  • Crap Games Competition / Your Sinclair

    From Rich Pelley@21:1/5 to All on Wed Feb 22 12:18:03 2023
    Hi, Spec-chums!

    It's Rich Pelley here. Of Crap Games Corner "fame". Hurrah! Wibble. [Get on with it - Ed].

    Have you ever entered the annual Crap Games competition? Or hosted it? Or even know what it is?

    Did you read Your Sinclair? Did one of your games ever get featured in the original Crap Games Corner? Or did you just like it? Or even just remember it?

    If you have any idea what I'm talking about I'd love to hear from you for a bit feature I am writing for The Guardian. I will happily exchange any help for a YS Trainspotter Award.

    Thank you!

    Entered it for the first time this year, not sure why I never entered in the 80's when Your Sinclair was the only magazine of choice and I wrote plenty of crap games :)

    Most 80's homebrew Speccy games were crap. But then again, so were a lot of US Gold titles, lol!!
