I guess I'll just read back issues for the rest of my life. I will never read another game magazine because there can only be one. This was the best video game magazine ever and now it's gone. I read this magazine starting in my childhood up to now, early in my adulthood. It feels like I lost a dear friend today, RIP EGM.
I'm assuming Amazon.com will be removing this from the site soon but I just wanted to let everyone know. The new company will be focusing on the video game web sites they own instead of print media such as EGM. You can google this in case you do not believe what I'm saying. Yesterday, the company that owns Electronic Gaming Monthly was sold. For this reason you should NOT SUBSCRIBE to this magazine. EGM was a great magazine while it lasted. They immediately announced that this magazine was cancelled effective immediately and the current issue on the newsstands now, January 09, would be the last. Loved it.
My low rating is more targeted at the fact that I ordered it 12/2008 only to find out it is being discontinued in 1/2009. Seems odd that you are able to order a magazine subscription that you will never receive an issue of. I personally have no problem with this magazine, I've never even seen it actually. Boo.
Don't forget to listen to their weekly podcasts on their webpage. Quite simply the best video game magazine in production these days. They add so much additional content and no extra price.
The writing is phenomenal; the writer's manage to put humor and detailed information into their articles. Many other magazines have sold out in recent years, giving better reviews to game's whose publishers pay more for advertising and such, but not EGM. I've been reading Electronic Gaming Monthly for several years, and it is truly one of the best gaming mags out there. If you want a high quality magazine about video gaming and all of its attachments, buy this one.
