What more can you say? I got a fantastic Amazon price for this informative gaming mag - only wish I could lock in the same price for future renewals.

Game Informer

Childrens Toy Shop > Magazines > Games and Strategy Guides
from: Sunrise Publications Inc


Having been a gamer for many, many, years, I can say that Game Informer is the best magazine out there now, and probably the most comprehensive and well made gamer mag ever.

Simply put, this magazine does a lot of things well...

1) The reviews are honest and thorough. I would say that I agree with them about 90% of the time. Many games will have two reviews so you can get different opinion.
2) Great layout. There are reviews, previews, editorials, reader letters, game news, event coverage, etc.. Overall, there is a lot in every issue.
3) Good construction. Nice size and great color on the pages. I remember old school GamePro where it was like a cheap comic. This is not the case.

Electronic Gaming Monthly

Childrens Toy Shop > Magazines > Games and Strategy Guides
from: Ziff Davis Media


I've been reading Electronic Gaming Monthly for several years, and it is truly one of the best gaming mags out there. 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.

If you want a high quality magazine about video gaming and all of its attachments, buy this one.

Maximum PC is an interesting well written magazine. It is also loaded with information about new technology and hardware not yet on the market. I love this magazine.

Gamepro - Us

from: Idg Games Media


I like Gamepro. I actually miss how they used the silly faces for the ratings. I guess it was "immature", but "F" that! Seriously!

And now, it's half way filled with advertisements, advertisements and more advertisements. Not very appealing when you want information on your favorite games, and you have to skip through an advertisement every two pages, sometimes every other page!

I know they pay for GamePro to even "Be", but I still don't like the amount.

I like how they do the yearly "Presents to Get for X-Mas", and I've liked the Questions section, as well as the section that fills you in on glitches and such, as well as the section that gives you tips on how to fix things, game-related.

Also, the info. on what video ... Read More:

Game Developer

Childrens Toy Shop > Magazines > Games and Strategy Guides
from: Cmp Media Llc


The info on this product says: Availability: The first issue should arrive in 6-10 weeks.

When I hadn't received the magazine in over 8 weeks I spent 15 minutes on the phone snaking my way to a person who could help only to be told their system had crashed moments before I called and they could NOT help me. I'd have to call back later.

What they did tell me was it takes 3 MONTHS to process subscriptions when ordered through Amazon. This was a Christmas gift and I'm not happy right now.

If you want this magazine (and my game developer son says it's good) go order it from Game Developer directly.

Games Tm

Childrens Toy Shop > Magazines > Games and Strategy Guides
from: Imagine Publ Ltd


I know the price is high for this magazine, due to it being an import to the U.S., but I have three gaming magazine subscriptions, and this is the one I most look forward to and probably will be the only one I renew. There's a lot of meat to each article, especially the 'behind the scenes of the gaming industry' type of articles. The previews are very often critical of some elements rather than effusive in their praise as is the case of some other magazines. The reviews are excellent and well balanced, and I love the Retro section at the end. While many people could find the retro section useless, to me it's fun to be reminded of some memories I had with older games.

There's very little 'filler' here, and while there are many magazines which focus more narrowly on a given ... Read More:
