Eh. It's probably for the best. EGM has been sorely lacking in the quality that they've been known for.

I did notice it was a lie. I've been reading some EGM magazines and they keep putting up this april issue with games like Lego Halo and crap.

Didn't you say you were hoping for Mushroom Kingdom Hearts?

I just resubscribed to the new EGM, got my first issue today, and it's really nice. The quality of the paper is very nice - very glossy and rather thick. Also they've went back to the numeral rating system which is good. Overall the new EGM seems ace.

Sweet. I'll have to check it out for old time's sake.

Sweet, I might check it out also.

I'll have to renew my subscription. Glad to see that EGM is back. Are they still associated with Ziff Davis?

Nope.

The original founder of the magazine is the guy behind it.

Yeah they seem to be completely independent now. Lots of new editors, too. But quite a few old ones return to contribute, Shoe included.

Dan "Shoe" Hsu is back? I enjoy reading his reviews.

He contributes, he's not one of the main editors, though. He has his own thing going on these days.

He runs Bitmob.

The only thing I missed when EGM and 1UP went over to the next group was the 1UP show. An awesome show showcasing new games, and showcasing them in incredible depth.
