Sign me up, TMFKACGW!!

The Magazine Formerly Known As Computer Gaming World, for those who don't know :)

I've been freely subscribed to this magazine for about five months now, and I really love this magazine. I was going to pay for a renewal, but now I'm glad I dont' have to :)

Even though I don't own a computer that can play any new computer games, I enjoy reading the articles that cover the game industry in general, and there are plenty of cross-platform games whose info applies to the Xbox360 as well.

I would liked to have payed for a subscription to GFWTOM AKA TMFKACGW, but I already pay that for PC Gamer. But now, I can subscribe to both!

That is massive win.

I remember having a subscription to EGM a long long time ago. Good stuff.

Though I only own an Xbox 360, I subscribe to EGM instead of Official Xbox Magazine, because I like EGM's critiques and articles about the gaming industry in general, along with their bits on the 360 and its games.

But I do love seeing PC Gamer in the mailbox every month. It's a wonderful indulgence as I shake with ecstasy when I remove the magazine from its plastic sleeve.

I also have a subscription to EGM. Two years for twenty dollars? Can't do much wrong there.

OXM is a piece of crap. I never liked the ignorance and writing style of the staff. I used to subscribe to them for their Demo Disc, but I don't even need that anymore with XBLM.

I totally agree. For some reason, I find the OXM staff to be... incompetent. And yes, ignorant. I can't trust them to publish accurate information. Their writing styles is teh fail, too.

Also, I totally disagree their rating system. No game is ever perfect, but they award some games perfect scores. "But 10/10 isn't a perfect score, 11/10 is, and we'll never award those." What a load of bullsheet. Ten out of ten is 100%, hence, 100% score, perfect. 100/100. If you want to break the laws of math, go ahead. I won't subscribe to your magazine.

On a sidenote, yes, I do know that EGM rates some games ten out of ten as well, but I actually don't mind it that much because at least they have a decent staff.

I like OXM, to be honest, but it's extremely flawed in some perspectives. I would have so much to argue with them if I ever had the chance to meet them.

Still, I like getting the demo disks sometimes. Frostcrag Spire and the Thieves' Den for free? I'd hit that.

Even though EGM awards 10/10's, their scale admits it isn't perfect. They say "... a 10 does not mean a game is perfect, but rather it's the best score we can give."

Turns out this offer was legitimate after all. I just received my first issue of TMFKACGW/TOM:GFW in the mail today!

*Consumes*

You only just got it today?

loser. omg

Started receiving issues this week as well.
