message: The CGW Archive has gone missing and I can't find a new location or even evidence of people talking about it. Anyone know what happened? Tut21 16:29, 4 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: There are still torrents of it out there. Search the various torrent index sites. As to why the FileFront site would disappear; I have no idea... And Jeff Green never replies to me so who the hell knows, lol. --Swaaye 18:59, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

message: Should it be mentioned that the magazine is intended for mature audiences or better, young adults? They sell and advertise Adult games, the advertisements sometimes contain sex, profanity and violence. The reviews cover ESRB M rated games as well. Wings10 17:32, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps. They shifted away from adult ads almost entirely in the late '90s though. And they couldn't be a games magazine and ignore M-rated games. Many of the biggest hits are M-rated.--Swaaye 01:02, 19 January 2007 (UTC)

text: When you say "intended for mature audiences", it sounds like porn, and that's just silly. By those standards, almost all movie and entertainment mags would have to be "intended for mature audiences". If you're old enough to read at a high school level (for CGW), you've already seen far worse. Heck, mags for tweens show more bikinis in one edition than CGW did in its entire history. Let's not over-exaggerate terms until they become meaningless. Generally, publications should be rated Mature if they specifically target that audience, not if they're just covering everything. --RedKnight7 (talk) 14:33, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

message: Ziff Davis had a very popular magazine called PC Gaming World. Is this related to "Computer Gaming World"? PC gaming world is mentioned nowhere on wikipedia it seems.... Here is an example cover: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/46650453/PCGW/pcgw-42.JPG  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.67.69.8 (talk) 16:51, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

message: The article since 2008 has been tagged as needing "additional citations for verification". Although that is still the case as of mid-2017, the problem is less acute, as in 2014 I added several new references (mostly from The New York Times) to support existing content of the article. I just wanted to note that progress has been made since the article was tagged. I hope others will also be able to contribute further to keep improving the article. Thank you.(talk) user:Al83tito  20:30, 04 July 2017 (UTC)
