Not only is AP2 a treasure trove of dense J Nash witterings that will probably make no sense to you, it's also a beautiful example of an internet that is long gone. Quite incredible that it's still online.

Anyway, anyone else still have a lasting distrust of Team 17 because they sued Amiga Power?

Noooo 😢 I like to think that, in some alternate universe, his name was as famous as Charlie Brooker’s.

If you haven’t read it, dive into AP2 (theweekly.co.uk/ap2/index.html), Nash’s love letter to Amiga Power. It is a stunning piece of work.

AP2

The ultimate experience in gruelling self-aggrandisement.

Ha sounds like fun! Beating the original is a long held ambition of mine (that I'm still wayyyyy off achieving). I'll have to give this a go. Thanks for the review.
