Oh well, I guess I can rip up this renewal letter they just sent me.

Computer Gaming World USED to be a GREAT mag with legit reviews back in the day(80s, early 90s), then it really started to be ultra crappy, so it's no big loss. (Sort of like BYTE back in the day for general PC(and not just IBM compat) coverage...)

As a matter of fact I haven't found a gaming mag that I've cared for in years, and my old favorite for reviews online may as well be dead since yahoo borgified it, gamesdomain. Their reviews used to be pretty decent. (Same for general PC mags... just rags...)

Nowadays, I pretty much stick to just-rpg, and the news page of rpgdot with a smattering of strategy informer, just adventure, etc.

There is now a PDF archive of the first 100 issues of CGW available for free.

Yours truly is in that now famous cover story in Number 201, April 201

"Attack me, I can deal with it" - Derek Smart on Derek Smart.

...sounds pretty funny and reminds me to low standard yellow press headlines.

I think I've still got that issue and the issue where they obliterated the forced release version of Battlecruiser. Sad that Take2 still hasn't evaporated...
