  5. 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.

    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.

  7. I don't know if you included it in your edit, but the poster is definitely 8 pages (4 pages front and back), as you can see in the VGHF's original scan file I linked to. Since the back side of the poster isn't included, I assume it wasn't a double sided poster and the back side was just blank. But a blank page is still a page. You can also see that it was stapled into the mag, and I think it's a fair assumption that it was stapled between pages 27 and 36. Having the 8 pages of foldout poster count as the missing 8 pages makes a whole lot more sense than someone forgetting how to count.
