Geeeeeze, I remember this mag. I'm glad to have it because memories, but...it was bad. It was reeeally bad. The only thing I distinctly remember about it was an article about being cool for women...which included advice about about picking the right email service. Because that's what women wanted in the year 2000. A guy with a hot email address.

Is the link not working for anyone else?

THANK YOU. I saw this movie in six different theatres and no one had any idea what I was talking about when I asked for this. SWEET CLOSURE AT LAST.

God, I remember this SO clearly. I used to daydream about having a room filled with Nintendo stuff.

FINALLY!!! OMG I'm so happy right now!

Video killed the radio star and internet killed the magazine star.

nice.

This was my favorite era of PC gaming. So much ground was being broken every day! I remember having to buy 3D Accelerator cards that were separate from your graphics cards, because graphics cards couldn't handle the load by themselves. And I remember "multiplayer networks" which were unified lobby systems that let you connect to other players to find multiplayer games, because game companies hosting their own servers wasn't a thing (whether or not it becoming a thing is a positive is a debate with no black or white answer). WON (the World Opponent Network), TEN (the Total Entertainment Network), MPlayer, Gamespy, and my personal favorite, Segasoft's HEAT.net (I still haver their multiplayer start-up kit on my shelf).

285 issues total, 248 issues scanned.

.

Just 37 issues left.

STILL pining away for Space Quest 7. Larry came back, why can't Roger?

That's consistent with my memories, too. I had their Duke Nukem and Quake guides. If I recall correctly they used to include CD-ROMS attached to the back cover.

Fascinating stuff. I had no idea. PC game makers used to make hint books all the time. Seirra even advertised their hint books IN their adventure games a few times.
