This is probably why so many people want to believe in an afterlife where they've got all the time and energy they need and money isn't a concern. Though I would hope that if life after death DID exist there would be more worthwhile pursuits at hand than finally playing that copy of Grim Fandango you never got around to in life, no matter how amusingly ironic that might be.

Haha yeah right. I'm not even allowed to have a computer at work. -
Electronic Entertainment Issue 013 (January 1995)

I'm sure the mag itself was in the same condition more or less. The actual scanning equipment used was different, so that probably contributed somewhat to the difference in appearance, but a lot of what you're referring to is due to what happens during the editing phase. Some people crop and straighten whatever pops off their scanner, slap an "edited by" credit on it, and call it a day, but for me it goes far beyond that. If I had to guess, I'd say that marktrade didn't do any post-processing of the images and what you see is more or less what came directly off of the scanner, as some people prefer the authenticity of that type of scan. I can promise you that my copy of the magazine was yellowed and even brown around the edges as well, but that's where editing/Photoshop comes into play. I prefer pages that look more like what they probably did when they first hit the newsstands, not what they look like after sitting in someone's garage for 30 years. It takes significantly longer to edit that way, but I'd rather spend the extra time and effort to create something I'm satisfied with. But I'm always pleased if other people appreciate it as well. -

Improved kitsunebi edition! This is a step up from marktrade's scan/edit (uploaded by dablais) which is already available here. While it was a good scan, this one is better edited and I've taken care to more faithfully bring out the correct colors. I don't really see any advantages to the previous scan, to be honest, and would advise anyone who has already downloaded this mag to consider replacing it with this version. Here are a few comparisons. Old scan on top, my scan on bottom: -

I hated that game so much. I had a really bad habit of always "saving the best for last" when it came to choosing which game to play next, so I'd always pick the ones I expected to be mediocre, never actually getting around to the ones I really wanted to play (inexcusable behavior, I know.) Thus, my copies of things like Super Metroid and Chrono Trigger remain unplayed to this day, but OH YES, I played Secret of Evermore from start to finish. If I ever meet St Peter at the pearly gates, he's going to be so confused. "Seriously, what the HELL were you doing with your life??" Maybe that's why I don't play games anymore. Or maybe Secret of Evermore is why LOL. EDIT: I'm editing this to say...I just looked at my post and realized it makes me sound like a spoiled rich kid who had so many games he never even played half of them, which isn't true at all. I played everything I owned as a kid, and never got games more than twice a year - birthdays and Christmas. But once I was in college and had a job...well, me and eBay had a reckoning, and I reckoned I was gonna get ALL the games I wished I'd had as a kid. Problem was, I WAS WORKING AND IN COLLEGE, so although I finally had some expendable income, I didn't have nearly enough time to play all of the games I could suddenly afford, leading to a surplus of games that never got played. And like I said earlier, my dysfunction that caused me to choose to play the mediocre games first didn't help matters.

Not to be a spoilsport, but commenting on old "new release" posts bumps them to the top of the main page (and bumps actual new releases off the main page), so perhaps we can just start a general "dablais adoration thread" elsewhere in the forums?

Speculation on what the American redesign of the Super Famicom might look like LOL: Though to be fair, who would have ever guessed they'd decide that purple and lavender were the way to go to appeal to Americans? -

Yeah, I'm not sure why, but so far as I know, the different display themes are only open to DB mods and curators...so, 5 people total LOL. Everyone else just saw a black stripe. -

There was apparently a SaGa Frontier 2 supplement which came with this issue, but my copy didn't include it. It DID include the second supplement...a sticker sheet of memory card stickers. Thank god for that LOL. A scan of some memory card stickers is even less useful than actual memory card stickers, but it's preserved for prosperity now anyway. Well, except for the few that the previous owner removed. I guess someone out there uses memory card stickers, after all. -

Kagayaku Kisetsu e (輝く季節へ) is an all-ages PlayStation version of an adult visual novel PC game named One - Kagayaku Kisetsu e. The censored PlayStation version has all adult content removed, including not just sex, but references to alcohol as well. It also features different voice actors than the PC game, and a new route with an additional heroine. The PlayStation edition was developed by Tactics and published by KID on April 1, 1999. -
I'd suggest getting rid of the black box that hides the "scanned by" text. It's not a spoiler.
