Last month, GamesMaster released its 250th issue. For its May 2012 edition, the magazine celebrated the accomplishment by compiling a list of the top 250 greatest gaming moments.

We have the list below, but you can pick up the the latest issue now and read about why GamesMaster made each selection. And beware of spoilers – even though most of these games have been out for years, some of these moments do mention important happenings such as character deaths.


Update: Bumping to the top of the page with more scans, with more possibly on the way.

We’ll keep this post updated with any additional scans that come in.



Back in October 2003, Nintendo filed a patent for game emulation. The US Patents and Trademarks Office approved the filing nearly ten years later.

According to Engadget, “built-in displays and accompanying software on external computing devices” are included in the patent.

Maybe we’ll see Nintendo emulators on airlines one day. Or maybe not.
