The Games Machine was avideo game magazine that was published from 1987 until 1990 in theUnited Kingdom byNewsfield,[3] which also publishedCRASH,Zzap!64,Amtix! and other magazines.
The Games Machine ran head to head withFuture's recently launchedACE andEMAP's long runningC&VG magazines. Unhappy with the profits from the titleNewsfield decided to end the title in 1990.
Newsfield however would, more or less, continue with a multi format magazine withRaze.[4] This new title would concentrate on the ever risingconsoles like theMega Drive as well as the establishedNES andMaster System.
