Later that month they would launch their premiere issue of DIEHARD Game Fan magazine.

********************************************************************************************
Thanks to Eric Mylonas (ECM!) I was able to complete my entire GameFan collection to be 100%!
Here are some pictures of the issue:

(Second run) V.01-I.01 (Premiere issue 2010)


GameFan V.01-I.01 (Premiere issue 2010) (x2 copies)

 


June 2001 Volume 0 1 Issue 1 (sexy cover)

June 2001 Volume 0 1 Issue 1 (unsexy cover)

August 2001 Volume 0 1 Issue 2 (never printed!)
Brought to you "From the editor of the GAMEFAN..." This magazine only lasted 2 issues before calling it quits. Only Issue 1 was printed and issue 2 never made it to press, but is available as a digital download in pdf format [here] ZIPPED PDF 84.63MB. It shares many similarities to GameFan including excellent Import coverage. The first issue has a dual cover configuration so if you don't like the Stretch Panic cover (and who would?) just flip it!
