    Thumbs up New additions to the DP Library

    Now available for your reading pleasure--

    Magazines
    Near-complete set of Electronic Fun w/ Computers & Games magazine
    Revamped Atari Age magazine section with new scans and bonus materials

    Books
    Craig Kubey's book, 'The Winners' Book of Video Games'

    Comics
    Atari SwordQuest comic books

    Posters
    Over 2 dozen added

    http://www.digitpress.com/library/

    Plus we have more magazines and other materials planned for release in the very near future, so be sure to check back from time to time.

    We're also looking for any library submissions, whether it's scanned material or offers to loan us material for scanning (ex. if you see any missing magazine or newsletter issues, it's most likely because we don't have them). PM me if you can help out.

    These kinds of updates are appreciated, but what I'd really like to see is the new edition of the Classic Guide finally go up for sale! And perhaps a new edition of the Advance Guide, if it's necessary.
    I only need 2 more NES games (US)!

    It's coming this year, Rev (and everyone else). For now, more magazines will be going up, as that will hopefully help all the Guide editors with adding more info to their respective sections. Hang tight - lotsa stuff in the pipeline this year

    Also have 1 of 2 issues of Creative Computing Video & Arcade Games magazine online now.

    Oh my god, I loved that Kubey book as a kid. I used to check it out all the time from the library, and I was the only person who had in probably 12 years at the time. That is probably the coolest thing for me to see on here. Edit: though the link is actually messed up on that, FYI.

    I'm certainly on board to update that VIS section any time the guide is back up :P

    Great news! I've been wanting to pick up a Classic Guide for about three years now.

    I was always curious, why no Electronic Games?

    So are you missing any issues that the rest of us should be looking out for? If I happen to have any I will ship them right to you.

    EDIT: Most of the missing Videogaming issues are for sale super cheap at Mile High Comics, if you don't already have them:

    Any missing issues in the magazine sections that are now online (with the exception of Odyssey Adventure) are needed.

    Does that mean every issue of Electronic Games? I'm going to sort my mags in 2-3 weeks, I want to put together a care package to send you. So far that's a couple issues of Videogaming and any EGs that I have and you're missing. Those last two Blips are kind of a bitch to find!

    Very Cool.

    I could lend you guys some old game books and mags if you'd like. I'd be able to get the list later tonight. You'd have to pay for the shipping both ways though because I'm pretty broke right now and can't afford it. Send me a PM and I can help you out.

    I'm still not quite sure how DP works, but there is something I've always wondered-why don't you guys post any new reviews of older games? Is that just going to happen again or am I not seeing the newer ones?

    That's probably mostly my fault that there's no new reviews. I was going to try to be the editor but I ended up buying a house a year and a half ago and it has lots of problems we'll say, needless to say being the review editor got sidelined for me and I never got it going. I still want to do it but need to contact Joe in order to get it set up.
