tricks and ideas of computer

Tips & Tricks (now Tips & Tricks Codebook) is an American video game entrepot published by Larry Flynt Publications (LFP). For most of its existence, the publication was devoted nearly only to strategies and codes for favourite video games. However, in late 2006 veteran game journalist/designer Bill \"The Game Doctor\" Kunkel was hired as a consultant meant to help improve the magazine, and served as Editor in Chief for the last nine issues. Kunkel introduced feature articles, got the entrepot an e-mail address, MySpace page and an official Web place while continuing to expand the monthly \"lifestyle\" features on video game-related anime, comics, toys, music and movies in an effort to shake the stigma of existence a entrepot only known for cheats and strategy guides.

Following the publication of the August 2007 issue, the entrepot was canceled in the wake of discouraging sales and ad support, despite the attempts to revive the franchise. The Codebooks, however, are presently scheduled to continue on a bi-monthly schedule.

A code archive for each current system was featured in the back of each issue. There were also strategy guides/walkthroughs for recent favourite games at the first of the issue. Tips & Tricks never reviewed games, but did feature a preview section. They were also one of the only video game magazines to publish full release schedules for each current system, in addition to their per-game preview articles. These release lists usually displayed the next year's upcoming games, sorted by month.

Tips and Tricks began as a spin soured from VideoGames magazine, which in itself morphed discover of VideoGames & Computer Entertainment, a favourite multi-platform entrepot of the late 1980s/early '90s. VG&CE and VideoGames like Tips & Tricks, were published by LFP mass the purchase of A.N.A.L.O.G., ST-LOG and other computer magazines from Lee Pappas in the late '80s.

In June 2007, the whole editorial staff of Tips & Tricks was laid off. All further publications under the Tips & Tricks name will be Codebooks containing strategy guides, features, previews, codes and Pencil Puzzles.

As of August 2009, Tips & Tricks is on newsstands 8 times a year as a Codebook containing strategy guides, features, previews, codes and pencil puzzles.
