Doesn't look like any recent activity. No newsletter for July hmm  :-
For the record, Alien verses Predator on the Atari Jaguar holds a Guinness World Record!

To remove any awkwardness, I have mesothelioma. I don’t seek sympathy, just acceptance. Thanks

He may be doing it every other month.  If you notice, he skipped May 2013.

Yes, he does, and also states that it is an update of developments for the 2600 and there won't be new hombrew games every month so one must just be patient I guess ;)

I hope not.  I've been checking and haven't seen anything else posted.  If it died, that's unfortunate.  It is a neat newsletter.

True, but the good part is the site is still up - hope springs eternal ;)
