I had a subscription to GamePro from 1994 to 1997 or so. Basically from the 16bit era right through the passing of the torch to the 32bit era. It was an amazing time to be reading GamePro and magazines in general because that was basically the best source for game news, and screen shots. The 32bit consoles were basically bordering on voodoo magic in terms of graphical power, and all you could do was read the magazine, decipher the tiny grainy images (sometimes taken off a screen) and imagine how cool the game was going to be. I actually have a lot of nostaliga for the games I imagined in my head. Games that never actually existed in the way I pictured them, or lots of times, games I never even played period. I decided it would be a good idea to capture that weird fleeting nostalgia, and hammer smash it together with the cold hard reality of what the games actually were in a new series where I read through the magazine (scans), and load up many of the games to directly check them out as they pop up in the issue. It's fun to rip on games and call them bad with all this hindsight we have now, but I try to only dip my toe in the realm of making fun, and really just try to enjoy that a lot of these games were basically going blindly forward in an industry that was still very much the wild west. Even a bad game from 1995 is still almost a pioneer if you choose to view it that way. Sometimes though, the bad games just need a good future spanking, which I am happy to provide as needed. I can't think of a community that would probably understand or enjoy this series more than all of you. The community here is doing such a good thing, and doing such great work to preserve these magazines that were such a huge part of the gaming and gamer world just before the internet took over. I do the shows live every Sunday, at 9:30pm PST, and next week is August 1995, which is a full E3 breakdown. That year's E3 was absolutely on fire with the new consoles dropping and the old consoles fighting for relevance should be a good one. I try to make every episode an event, rather than just another stream. If it sounds up your alley, check out some hype videos I made: And check out the latest full episode, with a full July 1995 breakdown of current events at the start, to really set the mood: I stream live on Youtube and Twitch every Sunday at 9:30pm PST. I'd love it if any of you stopped by and hopped in the chat. I'll always be down for request or two :) https://www.twitter.com/Norrin_Radd22 https://www.youtube.com/NorrinRadd22 -
Howdy there! Had no clue this database existed 'till today, and I'm happy that my collection of game magazines I've held onto as a kid can be useful for someone. I never had subscriptions and bought all of my magazines piecemeal, so I've got an assortment of different publications. Not all of these are in great or even good condition, but I cross referenced to what was missing online. Here's my list, and pictures. https://puu.sh/EPwZx/5cda65258d.jpg https://puu.sh/EPwZB/6194900aa1.jpg Here is a link to my Google Sheets where I'm keeping progress on my scans updated: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fahYRFqG8HQkWN7nXUhgtjpH-vNNAdWrpuOfDKeoOZs/edit?usp=sharing In case the link doesn't work, here's what I have. The spreadsheet lists things like condition, and current status. I also have two issues of a publication I could not find listed -- Ultimate Solutions. Sadly, they're not in great condition, but it looks like it was created in the UK and published in the US?

I definitely used these as a resource when I was a child who didn't have internet and rented games voraciously. I'm just starting out here, so I'll read over the guidelines and tricks to scan. Feel free to reach out to me on Twitter where I'm easily accessible at @hunterkennoy if you need to!

For me I think it would have to be PC Accelerator... Its fun, irreverent and doesn't take itself all to seriously.. In a way it reminds me of Classic Game Room and CGR Undertow in a way.... and Star Wars Episode I the PCXL edition had me in stitches... But enough about me... Which was your favorite?

Hello ive read somewhere in these forums that the cut off date for defunct magazines is about 10 years.So my question is why the latest gamepro magazine in this site is dec-2001 (issue 147).The problem is about rights or about magazine shortage? Thanks in advance!!!

I'm wondering if anyone has the stand-alone issues of The Adventures Of GamePro... (?) (Apologies if this has already been asked. I did a search, & it didn't come back with anything.) I don't think I ever got to read them back then, but I always enjoyed the shorts in the magazine.

Hey, I wanted to know if anyone here knows whether or not Gamepro or Electronic Gaming Monthly had sections on other media like comic books? The time period I'm interested in, is from December 1991 to June 1993. https://www.retromags.com/magazines/category/usa/electronic-gaming-monthly/?sort_col=field_20&sort_order=asc&per_page=24&st=24 https://www.retromags.com/magazines/category/usa/gamepro/?sort_col=field_20&sort_order=asc&per_page=24&st=24 -
I've got a short run of GamePro headed for the recycle bin, issues 215-223 (2006). Anyone care to rescue them? I'm located in silicon valley.

Hey guys!! It's been a long time!! Just passing through to let you know that I'm thinking of selling my entire GamePro Collection, which is only missing 3 magazines (237, and two other in the 100s) The Collection has around 262 magazines, from May 1989 to Winter of 2011, GREAT for any videogame collector!! It also has the two GamePro super hero comics from the 90's, which are awesome. If any of you are interested, let me know, and I can give you more information. Here is a link for photos of the first 100 magazines. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.464522743312.233545.659933312&type=3

Phillyman's WIP - GamePro Issue 3 (September-October 1989)
Phillyman posted a blog entry in Phillyman's Blog
Now that EGM Issue 5 has been scanned, I decided to give Gamepro some love! Yet another early issue is getting scanned for preservation. GamePro Issue 3 was published in September/October 1989. Remember that we are still looking for GamePro Issue 2 as its currently missing! Should have this scanned in a few days, I have been distracted for a while but that is over with. Its now time to scan!
