    Wow those scans are great!  :16:

    Nice comparing those scores to my own, mostly they are pretty similar but I think they were a bit generous with some of them!

    Nice scans... but I don't agree with most of their scores either. Almost everything gets a 7 or 8 for overall score? Classics like Alien Crush, Blazing Lasers, Military Madness, Galaga 90, etc are only getting 8s? A few 9s for the early CD-Rom games? And, World Court Tennis gets a 6?? Did they play the awesome Tennis RPG mode?

    I have a few issues of Turbo Play magazine around somewhere. From google, looks like the magazine ran for 14 issues in the US from 1990-1992. The Turbo's brief life in the 'mainstream'.

    It surprised me as well, that a magazine dedicated to the TG-16 was not giving all the games perfect scores.
