C&VG Magazine Retrospective - Part 5

[@JesterEric]

I think it was at its peak 1984-1987. I liked the Tony takoushi column. Switched to ACE when that started and the ST/Amiga Format when that came out with a cover disk

I have done a couple of videos looking at ACE too, here's the first episode: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJrOkK16hat8qaM&ab_channel=TheLaird%27sLair

So many memories! C&VG was the dogs!

[@guyzaiver3197]

Love it. Glad to see these old mags haven't been lost to the ages. Have you considered scanning/digitizing them for prosperity? I know there's at least 1 project online dedicated to preserving old magazines, including video game ones.

[@thelairdslair]

Most of the ones I have are already online, if I find one that isn't I usually scan it and upload it somewhere.

In the adverts section, the Arcadia ad, that was my shop in Leeds.

Wow! That's really cool!

Cvg was my favorite, the first one i had was the one with bruce willis in die hard on the front. I dont remember the year maybee late 80s early 90s. I had a pile of them which my mum threw out when i moved out, i wish i still had them. I bet you have bought sum poor soles collection which their mum or wives thrown out😂 back then i had an amstrad cpc 6128. The only games i ever bought where budget for 3 quid all the rest i borrowed the cheapskate i am😂
