I also have some magazines. I have the full Turbo Grafx magazine set and Im missing the first issue for the Challenge newsletter set. --- End quote --- Forgot to mention I have the entire released collection so far of the Walmart Gamecenter magazine. 32 issues and counting! |

Yes and yes! I love collecting them, especially RPG guides since I find them the most useful. I also have a complete set of US Dreamcast Magazines, nearly every Gamepro between 1995 and 2003, and almost every Nintendo Power between 1996 and 2001. I would really like to pick up old Game Informers mags between like 96 and 99 as well one of these days. |

Do you have any historic magazines about the history of each game and stuff? |

I feel like they are all fairly historical in the sense that they are being reviewed as brand new games and not through the retro game lenses they're look at through now. Also it is a real trip seeing all the ads for those games and how they really embody the feel of that time period and the gaming industry as a whole during that time as well. I honestly get more sentimental and nostalgic going through them then I do actually playing the games they're reviewing/advertising. Hopefully that answers your question. |

I love stuff like that. Collecting a free promo that many people wouldn't find any value in, but as a collector, you find value in having the series together! I have only a couple of issues of Gamecenter, but I'll think of you whenever a grab a new one. |
