Commodore are known to be working on a RISC-based Amiga which will combine the speed of a new processor with the enhanced power of the next generation of Amiga custom chips. Such a machine would be capable of running in native Amiga mode, or supporting an operating system such as Windows NT. Next month in Amiga Formal we’ll have a feature covering everything you could ever want to know about RISC technology and how the new Amiga would work. The other machine in the pipeline is the A1200CD as revealed exclusively by AF last month. This would be a very welcome entry to the Christmas marketplace, but whether the new company will attempt to introduce it in such a short timeframe is open to question. No-one from the ex-Commodore management, still based at Maidenhead, would talk on the record to Amiga Format, but rest assured we’ll have a full report next month on the outcome of the liquidator’s decision and the brief from the newly formed company. SECOND ISSUE The first issue of Amiga CD32 was such a success that we're publishing another one. And so, from the makers of Amiga Format comes the second issue of Amiga CD32 - on sale on October 6. Just like the original, issue 2 will have a game-packed Coverdisc and will be bursting at the seams with previews of all the latest CD32 games, loads of reviews, tips and all the latest news. And if you get tired of playing games why not shove in a video and put your feet up with a nice cup of tea? Steve Jarratt decodes FMV, MPEG and the future of the game video. To make sure that you get your copy of Amiga CD32 you can fill out a shopsave form at your local WH Smith store and they'll reserve a copy for you. If you've got a CD32 then get Amiga CD32 magazine.
