Games Magazines?

Post Reply New Topic

What games magazines do you read regularly?

I find the internet isn't really full of good writers but in magazines I usually find a much better standard of English and better critical skills. I tend to trust the magazines more than websites like IGN and Gamespot.

I read PC Gamer UK, GamesTM and Edge Magazine. I also occasionally pick up PC Gamer US, PC Zone and EGM. I find any of the single format magazines are hopelessly biased and can't be relied upon for independent views.

I read Game Informer. IMO it's varied and has good reviews.

I like Nintendo Power. I don't really like Gameinformer anymore. I gave the new issues away recently on Craigslist. I keep getting them because I have a Gamestop card.

I get EGM. Good stuff

Used to get Nintendo Power, PC Games, and Computer Gaming World (loved the demo discs), but don't get them anymore. Prettymuch anything I need I can just get on the Internet these days.

I read a range of Xbox 360 magazines, there not necesery but if there is something in the issue I want to know about then I will get it. I like to play the demo disks except my consoel seems to think that I own the game when I play the demo and looks bad as I have know achievements for it.

Games magazines? Do they seriously still make a profit these days? Unlike other publications games magazines usually have tech-savvy people as their audience, who are far more likely to get this sort of information on the internet.

For me, Metacritic is the best place for games reviews, given that it takes into account several points of view. I used to use Gamespot a lot but I think they're a bit too compromising with their advertisers.

found several gaming magazines online the best that the written ones for which you have to pay.

favorites : gamespy , pcign, gamespot

I got a subscritption to gameinformer. I like it although I haven't read any of the other game magazines to compare it's quality.

When I was 14-16, I read PlayStation Power and PlayStation Max. But the quality of this magazines got worse every issue, and I stop buying it.

Now I read Club Nintendo, and sometimes EGM and Nintendo Power (if I find it). I also read other magazines that come from Spain, unfortunately they come with free PAL DVDs with demos.

Atomix is filled with advertising, and they copy a lot of reviews from the web. Those guys are lame.

i read jostick (french magazine), pcgameplay (belgian magazine)

now it is too expensive

Just Playstation magazine, if it features a game I'm interested in. Most of the time I just look at various online sites.

I haven't bothered with gaming magazines for a long time. When I was young, I was into Next Generation and PC Gamer, but now I don't bother.

For editorial content, I do read http://www.escapistmagazine.com/ sometimes. I find them less interesting than I used to though, and usually Yahtzee's reviews are the main thing I'm interested in these days.
