Digitiser

Digitiser was a video games magazine broadcast on Teletext in the United Kingdom between 1993 and 2003. It was originally billed as "The World's Only Daily Game Magazine".

The magazine launched on 1 January 1993 on page 370 of the Teletext service on ITV before transferring to Channel 4 later that year. It was updated daily except on Sundays. In 2002, the schedule was reduced to three days a week (weekends and holidays) for a nine-month period.

At its peak, Digitiser had up to 1.5 million viewers. The magazine was known for its surreal humour, risqué jokes, and games coverage. It was advertised on the back of several issues of the multi-platform video game magazine Electric Brain.

Digitiser was created by writers Paul Rose and Tim Moore, who used the pseudonyms Mr Biffo and Mr Hairs. They wrote the magazine together for the first four years. Rose wrote the publication largely solo as a freelancer for the remaining six years.
