I never cared for game informer. It always felt like GameStop was trying to shill it in order to sell subscriptions to a magazine that’s basically a giant advertisement for GameStop.
Gimme those cooler magazines. Game Pro, Nintendo Power, PSM etc.
I understand what you’re saying about Game Informer, but it’s hilarious you name Nintendo Power and PSM as alternatives, considering that.
Yeah but all least they weren’t being forced on you
Most magazines are just ads.
Next Generation was always my bag.
You don’t want a magazine that’s adverts but you like Nintendo Power and PSM…
Those were the best ads tho. Game informer was just a GameStop ad. And GameStop always made me feel bad.
So you like ads, just not GameStop ads? I mean, GI had a lot of info about games, too. Beyond Nintendo and PS, you could actually learn about PC games.
Game Informer always felt like the cheap knockoff to Electronic Gaming Monthly.
