History
Within the UK prior to ''PC Leisure's'' release, PC entertainment news was supplied via general computing and multi-format magazines such as '' The One'' and '' New Computer Express'', but by 1990 the PC entertainment market had sufficiently developed to warrant the introduction of a dedicated magazine. In November 1989, EMAP tested the waters by including a free ''PC Leisure'' preview copy along with ''What Personal Computer'', and the feedback from this venture filled the letters section of the launch issue the following spring. In May 1991, ''PC Leisure'' became the recipient of the PC coverage originally published within the pages of the 16-bit multi-format magazine ''The One'', as EMAP decided to split it into ''The One for Amiga Games'' and ''The One for ST Games''. A number of the staff moved to working on ''The One for Amiga Games''. The final issue #9 Sep/Oct 1991 included a two-page special across pages 28 and 29 stating that the magazine was going to be renamed ''PC Review'' and released monthly from October 15, 1991.Staff
