Earlier this week I was contacted by a writer working on a new book about the UK video game magazine industry, asking if he could use parts of interviews that we did on the site with editors and writers ourselves.

That led me to look up his previous book and it looked really interesting to me, so I had to pick up a copy.
Already got a rush of nostalgia seeing the MB MicroVision in there. ๐Ÿ˜„

Ah, so I see that the writers were familiar with the place! ๐Ÿ˜‚

The only good thing that I can think of that comes from here is chocolate and "French" fries.
I'm really stumped to think of much more than that.
At least we have Larian Studios, so that's something to be really proud of. ๐Ÿ˜„
