Computer Games Magazine was a computer gaming print magazine. Before 2000 it was known as Computer Games Strategy Plus and originally it was founded as Games International in the UK in 1988.[1]

On March 13, 2007 it was reported that both Computer Games Magazine and MMO Games Magazine were shut down by their publisher, Theglobe.com, after that company was hit with a multimillion-dollar judgement in a lawsuit resulting from the e-mail spam of MySpace.[1]

A Greek version of Computer Games Magazine is still in print. This publication is currently on its seventh year of circulation and has been offering a covermount of full game (titles have included Resident Evil 4, Fallout 1 & 2, Icewind Dale, Hitman: Contracts, and more). The publication was originally owned by Hyperpress, a minor publication house but was sold to Motorpress in 2006 (along with the Greek version of GamePro magazine).[citation needed]
