The Computer Gaming World Archive Project…Is Complete

Among the various new topics posted to the RPG Codex today and over the weekend, this one captured my attention quite handily: the Computer Gaming World Museum has finished its archiving project of the magazine’s many issues; the entire collection is now available online as a (large!) series of PDFs.

Well, after almost exactly a year and a half and 33,544 additional scanned pages, the CGW scanning project is now complete. Every single issue of the magazine’s 25 year run is available online, from #1.1 in November 1981 to #268 in November 2006. The total, including the two issues of Computer Game Forum: 40,982 pages!

So if you’re keen on re-living the glory days of Computer Gaming World…head on over to the archives and grab a copy of your favourite issue(s) of the magazine. See if you can find the issue that came with the free version of Ultima 4!
