The Dune Issue (June 2001)

He who controls the Spice, controls the universe!

Sadly, the only spice that Richie Shoemaker has any influence over are the chilli flakes that make it onto his Lidl pizza. Not enough to control much of anything really, but just enough to be able to summon Rhianna Pratchett, Mark Hill, Martin Korda and Keith Pullin (PC Zone’s one time staff writer, news editor, section editor and Dear Keith respectively) to talk about their contributions to PC Zone circa June 2001.

As well as cover game Emperor: Battle for Dune, the team talk about the games they reviewed but can’t remember playing, dealing with reader’s dirty phone calls and dressing up for issue 103’s iconic stealth game Supertest.

You can access issue 103 of PC Zone at archive.org or download the full set of PC Zone issues and supplements from pixsoriginadventures.co.uk.
