Magweasel, Ferreting Around In Classic Game Mags

gifmag.jpg We've previously mentioned Kevin Gifford's insane video game collecting habits here on GSW, so we're delighted to see that he's launched Magweasel.com, "a website that aims to chronicle the history of video game and (certain) computer magazines, as well as become a source of information for magazine collectors and nostalgists."

So far, as Kevin freely admits, there's largely just "a collection of unorganized cover scans and wiki pages" up now, with lots of awesome mag covers to randomly browse.

But some significant progress has been made already, including both the Game Buyer page, including detailed info on each issue, and a basic stab at the Video Games and Computer Entertainment page. Overall - sterling stuff, and we're looking forward to more well-informed updates soon.
