I love the nostalgia value of old magazines. Although the demo discs are so so, in light of modern day accessibility, the magazines are not replicated, rarely digital archived. I did exactly the same with the PS3. As part of the collection growth, I made it a point to obtain every single official ps3 magazine and there respective demo disc. Then protected them all together in sleeves for preservation. They look boss!. I'll never play the demos..no need. They aint complete unless they're complete. Nice to see the ps2 mag complete.
Yeah man! So the story with this magazine is I couldn’t get gta but this demo had it somi just had to make do. That’s what we did in the 90s make do, hand me downs. I take it for granted now that I could get 30 plus games in a day where as back than it was like one a year especially for the pro evos and wwf games. I had to get this magazine.
Nostalgia is one of the main reasons why I collect retro games and action figures. Been picking up ones I used to own or those I wanted but never got. Your videos are entertaining, keep at it.
Ahhh nice one mate. Yeah I’m the same. Toys I had them all. But games I kinda only had a few growing up so it’s about getting them back. Did you see my toy haul video. Now that was nostalgia. It’s why I love car boot sales. I’ll always see something I had as a kid
Whilst i never had a ps1 magazine or cared for ps1 back then.. i appreciate it! As ive been buying a LOT of Official Nintendo mags and other game mags highlighting the release of pokemon gold silver etc just for nostalgia! .. it's worth the £6-£10 i spend on em. May only take 20 minutes to have a deep read through but for those 20 minutes I'm back in the 90s/ early 00s 😢 what a feeling to recapture.
Do you know what I like about this magazine is the Q&A asking about games release dates etc. and also seeing the prices of the games back than. Little piece of nostalgia this actual magazine is for me. Around this time I had a paper round so I’d put the magazines inside newspapers and have away with them 😂 £4.99 was a lot of money for a magazine back than Thanks for watching mate.
Ha ha that PSG top is a moody one off the car boot sale mate 50p! I’d not seen the design before so I had to grab it. Defo keeping the PES. Great condition and don’t ever see these slip cover versions. Thanks for watching man!
Gonna frame it eventually. I think my collecting habits are slowly changing to pure nostalgia at the moment. Alot of people are collecting what they once had but I can’t remember everything I had.
@@retrosmashtv bro i know exactly what you mean. At this point im just grabbing everything that atleast reminds me of what i used to have (if its not exactly what im looking for) i find its still cool to have alot of the random little things even if you won't really use them anymore. Like those miniature cheat books... i go crazy for those even tho you can find most the info online anyway. I still grab every one i see.
Yes mate! That’s what we do on retro smash tv. We open up nostalgia! Glad it’s not just me and there are others like me. I started collecting for nostalgia. Than lost my way but I’m back on the nostalgia grind
I've been buying and collecting the Official UK PlayStation Magazine since it came out and still get the current Play magazine. I have a complete numbered collection but there are still a few special edition issues I've yet to find.
That’s so cool, I used to get it monthly as I worked a paper round as a kid. I only got this one because it was the GTA one and the demo was the only way I’ve ever still to this day played GTA 1. I’d love to see the magazine covers if your on Instagram please drop me a message.
I’ve not played them. I’m trying to get myself involved with RE2 to see if this is a genre I’d enjoy. Currently playing GTA 3 it’s nuts I forgot how good the game was for back in the day
@@retrosmashtv Great game! Res 2 is great I will get back to it at some point I do get tired with puzzle solving mind it is a grind! I love GTA4 what a game that was
Im a GTA collector but i never picked up Liberty city Stories. I noticed it's super expensive now. Hopefully i can still get it soon. I have a poster for GTA Vice city that i can't find anywhere. It's the poster with Lance Vance in a pink suit. I don't know if its rare but it's definitely cool. I like to collect posters and canvas prints. I have a beautiful print of The Last Of Us 2 with Ellie sit against a tree with a mirrored image underneath. I'm watching all your videos so maybe there's one but I'd like to see what posters you have. Thanks for the video
I’ll do a video once I collect all the GTA games. I’m almost done. Got one in the post I missed from the previous hunt. But I’m really scared to get the OG game posters out incase I rip them because they are mint and doubt they’ve ever been opened but I’ll do my best to show them all. I’ve got liberty city stories just been delivered too. I also got China town wars last week. I did a video on trying to complete my gta collection but failed.
This one I just had to get because it’s the only way I could and have only played GTA 1 to this day. I needed it for the nostalgia of being 12 all over again. Well happy it was still floating about
See I love my retro. And I’m always retro over new but the graphics on the remastered are sublime. Really nice looking game. I still need to get into it though.
@@BmxGuyFromNZ yeah I’m on Facebook under my name Chris Chapman. Profile picture is me with a cap and with a raised fist. Message me on fb messenger mate
Chris mate I would recommend playing games as they would be great to watch 😊

That magazine with the demo is absolutely gorgeous

@@BmxGuyFromNZ my thoughts exactly. You seen my gta books I picked up recently?
@@retrosmashtv il try find the video now. First time viewer. I sent a pm bro
Wow, unlocked some nostalgia there. I rememeber that demo disc and magazine.
If i'm right you got to play GTA but for 15 minutes on the demo?
Yes mate! That’s what we do on retro smash tv. We open up nostalgia! Glad it’s not just me and there are others like me. I started collecting for nostalgia. Than lost my way but I’m back on the nostalgia grind

Never mind that hopefully that game gear has been boxed and posted by now surely 😂😂😂
What game gear? I’m not selling a game gear. I’ve never owned one or played one
@@retrosmashtvIts an inside joke mate with Wayne about his GG 😂👍
Got half way into res 2 but I prefer the fps games such as village and Biohazard I love that shizzle!

I don't like Resident Evil with flashy graphics I like the way they look on the PS1.
See I love my retro. And I’m always retro over new but the graphics on the remastered are sublime. Really nice looking game. I still need to get into it though.
