This is both the final issue of volume 1 of Game Player's line of magazines and (in my opinion) the first true issue of Game Player's PC Strategy Guide. Long-time fans of convoluted publishing practices will recall that when Game Player's first began, it published all of its mags under the same umbrella, meaning that volume 1 consists of: Vol.1 No.1 The Game Player's Guide to Nintendo (this issue was also sold under the title Game Player's Nintendo Buyer's Guide) Vol.1 No.2 The Game Player's Guide to MS-DOS Computer Games Vol.1 No.3 Game Player's Nintendo Strategy Guide (this issue was also sold under the title Game Player's Strategy Guide to Nintendo Games) Vol.1 No.4 Game Player's MS-DOS Strategy Guide (this issue) Since Vol.1 No.2, The Game Player's Guide to MS-DOS Computer Games, was essentially nothing but a buyer's guide, this issue marks the first time the PC edition of the mag would begin to resemble its regular format of strategies, reviews, and other editorial content. With Volume 2, the PC and Nintendo branches of the mag would continue their numberings separately. A lot of editing work went into restoring this mag from the ravages of time, so I hope you enjoy. *Please note: The page numbers of the magazine counted the included subscription postcard as pages 114 & 115, but I have chosen to move it to the end of the archive rather than interrupt the flow of the actual editorial content pages. But rest assured that the mag is 100% complete.9 points -

I just noticed that they advertise "color screen shots" on the cover. That might seem ridiculous to some people, but at the time, the only other USA publication covering computer games was Computer Gaming World, which (ads aside) contained mostly black and white images.3 points

Star Trek: Judgement Rights (reviewed in this issue) and Star Trek: The 25th Anniversary are both excellent games. Make sure you get the CD-ROM versions, though. Having the original actors voice the roles makes it seem like you're playing lost episodes of TOS.1 point -

Computer Game Review Issue 16 (November 1992) Due to a page numbering error, this issue appears to be missing pages 28-35.1 point -
I don't remember this one being on Internet Archive, so GREAT find! This is meant to be their SECOND issue where they combined coverage of both Nintendo and Sega content. Before they had several publications, but this magazine was meant to be a merger of Game Players Strategy to Nintendo Games and Game Players Sega Genesis Guide. Originally owned by Signal Research, but they were shut down by investors for illegal investments. An investment group called GP Publications decide to revive the property, but after only a year, they were bought by Future Publishing from the UK. Future wanted to use two properties of theirs (Game Players and PC Gamer) to make their way into creating a North American publishing company, Imagine Media. The mag would change into Ultra Game Players in 1996 and last until 1998.1 point

Though I finished the first one, I never got around to playing Diablo II. One of countless games I bought back then and never made time for.1 point -
