Default Bring back Mean Machines!

Back in the day, Mean Machines really was the best games magazine around. Perhaps my nostalgia is heightening my adulatory perspective, but I used to ravish every page as soon as I got it, and it was as much a part of my childhood as the games that it featured. I'll never forget the issue in which the dismal Road Fighter for the NES got 9/100. When you're eight years old, that sort of thing is truly mind-bending. Bring back Mean Machines! I'd buy it.

Surely if the expletives are not auto-censored then they're acceptable?

Your logic is flawed, and don't call me Shirley.

No, they're not. We don't have a censor because as of now, it's not needed. Your post has been edited, please cease the use of such language. You have been warned.

Yes, I would like to know what mang is?

Because one of the forum rules is not to insult someone. So, is it an insult? Or did you just mean "man"?

Nice one, I'll be checking that out! I'll never forget the issue when Rich was accused of having a 'council cut'...
