mean machines remembered

During the late 1980’s to early 1990’s Mean Machines published by EMAP was one of the most highly regarded gaming magazines. It’s complete run lasted only 24 issues (before it was split into separate titles for Nintendo and SEGA), but readers will remember some of the memorable sections, the funny screenshot captions and of course the Mega Game of the month.

Back in the days before news blogging, once the new issue hit the stands it always was a guarantee that it contained exciting reviews and the news was always genuinely fresh.

The Mean Machines Archive has captured the essence of the magazine and has carried out extensive detective work in tracking down the former members of the editorial and design staff.
