Electronic Games (October 1992)


Electronic Games (October 1992)

This issue of Electronic Games was the first issue in the early 1990s rebirth of the original. I quite liked this magazine but it entered an already crowded market. It was not quite as long lasting as some other popular magazines but it did hang around for nearly five years in this iteration. The October 1992 issue of Electronic Games includes:

  • Hotline
  • Game Doctor
  • Fandom Central
  • The Kunkel Report
  • Video Game Gallery
  • Software Gallery
  • CD Gallery
  • Insert Coin Here
  • Portable Playtime
  • Playing to Win
  • Test Lab
  • Lore
  • The EG Poll
  • Things to Come
