Favorite gaming magazines?

What are your favorite gaming magazines?

 

[alphabetagamma]

Don't usually read gaming magazines, they don't usually say all that much. At least the ones I've seen didn't.

I got a free subscription to GameInformer a long time ago. It didn't seem to have anything more than free news sites like IGN, and the sites are a constant source, not weekly or monthly.

PC Gamer UK, I'm actually subscribed to them. I enjoy reading it.

 

[Jek Jek Roo]

I like CD-Action the most. The bigest game magazine in poland. http://www.cdaction.pl/

RetroGamer ftw. http://www.retrogamer.net/

I like PC Gamer the most probably, but the PC fanboyism that goes on in that mag is ridiculous.

 

[Lord Sinister]

I have to say I've not noticed a lot of PC fanboyism/elitism in the UK version of PC Gamer, aside from it being focused on PC gaming (what with it being PC Gamer and all

).

Nintendo Power.

 

[Jay Steinman]

Wow. I'm the only vote.

I used to read EGM, but then they folded for about a year and a half and I went to OXM.

I used to get Game Informer, and Nintendo Power.. but I don't really read game magazines anymore. I just get info off the internet..

 

[BTGBullseye]

The only gaming magazine I've read was PC Gamer. Wasn't saying anything important about anything.

PC Magazine (not PC Gamer) had more stuff important to a true gamer.

I don't bother reading stuff from these "gaming" magazines or sites anymore since 90% of the time I disagree with their ratings of games, and 100% of the time they tell me nothing about the game itself that I don't get from the front page of the game's website.

GameInformer and Playstation Magazine. Not really a magazine reader to begin with but when I do it's either of those.

I grew up reading "Hjemme PC" (means basically "Home PC") which is a Norwegian PC magazine. It used to have game sections and game reviews, but was overall focused on computers in general. The first real gaming mag I read was iNcite PC Games or something. The cool thing about that mag was that every issue included a free full version of a game. Was how I got exposed to Fallout 2 and MDK basically.

 

[Axeldeath]

I used to buy Krash magazine as a child because it came with demos for PC games, that's how I found Dungeon Siege, AOE etc.

 

[Alyxx Thorne]

Yeah, before most of us had the internet, Demo CD's was pretty much how I at least got to try new games.

 

[Arby]

Gameinformer subscriber for a very long time now. Still have my issue 100 special edition sitting around somewhere.

 

[Dr. Derpy Hooves Ph.D]

Gameinformer.

The only problem i've EVER had with them is rating Black Ops at above 8.

:c

I had Game Informer for a while, than they began giving good reviews to crap like Dragon Age 2 and Mass Effect and then I realized all hope was lost.
