Whoever listed those doesn't really have a clue. Those aren't any 3DO Club anything. That magazine was a general systemwide magazine. Look at the top and bottom of each issue. PC/Mac, 3DO, emerging tech... Some of them don't even list the 3DO anymore.
The name certainly would fit very well with the 3DO, but that mag is about as 3DO specific as Gamefan was. I wouldn't be surprised if the ones that don't list the 3DO don't have a single 3DO mention in them anymore. I do like the name however. Should have been a 3DO mag.

Not sure what "Dimension" is, but as for the other two ...
3DO Club News was a b&w mag, that 3DO sent out to people who signed up & registered their system & or certain software. They are short (16 pages I think, although I only have a few of them) and tend to have a small letters section, previews of mostly Studio 3DO games, a few codes etc ... They are nice collectabiles, but pretty lean on content ...
3 was a bimonthly mag devoted to 3DO. The reviews tend to be
very detailed (sometimes almost to a fault) but the quality of writing varied by reviewers. Sadly, its a pretty sloppy looking mag in terms of layout, pics, fonts, etc ... I like em, but the can't compare to the UK 3DO mags.

There is an image from 3DO Club News that I would like a high-res scan of (just a piece of artwork) for a special project. If I can look up where it was do you thing you could scan it for me?

If it's an issue I have I'd be glad to.

Issue 1, Page 13, Insider Info, the illustration in the Maximizing The Power paragraph. I would probably need it scanned at more than 600dpi.
