    Default GamePro's Ultimate Guide To PlayStation Games

    Am I the only one in the world who owns this? I bought this WAY back in January 1998 shortly after getting my original PSX for Christmas 1997. The damn thing was way out of date before I bought it, as half the games in the preview section had already been out, but I read it cover to cover constantly. It consisted of the first half of the book being previews for games due out holiday 1997 to early to mid 1998. The second half was reviews of just about every PSX game released prior to October 1997. Followed by a code section for said games in review section, and a Tekken 2 guide.

    I've had this for over 14 years now, and still read it quite a bit for nostalgia purposes, though I also use it as a bit of a checklist for PSX games. I'm trying to find another copy as mine is absolutely beat to hell. I've used the ISBN/UPC code to search for it, along with the usual title search on eBay, Amazon, CraigsList, Half, etc. Basically all the major online shopping places. Bing and Google don't find me anything either. It's as though this book never even existed.




    If anyone here has a copy and wants to get rid of it, I'll gladly buy it.

    I believe that I had that magazine at one time. Other than that, I don't remember too much about it.

    Theres a lot of special release magazines from the 90's that are rare. Just keep an eye on ebay and you will see it pop up. Try to think of some more searches, theres lots of dumb people that dont list stuff correctly... You could also try contacting some of the big magazine sellers like billmarioman, guys that have loads of magazines that might have it even though they havent listed it for sale yet. For instance I have many hundreds of gaming mags I plan to sell but havent yet, but I dont have that playstation gamepro issue. It probably is really rare. I loved the 90's and all the gaming magazines, good times.
