'Allo! My name's Richie, I'm twenty-eight and I hail from Philadelphia - the city about to be skimped out of the next Assassin's Creed. I'm more of a retrogamer, for lack of a better term, although I do play a few newer ones. It all started in 1991 with NES, but my real gaming memories revolve around Mortal Kombat's early years. I held a subscription to Gamepro back then, and scanning the magazine aisles in my local stores was required each month. I'd obsessively hunt for anything related to the Mortal Kombat franchise; I wish I'd kept all of those old magazines, but age, making Pogs, and cutting them up for posters served to ruin them. I searched for years online to try and find old issues, and then I came across this site. I'd downloaded a few before, mostly from 1993 through 1995 and all somehow related to Mortal Kombat and/or nostalgia. I look forward to learning more about this community and would also like to say thank you to everyone who has submitted an issue for download. I cannot begin to tell you how much I, personally, appreciate it.
I hope to become an active member of this community, as well. Maybe share my art here someday, who knows. But for now, hello.
