Abstract

After about two years, the magazine was revamped and changed publisher to Air Age Media, where it began to specialize in computer multiplayer gaming coverage. The magazine was briefly renamed Computer & Net Player in 1997.
The magazine also begat a computer gaming website, OGR.com (Online Gaming Review). At the end of its run, Computer & Net Player was renamed OGR Magazine to align with the increasingly popular website.
