This is win. I had no idea Games Workshop made software for C64.
I laughed my fucking ass off... FRONT PAGE!
Was this stuff considered good art back then? I mean... Seriously, I half expect there to be a game about snakes, and the cover is just a chunk of red clay rolled up into a long poo like strand.
With that said.
All of these are mind blowingly awesome.
Makes me wanna go read choose your own adventure books, with those crappy covers too
Wow. That's all I can really say.
Oh god. The last one got me good.
HAHAHAHA genius!

I'm with Zen Albatross.. And I noticed it's not just Tower of Despair.. oh no..
It's Tower of Despair Turbo! xD
Warhammer online yet?
Haha I think the turbo refers to his abs.
DUDE what an awesome collection. I think you need to add BLAGGER GOES TO HOLLYWOOD onto the list though. The cover art for that was ridiclous
