It is with great regret that we learnt today of the potential closure of the gaming website CVG. Having been announced in a statement the website’s owners, Future plc, are entering into a forty-five day consultation period which may see the selling off of the site’s brand and its eventual shutdown. Beginning in 1981 Computer & Video Games, as it was then known, started out life as the world’s first gaming-orientated magazine. While other publications were generally devoted to the hardware of computing, CVG declared itself fun and entertaining.
