That is soo cool! I'm always looking for scans of vintage game and computer magazines. Do you have them in pdf as well?
Wish list: Galaga, Pacman, Pooyan, Star Wars cockpit, Gauntlet, Tron

And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.

Been hoping for Electronic Games magazines to show up on the net. See them on eBay , but they are always single issues priced way to high for me to ever consider.

Those were very good along with Electronic Fun with Computers and Games.

I got the real deal.  :)  Lots of Electronic Games mags, along with some Joystick and Electronic Fun with Computers and Games.  They are all that remains of my classic gaming collection.  I bought 'em and kept 'em all from back in the day.  Way cool.   8)

Nice.

I probably had almost every issue of EG back in the 80's. Unfortunately, I was not fortunate enough to have the foresight to hang on to them.  :badmood:

Heh.  Wish I could claim foresight - more of just an anal packrat thing.  (insert gerbil joke here)
