Notable Stuff:

A subscription to GamePro costs $19 per year (six issues). Cover price is $3.50, or $21 a year, so you actually save ~9.53% off the cover price by subscribing, not 10% as advertised. (Yes, we're geeks. So sue us.)
If you convince a friend to sign up, you get a free poster (worth $4.95), but your friend gets zilch. So maybe you should convince your enemies to sign up instead, and give the extra posters to your friends?
"The secret to keeping the home market alive is clearly with quality products and a diverse selection," says Alan Fetzer in his interview. Which is why you won't catch companies like EA putting out new Madden and Call of Duty games every year.
The very first ProTip? "Never attack a group of enemies when there's a hostage among them...you might injure yourself!" Operation: Wolf summarized in sixteen words, y'all.
Before it became S.W.A.T., GamePro's cheat section was known as 'Secret Weapons'.
The screenshot for Wizards & Warriors II in the Short ProShots section is from the original Wizards & Warriors. What, you didn't think we'd notice?
The passwords given in Secret Weapons for Metroid and The Goonies II are incorrect and therefore don't work. Whoops!
