Game Informer is shutting down (WE BYKE!)

[Kamikaze Revy]

Not familiar with Game Informer but I have about 3 years of GamePro mags from 99-02 I think

 

[Ed MOTHERFUCKING G]

I have a gang of old EGM, Game Informer, Next Gen, Gamer's Republic, etc. in storage.

I have the Next Gen with the first "Tomb Raider" cover. I have the first ever review of "FF7", "Symphony Of The Night", "Mario 64", etc.

Fred.

I loved how there was the official PlayStation mag...


And the 100% UNOFFICIAL PlayStation mag

UOPM was my shyt . I literally still have a UOPM sticker on my launch day PSX from this issue

Game Informer came back to do what? Copy and paste some reddit threads, print them, mail them to you, and charge you 50 dollars for it

Still remember these clowns talking about "Neo's powers growing as the game progresses" in the Enter The Matrix game and he is not in the game at all outside of some FMV sequences from the movies

I like them as a time capsule.

Still remember them having 3/4 page featured article on that cancelled command and conquer game that never released. Fun times.

Let's get back to real journalism
Facts, game previews, leaks, reviews
Sick of these twitter idiots and podcasts pretending to be industry insiders cause Phil flews them out

Video game print journalism in the late 80's through the 90's was the wild wild west.

This is what I used to have lol

My dad got me a subscription when it first launched. I think it was like $10-$12 for the year

It didn’t come with demo discs but it did come with a lot of stickers for memory cards and PlayStation cd lid and I was happy

I always thought their reviews were spot on

 

[CarltonJunior]

Now that you mention it…I doubt it, but I wonder if they’re gonna bother to try and do right by the people that were subscribed and didn’t get their years worth of magazines.
I remember my son only got like 3 magazines out of his membership when the company went under. Maybe they should at least give a free digital sub for a year for those that were active when they shut down.

All reports have been that theyll still be doing print magazines

I used to take the discs from OPM and then buy UOPM

I'm why they started putting them in plastic
