In 2004, Future Publishing bought two UK computer magazines - Computer and Video Games magazine and PC Zone - from Dennis Publishing Ltd. for £2.5m. They did not make any changes to PC Zone, but they suspended Computer and Video Games magazine in its current form due to low sales, continuing the name for its website only.
