Dabz	Bought a PC Floormat mag for the travel down today, since I'm heading back home for good, might as well look into the desktop shenanigans... And I was blown away with it... Because it's nothing more then a bloody £5.99 pamphlet! :/ #robbery -=-=- Intel Core i5 6400 2.7GHz, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 (8GB), 8Gig DDR4 RAM, 256GB SSD, 1TB HDD, Windows 10 64bit

Jayenkai	I remember the days when £3.50 used to buy an encyclopeadia sized magazine, with thousands of pounds worth of software on the cover! Bloody internet... -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

steve_ancell	I remember Amstrad mags being under a quid, and they had more content than the crap they're selling now.

spinal	stopped buying retro gamer when future took over. It lost that 80's feel and I didn't like that. -=-=- Check out my excellent homepage!

rockford	I subscribe to RetroGamer, Edge and GamesTM. I enjoy them most months. Edge is constantly up its own arse, but often has some very good features. GamesTM is pretty much perfect as a gaming and tech mag for me. RetroGamer is very hit and miss, but I enjoy it on the whole.

Jayenkai	I used to pick up Edge and RetroGamer every month, since the shop I worked in also sold magazines. Handy, that! Unfortunately, I haven't picked either of them up since the last time I was at work, and that's over 3 years ago. .. I haven't missed either of them.. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

steve_ancell	What pisses me off is how they charge 6 quid for a pamphlet that's stuffed full of crap that's available freely over the internet anyway.

Jayenkai	And is at least a month old, too. That doesn't help. -=-=- ''Load, Next List!''

Steve Elliott	I tend not to buy them unless it's an impulse purchase...Case-in-point, picked up a copy of Retro Gamer because they have a feature on Shoot'em ups. -=-=- Intel Core i5-4590 @ 3.2GHZ 8Gb RAM, NVidia GeForce GTX 750 Ti 2Gb, Windows 8.1 64-bit.
