Information

Amiga Format was the most prolific of all the Amiga magazines.

It was probably successful due to a good balance between game and serious content.

Good points

  • It had a professional layout with generally high quality editing.
  • It had a good coverage of Amiga products with a healthy mixture of reviews, articles and tutorials.

Bad

  • Towards the end reviewers tended to overrate games.
  • Redesigns of the magazine resulted in a shabbier looking magazine.

Goof ups

A monumental editing error was made in issue 36 resulting in an apology being printed in the following issue.
