Great idea for a thread!
Without going around my parents (which I use as a free storage place) and looking, I'll try and dig into the depths of my memory....
..erm..darkness...right...oh yeah!
Oldest would be a Sinclair User. Had a full collection of these but gave them away when I got my Atari ST. At that age, you're not bothered about hoarding stuff, that mental illness comes on with age! One however survived the culling - it has a pixelated Tarzan swinging through the jungle on the front cover with a yellow background!
Erm, next oldest will be issue 1 of the Games Machine. I have a few issue 1's from various mags, but this one is the oldest I think. Bought it at an Airport with my parents to read on the plane. It was our very first holiday abroad and the memory is still vivid. I can even picture the front cover. I remember listing the games I wanted for the ST when I got back from our hols. Those were the days.
Great memories.
Amiga wise probably this one I've just found. ST/Amiga Format issue 1 July 88
I've also some Atari users from may 85 onwards and some Dragon mags too
:coffee: 9 hours and still rendering.....

Wow! Issue 1 of ST/Amiga Format. Nice. I've only got it from issue 8.
As for the earliest magazine I own. That is a difficult one. I think it could be a PC World magazine from 1984, featuring the Amstrad CPC 464.
If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!
I've got an early issue of Amiga Computing (issue 3 I think) from about the same time as that ST/Amiga Format issue.
I also own the first issue of Amiga Format from August 1989
I've lost my smile again...
Mine is January 1991 Amiga Format.
I think mine is a number of CVG, I believe released in 1991
