'''Berg's View of Games''' (aka BROG) occurs as publication began by game designer Richard Berg. A magazine, which debuted around 1991 & recently went virtual, features reviews of wargames.

A magazine is known for its thoughtful however typically savage tone, refusing to suffer jerky designs lief. 1 Globe War II game had this read: "Playing this game makes Sisyphus' task a lark in the park."

Yearly, Berg's View of Games mitts out a satiric "Little Macs," which are then awarded for dubious accomplishment around play. A award is known as for recalcitant American Civil War general George McClellan,

BROG was inducted into a Academy of Adventure Gaming Arts & Design's Hall of Fame in 1997.
