Anyone's got a picture of UKs 3DO magazine cover issue 13?

Please.
I got the CD and I was pretty sure I got the magazine too, but I cannot find it in my collection, only the CD.
Maybe a cover picture will jog my memories if I even had the mag in the first place (As I have CDs 6 and 9 but no magazine, which I know for sure):
I know I'm missing issue 1 complete, and also issues 14 and 15 (I think issue 15 was the last issue, anyone can confirm?)

I'll have to dig my copies out - I dont think 15 got released but I know from memory one of them had a female swimmer/diver on the cover - which would have been issue 12 or 14
I'll check and get back to you!

Hey that'll be great thanks.
Issue 12 is this cover:
Issue 14 is this cover:

Did issue 14 have a cover CD? Does anyone know.
So what's cover issue 13? I know that I have that issue somewhere.

I'll have them out of storage in a couple of days but like I said one had a swimmer/diver on the cover and one was advertising MKIII on the cover - both were late in the mags life
I'll keep you up to date!

Excellent.
MK3 was issue 9, here's the cover:
That leaves the cover with the swimmer/diver.

The last issue had Robinson's Requiem on the cover (sorry I don't have a pic though) On a side note, I'd love to see scans of the reviews from the last issues (Olympic Summer Games, Lucienne's Quest, etc ...)

Me too. I epically failed to get any 3DO magazine mags. I at the time had a few copies but they all went many moons ago.

If someone can tell me what program is best to upload/insert scans on this forum I'll be happy to oblige!

So there might have been an issue 15 as well...
Any news on cover 13?

emailed the photos to the Kid today!
as for issue 15 I don't believe it exists even though details are mentioned in issue 14.
Unfortunately the same thing happened with the teams CD32 mag.
According to the guys at the amiga forums their mag was canned without any notice at all - no final issue , no goodbye , nothing.
apparantly the publisher was quite brutal and history repeated itself with the 3do mag.

OK, so no doubt, no issue 15.
But anyone's got the cover CD of issue 14?
And which issue had Robinson's Requiem on the cover?
BTW, I loved the mag, I was buying the mag back in the days even if it was (later) 5.99 at the time when all other CD mags were 4.99. I didn't even own a 3DO back then.

Hey great, thx for the pics. you're the man.
Now I know that I never had/have issue 13, only the CD.
That means I need to hunt out issues 1 (+CD), 6, 9, 13, 14 (+CD), 15 (+CD)

Scans, scans, scans please!
I will pay
good money for issues 13 -15 if anyone would like to sell (I'd even take high quality color copies)
Also, I've always wanted to find the 3DO gold issue. Any scans from it perhaps?

I never scanned an issue to be put online. I can't even get my gaming photos straight. The Gold issue has quite a lot of pages. I'm always willing to try though if someone has an idea how it can be done without me losing my patience.

Thanks bitrate - I did email pics to the Kid but I know how things are at this time of year!
First I've seen of issue 15 anywhere did they actually get to finish off or were they cut off like in the cd32 case?
I emailed 3do kid some of the more interesting bits from the edition I hope they were received at his end ok

mmmmmmmmmmm maybe its a size issue (snigger snigger) but they are in word format - Ill try again in the next few days as pdf and see if it works - I've had this problem before with both hotmail & google mail but no probs usually with outlook.
ps you're a brave man publicly listing your email address !
You'll have every purebred Atariyan bombarding you false prophecies - stand tall though because you are the 3do kid - Trip said so!

Will try my best once it arrives. If all else fails I'll have my tech savy wife give it a go ... she is sympathetic to the 3DO cause.

Mags arrived yesterday mattyg (thanks a bunch!) Sent a scan to 3DOKid earlier, if it worked I'll slowly scan my whole collection (minus #14 & #15 which I still need) Hope it went through okay this time ...
