I look at this magazine it is hard to believe that this came out more than ten years ago. Games for Windows was really a short-lived magazine lasting less than a years and a half. Computer Gaming World became Games for Windows in December 2006. Fortunately the editorial content didn't really change but the rebranding didn't help. The December 2007 issue includes:
Departments
- Editorial - Leave it to this guy to punch holes in the cover story we all worked so hard on. The Top 10 is a "lie?" Thanks so much, jerk.
- Letters - We love all our readers. Even the criminally insane ones. Especially the criminally insane ones.
- Start - What's next for Command & Conquer 3 and Europa Universalis? We've got the details - and an in-depth look at how text-based adventure games have evolved over the last three decades (hint: they're far from dead).
- Reviews - It's a good month for gaming, with Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, Age of Empires III: The Asian Dynasties, and F.E.A.R.: Perseus Mandate. Then again, games like Clive Barker's Jericho and Blazing Angels 2 aren't so good.
- Extend - After a two-issue hiatus, armchair warmonger Brucy Geryk makes his triumphant return in this month's installment of Tom vs. Bruce. And after that, we take a look at the depraved social makeup of a typically dysfunctional MMO guild.
Feature
- Beyond the Box - Valve Software headmaster Gabe Newell and his team open up about the development of The Orange Box's Half-Life 2: Episode Two, Team Fortress 2, and Portal. Plus: hidden Easter eggs!
Cover Story
- Top Ten 2008 - Our second annual Top 10 feature takes a look at some of the games we're most looking forward to in 2008 - plus a report card on how well our 2007 picks turned out.
