The internal structure was divided in eight sections:

  • editorial, which concerns general video games world's topics
  • column of readers' letters
  • previews of the most expected games
  • general reviews
  • hardware section, including a column dedicated to solve readers' problems

GMC had frequent changes in its publisher: when first created, it was published by Il mio castello editore, in Autumn 2000 it was passed to a division of Future Publishing, Future Media Italy (with many other editions) and finally from March 2007, it was published by the Italian publishing house Sprea Media Italy.
