After GameFan was out for a little over 2 years, a few members broke off and created Dimension-3, a short-lived magazine released by Dimension Publishing that focused mostly on PC games and the 3DO console. Tim Lindquist was on GameFan for the first 10 issues, then he became Production Director for Dimension-3. Greg Off worked on Game Fan until issue #24. He started off as an Editor and doing some production, and then was the distribution manager until issue #23. He was one of the Senior Editors on Dimension-3. David Winding started off as the Advertising Director for the first 7 issues of GameFan, then he was the sports editor until issue #27. He became the Editor-in-Chief for Dimension-3. This supposedly was their chance at going independent for themselves. They explained that since games were moving into the third dimension around this time, that was the inspiration for the name of the magazine, Dimension-3, but it only ran 7 issues. This group also published another mag at the same time, Dimension PS-X but it only saw a handful of issues. They eventually saw success when they renamed this magazine PS Extreme, which lasted many years. I really like this group of David Jon Winding, Greg Off, Tim Lindquist, Eric Winding, Mark Winding, and Joe Sutton. Most of this same group made another short-lived magazine, Q64. I've been tracking down a lot of their work over the years, and I have been enjoying it. You will see some similarities in this mag to the early days of GameFan, since several of these members worked on both. Thanks @Phillyman for donating and scanning this issue, and @E-Day for editing it. I only though there was two Dimension PS-X issues, so this might be a rather rare find now.
