Hey all,
just picked up a copy of EDGE 'File'. Basically a collection of news features, previews, reviews and interviews from their first 12 issues (1993, 1994). Great stuff! I used to read Edge quite a lot back in the day, always hoping for some CDi bits and pieces (not much luck there, except for the occasional breadcrumb).. Threw away most of the old magazines, so this was kinda like a trip down memory lane..
but this is great! Big feature on Microcosm on PC/3DO/FM-towns (sadly no CD-i).; Quickly looked it over, saw a Voyeur preview and a Inca review for CD-i).. I'm kinda excited!
Its really Big (260 pages).. and chock full of retro greatness! Kinda expensive though, but well worth it in my opinion! Well.. highly recommended then.. just wanted to give you guys a heads up!

I read about it in the last Edge issue, sounds very cool! But where did you get it? Is it just available in a dutch bookstore?
