CPC Attack

CPC Attack! was a short-lived magazine dedicated to Amstrad CPC 464 gaming. It was characterised by a strong comic-like graphical style featuring a recurring mascot - a Tank Girl-like character called Amy Strad. This was probably in reaction to the more serious and technical look of the rival magazine Amstrad Action. The magazine only ran for six issues between June and November 1992. This may have been because it did not have a cover-mounted tape (like Amstrad Action) and was devoted entirely to gaming leaving little room for other computer uses, but was probably also due to the waning popularity of the Amstrad 8-bit computer systems. The magazine also drew criticism for running features that promoted the new wave of 16-bit consoles such as the Sega Megadrive and SNES. CPC Attack! also openly dismissed its rival Amstrad Action within its pages on several occasions, which many readers thought was unnecessary and immature. Home computer magazines
