So, Imagine publishing haven't bought the magazine, issue 41 isn't on the 
shelves now, and I didnt't get my subscription copy last week? It's got 
Outrun Coast 2 coast for the Xbox on the cover as well, how's that for 
ironic given that you made this post?

What are you talking about? Do you not read the posts? There have been 
several threads about GamesTM and the Imagine publishing takeover during 
the last couple of weeks. There is also a post discussing the new issue 
under Imagine and if you had bothered to look on the web you would have 
seen the press release announcing the acquisition of several other 
Highbury titles as well.

LOL. Man, I don't even buy it (though used to) and even *I* know of the 
takeover/re-publishing of Games TM. I guess you feel fairly silly now, huh?

Word from the inside is that GamesTM is going to be rebranded soon, new look 
et al.  Imagine are going to push it as the main multiformat mag, alongside 
their main retro mag, RG.

It'll have to be bloody good to succeed long-term. 'Arcade' magazine (Future 
Publishing) of the late nineties was as good a multi-format mag as you could 
get - that went tits up......despite a snazzy look and glossy feel.

Anyway, I've decided I will start to buy GamesTM again, in whatever guise. I 
miss 'paper' mags terribly...and I also wish to support this waning 
industry - as it is so apparent now that it is *really* struggling. I 
personally know people in this business, and times are indeed hard for them.

you can see why though, when you can get all the information they
produce weeks in advance on the internet.

its a tough area to be a journalist in, and this is evidenced by the
way a lot of games mag staff move on to work on games websites.

I think a lot of it is to do with the prices. £4 is expensive IMO for 
information that can be had for free. But if a magazine was well 
written, entertaining (which some mags are) AND cheap enough (£2.50) 
then I'd buy more.

To contradict myself, when I do buy a mag (rarely do) I feel as though 
there is a lot of content so I suppose they are reasonable value for 
money. But that £4-5 price on the cover puts me off everytime I look at 
a mag, so no doubt it puts a lot of others off as well.

I think GamesTM has the best of the subscription offers at the moment with 
each issue costing £2 delivered.  I do subs every three months so I will oly 
lose £6 at the most if they pull the plug on it.

If it was full price though I doubt that I would buy it.

Simon

Try taking a games website to the shit-house though.....unless you have a 
wi-fi laptop, it's hard - and doesn't quite get the bowel moving like a good 
paper read.....or the first drag of a cigarette, or sip of coffee. ;)

That's why I miss paper mags. :)

Seriously though, I know what you mean - the internet was what enabled me to 
stop buying them. The price too - 10 mags, or less, is, like... a new game. 
But I *do* miss them terribly.....and so does my constitution (I have every 
issue of Arcade in my bathroom). ;)
