Default Re: Videogame magazines, do you still read any?

I only read the Game Informers which is a good marketing strategy because when you get the customers to sign up for PowerUp Rewards, not only do the magazines pay for themselves but they get a big profit from all the used sales and whatnot for rewards.

I know they're on the decline though. I think GamePro is changing to do quarterly magazines only now, which I think is a little ridiculous and doesn't work well for a magazine about gaming where lots of news comes out constantly throughout the week. I mean looks at Joystiq, EpicBattleAxe, 1UP, N4G. These are sites constantly getting flooded with new information about video games.

I usually stick to Joystiq cause they don't update extremely frequently and I enjoy their humor. Probably another reason why I like reading Engadget as well.

GamePro also needs to bring back LamePro.
