DVD Version and Discless Version
The magazine publishes two versions each issue. One is a plain magazine, while the other more expensive version includes a double-sided DVD10 disc, totalling 9GB of demos, mods and other content.
The magazine launched with a 640MB CD coverdisc, which was upgraded in 2000 to a double-CD. The DVD edition joined the lineup in 2002 alongside the CD version, and the CD version was finally dropped in 2005.
The November 2005 edition included the first discless magazine at a little over half the price of the DVD version. While sales were not spectacular, dropping the CD did slow the rate of decline of the non-DVD version of the magazine. May 2008 saw subscriptions being offered for the discless version at half the price.
The Bunker was a section of the DVD originally compiled each month by ROM, a respected member of the PCPP online community. However, following his retirement from the position (announced in issue #143), the Bunker undertook a drastic transformation and became the PCPP Community Bunker. Readers and members of the online community produced and were actively encouraged to submit to the section.
The Bunker was replaced in 2009 with a streamlined Application and Utilities section.
