BBC Reports: 'Computer and Video Games (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_and_Video_Games), which in 1981 was the world's first magazine dedicated to gaming, is facing closure. The title, which has been online-only since 2004, may stop publishing at the end of a 45-day consultation period that began on 14 May (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-27486867), sources said. However, its publishers, Future, are also believed to be looking into selling off the brand. The magazine is behind the gaming industry's Golden Joystick Awards (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_Joystick_Award), a yearly event held since 1983.
