Electronic Games (November 1992)

Source: Electronic Games – Volume 1, Number 2 – November 1992

Electronic Games was the original video games magazine, at least in the U.S. It ceased publication in 1985 but was reborn a few years later (though it seemed a lifetime later at the time) in 1992 with the same main editors and writers. The November 1992 issue includes:

Cover Story

Players’ Guide to Football – Football season is here, and with it the 1992-93 season of football games. EG takes an in-depth view of what’s a touchdown and where the fumbles are. Included are interviews, new games, and instructions on forming your own stat-league.

Features

Light Out! – Join the Crypt Keeper, host of HBO’s Tales from the Crypt, as he looks at scary games. Okay, Kiddies. This may be one you’ll want to send your parents out of the room for, but if read properly, you just may get a-head.
Price of Technology – Do you hate to spend fifty-bucks on a video game? How about $60 or $70? Want to know why games cost what they do? Just turn here.
Apogee: Shareware – Shareware used to be synonymous with cheap, poorly crafted software. Today, that opinion is changing. Here is a look at one of the companies responsible for that change, and the products they represent.
CD Multimedia – Consider, CD systems for computers and video game systems. Are they here to stay, or just passing by?
Gaming On Line – In the first of his series, Ed Dille looks at America On Line and the new state-of-the-art games being offered to subscribers.
