrap(Amiga), Computer & Video Game's review ofSmash TV(Arcade) and YC's review ofMurder(C64).
