Do you still buy videogame magazines?
« on: November 01, 2002, 07:12:02 AM »
Since I got connected to internet, I\'ve not buy many videogame magazines. Internet offers me pictures, reviews, and info for free and daily, so I think magazines now are not worth the money. I\'ve bought some of them because the demo disks...

Same here. Since I gained access to the net, I haven\'t seen the need for games mags. To be honest, I only bought them on the rare occaision if/when they were reviewing a game I was interested. Since I connected though, I haven\'t bought one. You can get the same info now online without paying, as you get in magazines worth between £3.50 &£5.00.

Plus the net has the advantage of being considerably more up to date.

Nothing used to piss me off more than buying a mag with supposedly up to the minute news, only to find that it was immediately obsolete elsewhere.

Meh, I got Nintendo Power for about 3 years from 5th to 8th grade, got 3 free players guides...worked for me :)

But yeah, I stopped a while. I\'ve thought about renewing it, but it\'s just not worth it. I\'ll just go by word of mouth and see what\'s out there.

EGM is the only decent magazine around now\'a\'days and their quality is questionable at times.

I use to be (and still am) a fan of the now defunct Gamefan. Now that was a magazine that was hip, stylish and had enough content to back it up every month.
