Having said that, magazine scans are popping up all around the internet (There's loads of the current issues out there). So I will be searching every now and again and adding them to Underground Gamer so there easy to find and announcing it here.

A site needs to make you feel nostalgic (When it comes to a retro site) so without that it's just another forum (Although i'm not complaining because i'd miss it if it went).

Well I'm finally getting round to scanning in my 4 GM mags. They are 95/96 era.

Got to wait until I get my A3 scanner and I get a few hundred hours spare but hey, it'll be a few more to add to the torrent.

If anyone has any more for scanning let me know. We'll have to see how I get on with these first though.

Wow there's even the pre release sampler issue there, didn't know that existed! Nice find astracrest!

I've now got a stack of issues from the best era of the magazine, trouble is they are absolutely mint, never been read so I'm loath to potentially damage them by scanning them in. Trouble is they are getting harder to find by the day, I might have to bite the bullet and do it anyway :?

The sampler issue on that site is from Sega Power, I assume it's the same sampler that was given away with Total! which I have photographed and uploaded into the collections thread. Obviously the scans will be far more useful than my photos!
