You climb the finely chiseled stone steps and swing open the heavy oaken door to the Museum. You take a few steps inside... Directly to your right, a bulletin board spells out the latest news:

21 January 2012 Filling the gaps
I just completed scans of issues 180, 181, and 206, as well as adding the fabulous Planescape: Torment poster to issue 186. Thanks to Phil for sending those in. As well, I've added issues 214-220. This means that with the exception of issues 109, 111, and 113 (which I do have and will be adding later), you can now get at the CGW Museum every page of every issue of CGW from 1 to 220, a 21 year run!

I was looking at previous news items it was exactly a year ago that we started scanning issues past 100. 117 new issues in one year - not bad!
1 January 2012 More issues for 2012
Happy New Year everyone! To celebrate, I've added 20 more issues: 178, 194-200, 201-205, 207-213, bringing the scans all the way to April 2002. A few people have mailed me issues to scan - thank you very much. Here's what I still need:
  • 1999 - 180, 181 (someone sent them but they had missing pages)
  • 2000 - 186 (Planescape: Torment poster only)
  • 2001 - 206
As you can see, we're getting there!
21 August 2011 Move completed
The move of the CGW Museum is now complete. As you have likely noticed, our new address is www.cgwmuseum.org. All scanned issues are now online, and changes have been made to links/descriptions where appropriate. If you notice anything that doesn't work, please send an e-mail to let us know!

As we are now have our own hosting, there are no further download restrictions on issues. However, we also have to pay for our own hosting, so please consider a donation to help us run the site.

Enjoy!
Up ahead, passages in all directions lead to dimly lit galleries. From where you stand, you can still distinguish the framed magazines that you think may hold some of the secrets of the early days of computer gaming. You are sure that the Museum holds a treasure trove of information - perhaps you could learn about online poker or casino slots.

A stack of freshly printed newsletters sits in a neat pile on a shelf to your left. You also notice a few older ones nearby, no doubt discarded by previous guests. Further down towards the entrance to the galleries, you can see, and hear, an animated group of visitors talking and bartering. We’ve rolled out the red carpet for you at our online bingo room. Stop in to experience the way bingo was supposed to be played.

Closer to you, the attendant's booth is currently empty, but a hastily scribbled note stuck on the glass invites you to pick up a flyer for more information regarding the Museum. Directly next to the booth, a leather-bound guestbook lies open on a low table. Giving it a quick glance, you already recognize some of the names!
