    Source: Electronic Gaming Monthly – May 1993

    Electronic Gaming Monthly was my second favorite gaming magazine behind VideoGames & Computer Entertainment. It was close though. EGMs sheer volume was amazing and they did a better job of covering new and upcoming games and systems including rumors than anyone. One of the earliest issues I bought had detailed coverage of the upcoming Super Nintendo CD add-on. Alas, that never came to pass. The May 1993 issue includes:

    VideoGames & Computer Entertainment was always my favorite gaming magazine. While it wasn’t necessarily the best in terms of import coverage or having the very latest up to the minute news, it more than made up for it with detailed reviews and in-depth articles. The April 1993 issue includes:

    Features

    • The Quest for the Statues: A Player’s Guide to Ys III, Part I – In this first part, we’ll show you how to clear out the mine, rescue all the people and gather the many mysterious statues.
    • Learning with Games: Entertainment Games That Teach – Home educational software is a mixture of accomplishment of high concept and disappointing sales returns. Join us as we look at some titles that have tried to bridge the barrier between game playing and education.
    • Electronic Gaming Comedy: Humorous Games – Games in 1992 are not only better, but are also more likely to get laughs. Take a look at some games that will make your system guffaw.
