Hi all,

I have compiled an extensive list of press articles, previews, reviews, ads, tipps etc. about Transport Tycoon from all around the world, from the first mentions in September 1994 to recent retrospectives at https://www.tt-ms.de/presse.

Does anyone know or own further articles etc.? As you will see, the collection is not quite complete yet. I'm lacking a few magazines, that I know contain TT-related stuff:
  • PC Home 27, 12/1994
  • PC Power 12, 12/1994
  • PC Gamer (UK) 26, 01/1996
  • PC Review 49, 11/1995 or 52, 02/1996
  • PC Format 40, 01/1995
  • PC Format 46, 07/1995
  • PC Format 51, 12/1995
  • Computer Games Strategy Plus 55, 06/1995
  • Computer Game Review 41, 12/1994
  • PC Loisirs 9, 12/1994
  • PC Loisirs 12, 03/1995
  • CD Concept 1, 01/1995
  • Okaz 21, Jan 1995
  • Futura Games Magazine 4, 02/1995
  • User 56, 03/1995
  • High Score 12/1994
  • High Score 07/1995
  • High Score 01/1996
  • Super Console 28, July/Aug 1996
  • Gameplay, 1 Dec 1994
  • OK PC 30, 01/1995
  • Playjoy, some issue before 10/1995
  • Pc Play issues 6, 7, 9 & 10
There might also be further ones I haven't identified yet...

I'm also looking for the disks and CD-ROMs that came with the following magazines:
  • DOS International, 01/1995 CD-ROM
  • PC Games (UK) 4, 11/1994 floppy disk (TTO demo)
  • PC Zone 21, 12/1994 CD-ROM (TTO demo)
  • PC Review 43, 05/1995 CD-ROM (some demo)
  • PC Format 52, 01/1996 CD-ROM (TTD demo)
  • CD-ROM Magazine Vol 2 No 5, Feb 1996 CD-ROM (some TTD version)
  • CD Jeux 1, Dec94/Jan95 CD-ROM (TTO demo)
Does anybody have these, or know where to find them online?

archive.org sometimes has old computer magazines (including cover discs), have you looked there?

I have, yes. In fact that's where I got most scans from...
