So that magazine stash that one library was trying to get rid of? I tooootally went back and hauled off hundreds of back issues & annuals and this is just one of the items that might be of interest here. JOIN ME in traveling to the year 2000 by way of I.D. Magazine's "Interactive Media Design Review".
It's fascinating reading through what was included and why. What a non video game magazine thought about video games, for instance. What a design centered organization valued at the turn of the millennium. Towards the back of the magazine it switches to an uncoated paper stock w/ two-color print which looks and feels great. I scanned two extra items of interest there; a blurb on the PS2 launch in Japan and also a snapshot of the changing conversation about phones vs. PDA's.
(What I didn't scan was a Peter Molyneux two-page interview/hype piece for his next new game Black & White which hadn't even arrived at that point. lol it was smack right at the front of the year's Gold awards feature, the mythos practically being created in real-time.)
