WHAT DOES DIGITISER MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Digitiser

Digitiser was a video games magazine that was broadcast on the Teletext that originally billed itself as "The World's Only Daily Game Magazine". It started life on 1 January 1993 on page 370 of ITV Teletext before transferring over to Channel 4 in the UK running from 1993 to 2003. Updated from Monday to Saturday, during those ten years it gained a cult following of up to 1.5 million readers at points. The magazine was lauded for its constant use of surreal humour, which was often risqué, as well as its games coverage, which - while lacking the screenshots afforded by its paper-based rivals - could be some of the most accurate, informed, and up-to-date to be found anywhere. Digitiser was created by Paul Rose, aka Mr Biffo, and Tim Moore, aka Mr Hairs, both now established writers in their own fields. They wrote Digitiser together for the first four years of its existence, with Biffo writing more or less solo for the remaining six years.
