'''''Computer Game Review''''' was a print monthly magazine covering both computer gaming and video gaming. The magazine was started in 1991.<ref>{{cite web|title=Issue 5, December 1991 Cover Page|url=https://www.retromags.com/gallery/image/6021-computer-game-review-issue-05-december-1991/?browse=1|website=Retromags|access-date=5 August 2017}}</ref> Also known as '''''Computer Game Review and 16-Bit Entertainment''''', and then later as '''''Computer Game Review and CD-Rom Entertainment'''''. The headquarters of the magazine which was part of Sendai Publication Group was in [[Lombard, Illinois]].<ref name="blc">{{cite book|author=Blair Carter|title=Computer Games: A Bibliography with Indexes|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=iH_FmamDQ8AC&pg=PA24|access-date=17 December 2015|date=1 January 2002|publisher=Nova Publishers|isbn=978-1-59033-526-0|page=24}}</ref><ref name=ct96>{{cite news|title=Lombard Publishers Acquired|url=https://www.chicagotribune.com/1996/05/09/lombard-publishers-acquired/|access-date=17 December 2015|work=Chicago Tribune|date=9 May 1996}}</ref><br />

Reviews typically consisted of a short, impartial synopsis of plot and gameplay, with separate scores assigned subjectively by each of three reviewers. Games were rated out of 100, and if the game received a high enough ranking it would receive either a Platinum or Golden Triad Award.<br />
<br />
The magazine folded in 1996, when Sendai Media Group was bought by [[Ziff-Davis]], owner of the competing ''[[Computer Gaming World]]''.<ref name=ct96/><br />
