And now for something (a bit) different: http://www.abandonware-magazines.org which is a French website offering scans of vintage French gaming/computer magazines from the 80s and 90s.

You can download full issue scans, but please don't download more than one issue at a time.

Only thing: the site is in French only, but I'm sure you guys will have no problem recognizing the words magazine, Amstrad, Atari, PC... :)

Enjoy!!!

BTW, if there's something on the site that you don't understand, just let me know, and I can tell you what it means.

I sure wish there were a site as comprehensive as this one for vintage American gaming magazines!!!

Hmm... No Consoles+ ?

(I was frantically searching for that one a while back.)

Link does not work.

Hmm.

Well, I am using Firefox so could be that?

For some reason, the French and the British seem to do do a much better job of archiving information about retro games than we Americans do. All we ever seem to keep a record of is all the cheats, with very few exceptions.

If you need a good site translator, this is the one that I use:
