25 Awesomely Bad Gaming Magazine Covers From the ’90s

July 6, 2012 by Jen Shaffer

Oh, my nostalgia. It hurts.

Computer and Video Games – February 1996

The font is so offensive on this cover it makes my brain hurt. When you first look at this cover, it's impossible to really focus on anything. You've got "64" yelling in your face and an inane quote from Hiroshi Yamauchi taking up 25% of the page. The half of the cover taken up by a total of fifteen words could have been used to, oh I don't know, actually explain what's in the issue.

Pages: Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 Page 10 Page 11 Page 12 Page 13 Page 14 Page 15 Page 16 Page 17 Page 18 Page 19 Page 20 Page 21 Page 22 Page 23 Page 24 Page 25
