JohnSmith's Work in Progress

I just noticed that my thread for posting my work has been archived, so I'll start a new one. Is it not possible to "unarchive it" so I can have one thread for all of my work?

This the same line of magazines as Intelligent Gamer and Intelligent Gamer's Fusion, correct?

Thanks for the scan work, JohnSmith! Especially nice to see those EG issues preserved.

Kind of. I was a subscriber to Electronic Games LC2 back in the day and must have renewed my subscription just before the magazine ended. Fusion replaced EG and lasted only six issues. (RetroMags' magazine dbase has an entry for a 7th issue but I don't think it actually exists - my sub carried on with Intelligent Gamer's Fusion following Fusion #6.)

Fusion is a far cry different from either EG or Intelligent Gamer. It's fairly godawful, imo - I'm not sure why they felt it'd be a good fit for (former) EG subscribers.

Intelligent Gamer's Fusion is essentially Intelligent Gamer, btw. They wanted a smoother transition the second time around, I suppose, so stuck with the Fusion name for a few issues. IG is one of the better 'zines of the day - definitely worth a look.

Thanks for preserving Intelligent Gamer #8, JohnSmith!
