Edge 146, Feb. 2005

Edge is the name of a multi-format computer and video games magazine published by Future Publishing in the UK. It is well known for its industry contacts, uncompromising editorial stance (which has frequently given it problems in obtaining pre-release review code for games), yearly awards, and longevity. The magazine is very strict in its scoring; it was several years before any game was given a ten-out-of-ten rating, and the scores it grants major games are often controversial. In 2003 it celebrated its tenth anniversary.

The magazine's current editor is Tony Mott. Other regular contributors to the magazine include Trigger Happy author Steven Poole, Toshihiro Nagoshi of Sega's Amusement Vision and Digitiser founder "Mr Biffo". Artwork for the cover of the magazine's hundredth issue was specially provided by Shigeru Miyamoto.

Some of the content from the UK edition was published in the US as Next Generation from 1996 until 2002.
