Matt Jones on Harkback
Being an 80’s throwback, I do enjoy your Harkbark feature. Strangely, I don’t recall the Codemasters games, but I do remember a brand called Mastertronic, who sold mostly garbage, but occasionally really good games for £1.99. The interesting thing was that these were sold not in Computer shops, but in Newsagents and Petrol Stations, making them accessible and affordable for kids. They were terrific value.
