Nostalgia: the CGW Museum

[Fatal_Papercut~SPARTA~]

I learned yesterday that there is a website that archives digital copies of "Computer Gaming World" magazine. Talk about a trip down memory lane!

** EDIT ** I am now reading the first article of the very first issue (and, so far, the only issue available for that year, 1981(!)). Chris Crawford writes about the future of wargames on PCs. It's a great read because it shows just how ahead of the curve Mr. Crawford was. The things he wrote seem obvious now with hindsight, but at the time, it was very forward-thinking. He was already predicting things such as RTS games before the technology to implement them in consumer PCs even existed.
