Is this magazine good?

I just read my back issues of EGM

Costs too fucking much and reads like fans ranting on Internet forums most of the time, but, it has its moments.

This is the only option. I've been reading the same set of magazines on the toilet for the last 20 years.

Yes it is.

I have a link somewhere where every issue is scanned and dumped. I'll share if people want it.

>>2800983
Yes please! Thanks anon!

>>2800983
Do it.

I dunno, did you try wiping your butt with it?

It's the only way to be truly sure

Sorry for the delay folks, it looks a while to find the link.

Thanks mang.

Anyone know where I can find scans of the Australian official Nintendo magazine? Here the UK official Sega Saturn mag http://www.outofprintarchive.com/catalogue/officialsegasaturnmagazine.html

As a somebody that has gotten it since issue 1 I can honestly say

It used to be good, it used to be something id look forward to and read it cover to cover (including all the adds for the porn games)
In the past few years it has been repeating the same features (for a UK magazine there's a lot of Nintendo, ANOTHER MARIO FEATURE!)
Save for a few features in recent issues (Splatterhouse, PS1) it has been missing something.

It can be gotten cheaper on Google play, about £2something

If you can find scans of the Official Australian Playstation magazine, i would give you the swiftest of handies.

Not very impressed with retro gamer. Since my mags got recycled I prefer to read scans of old mags like CVG, Super Play and imo the best overall was the British EDGE magazine up until around 2003, when it went downhill after some of the best staff left. There are scans of some issues online at oldgamemags, a lot was on demonoid but now is not seeded. There are a number of special editions too that focus on retro gaming, essential hardware guides and 'equip' series that focus on the best games on each of the consoles.

If someone out there knows what I'm talking about then please please scan these and share. That would be awesome, as would scans of official playstation magazine uk, playstation power and the short-lived but high quality Total Control.

If only there were a more active strategy guide scanning community. :(

My magazine of choice back in the day didn't even last that long- it was called GAMENow...I wish I could re-read those lovable bastards...

I wonder whatever happened to them all?

There's something deeply sad about that.

OSS UK was amazing. Genuinely insightful, passionate and funny.

Super Play was another really good one and I'm not even that into the SNES. God-tier Wil Overton artwork.

Anyone got a bunch of old EGM scans?

In after all the C&VG mags, only downloads I can find go up to when it starts to get good (mid 90s)
