Step Back into 1995 with This Nostalgic Issue of PC Gamer Magazine

There's something magical about flipping through the pages of old gaming magazines, and this 1995 issue of PC Gamer is an absolute time machine for any gamer who lived through that golden era. It's not just the games that make it special—it's the excitement, the nostalgia, and the sheer love for gaming that jumps off every page.

This issue is packed with articles on legendary titles like Mortal Kombat 2, Creature Shock, Warcraft (like, the first one), and The Lemmings Chronicles. But the real gem? The "Games of the Year" awards for 1994. Seeing DOOM rightfully crowned as Game of the Year still feels satisfying even decades later. Then you've got System Shock taking Best Adventure Game, X-COM: UFO Defense owning Best Strategy, and Goblins Quest 3 snagging Best Puzzle Game. It's a lineup that reminds you just how incredible that year was for gaming.

But it's not just about the awards—the ads, the features, the reviews all feel like a snapshot of a moment in time when gaming was evolving into something truly magical. If you're a fan of gaming history, or just looking for a nostalgia fix, this issue is a must-see. Dive in, and relive one of the best years in gaming history.
