What mysteries lie Between the Scanlines?
Hi! I'm Sasha, a budding retro gaming historian, AV hardware and media collector and enthusiast, and editor of a new fortnightly fanzine, Between the Scanlines.
I have a particular fondness for PS1, PS2, Mega Drive, and Commodore Amiga. so I'll be gushing about those frequently!

On the 25th anniversary of Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time's release... if you snoozed a month earlier, you'd have lost out on one of the Gold Cart releases!
Happy birthday, Ocarina of Time!

Lara Croft's debut, pointy boobs an' all. And featuring the most amazing 3D environments I'd ever seen at the time. Wouldn't be until Minecraft that I'd have quite the same feeling again of exploring a hushed, subterranean world.

Taking a break from RPGs after taking the world by storm with FFVII, Squaresoft decided to turn their hand to... shmups?!
But what a talent for it they displayed! I've been sinking some quality time this afternoon into this lovely shmup and charmed by it all over again. Absolutely love the selective destructibility of bosses and how the weapon systems work.

@64bithero xD Yeah, I think the thought was it's just going to head to all platforms until the exclusivity deal went down.
I think a Halo release on PS2 would have looked a bit rough. Definitely benefited from the extra processor and graphical horsepower of the Xbox.

January 2000 - PLAY Magazine.
A time when Halo hadn't yet been confirmed for Xbox exclusivity and was still potentially a third-person shooter.
Halo on PS2, too? Could have come to pass.
