I LOVED the print version back in the day. It was a quality publication.
I read the digital edition in high school, the covers were a lot more fun in print!
big same. i don’t even know if i’d be here commenting on gaming forums if i hadn’t had Game Informer back in the day. Introduced me to the whole “scene” around gaming!
Bummer. Game Informer was the leading game magazine when Game Pro and Nintendo Power were around, though? I think not. Game Informer was third fiddle at best.
2006 is a bit late in the game. Game magazines as a relevant medium peaked in the 90s. By 2006 you have a pretty robust internet, what’s the point? Yeah, sure, if you stick them in every single B&N they’ll sell, but Game Pro and Nintendo Power were institutions in the 90s. If you wanted to know about games, that was the way.
Fair point! Looks like Nintendo Power had well over a million throughout the 90s and Game Pro sat around half a million. GI didn’t start until 1991 so it would’ve been significantly lower, but it started getting pushed harder by 2000.
We’ve probably done more research in this thread than the person writing the article lol
Good. It was just garbage to con you into their paid club. Every month, they would announce things in it that we learned on the Internet weeks before.
Good riddance to some bad rubbish.
People are losing their jobs
There are too many people on the planet, can’t care about them all.
Please be(e) nice when on our instance. You can not like the publication, but it isn’t nice to be callous towards people losing their jobs
You literally can.
