** [[Fanservice Cover]]: The final issue of Ultra Game Players (June 1998) featured a swimsuit-clad woman on the cover, as one of the features inside was a long-requested article about the hottest video game babes. Other fanservice-y covers include any cover with [[Tomb Raider|Lara Croft]], and the May 1998 cover, which featured Turok and a bikini babe hanging off him whose face was modeled after Pamela Anderson.

* [[Killer App]]: Frequent hype was common, despite a relatively-impartial viewpoint. They all but blew their wad with ''[[Battle Arena Toshinden]]'', calling it literally the "Best Brawler EVER!" on their cover after playing during some Entertainment Expo.

* [[The Nineties]]: Their decade of operation. They're also a major signpost of that era, going crazy over the most bloody and violent games, getting into the start-up of the Anime movement, and using that decade's lack of censorship to make tons of dick and fart jokes.

* [[Rule of Funny]]: Ruled on their letters page, which eventually focused more on joke-y letters about "Moogoo the Mangler" and "The Cleansing" of the impure and weak, than it did towards actual video game coverage.
