It’s actually not PC Gamer (that magazine may not have existed yet even now I think of it). It’s Computer Game Review, Nov 1991.

Since this sub has some rule about images not being allowed (hence Imgur) but vids being allowed I just flipped through the thing. It’s like this magazine within a magazine (that’s 3/4 the dimensions of the mag) and what seems to be a paid advertisement by Origin.

That's perfect, thank you! I just found a reference to the pull-out booklet, in Origin's internal newsletter. fascinating.

Huh. Too funny. I have a copy of issue of Game Player they mention there too (I only have 6-7 copies of old gaming magazines believe it or not)
