Really enjoyed this issue - great chat with Gary, loads of fun stuff about one of my all time favourite games.

FREEZE64 is a gem (no pun intended), keep it up!

Prototype was simply one of the most amazing games. Seriously. Until ps4 spiderman came out, there was nothing like it.

Oddly, prototype 2 was kind of arse.

I can't tell if the insanely large amount of overwhelmingly ai-positive articles saying "programmers are toast, all ICs will just manage bot farms" is just because I've been depressively doom-reading them, if it's real, or if someone is spending money to make it seem real.

So depressing.
