Whats the best Computer gaming mag?

Im thinking of trading in my subscription of electric gaming monthly(consoles only) for a PC mag. Any suggestions?

Why subscribe to a mag when you have access to the internet?

Magazines smell like new.

Ew, icky.

PC Gamer UK is definately the one for me. I used to get PC Format but the last one I got was full of "Why this game is crap" reviews and I didn't enjoy reading it.

PC Gamer is the best in the US, although Computer Gaming World isn't bad.

PC Zone ain't worth the paper it's printed on.

Edge however, is royalty

i've been reading them for the past 6 years. quality mag.

PCGamer UK is good but it's just messy and they try too hard to be funny.

i buy a pc mag more for the entertainment than for the previews/reviews etc. and PCZone is a very entertaining read.

Edge is decent. a bit too toffee nosed for me sometimes though.

Edge is good, but covers all the bases, not just PC gaming ;(

Which is why I love it so!

I've always found the Edge reviews to be BS free, too.

 

[ComradeBadger]

Yeah, I do wub them, just thought the thread author was after PC gaming mags

It's 1:30, leave me alone ;(

[ComradeBadger]

Heh, ty

And Dedalus, Edge are elitists but that's not always bad

PC Gamer(US) if you are on the younger side, Computer Gaming World if you are over 20.

Computer Gaming World is just a low-quality version of PC Gamer...

 

[Cone-Zone]

Thanks for all the advice guys, im going down to barnes and noble tomarrow to look at which i like more. PC gamer seems cool, however i have expierence with CGW's sister mag EGM.

I live in California and yes, im over 20

I seriously disagree, PC Gamer(US) appeals to younger readers(usually) due to simple vocabulary, crude jokes, and a generally less refined articles/reviews.

 

[Deadline]

PC F-ing Gamer.... or PC Gamer for short. But seriously they give great reviews and they are accurate. If a game gets a 50% you can be sure as hell it is going to be boreing as well.

 

[Cone-Zone]

Thanks guys

i think computer gaming world is still my favorite print mag. it used to be much better, but they have gradually become thinner and thinner magazines(same thing with pc gamer). but yeah i still prefer cgw. to add to the quasi debate, i'm 22

I used to get PCFormat...But thats just me. I don't really get them anymore, and only bought one a while back because I was waiting for a train. It had some cool Bf2 videos on it though.
