Around me, the bookstores sell the imported magazine for $10, so if you don't need a physical copy, it is a probably a better deal. Some people complain about crashing problems, but I have never experienced any.Donovanadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02626278101439920408noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135815543912646655.post-56474686635097916682011-02-01T23:48:51.747-05:002011-02-01T23:48:51.747-05:00Good God!

I guess I was looking for one of those mugshots/caricatures that most of the staff have. They pop up every so often for the editorial and review sections, but for some reason I was looking for yours in that article.<br /><br />Anyway, I'll have to grab at the look at the article when I go to Borders. It's well scanned, but a scan of a magazine makes me want to have the magazine in my hands to read.gogogoldbergnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135815543912646655.post-60204810008291220872011-02-01T15:22:48.231-05:002011-02-01T15:22:48.231-05:00@derboo

That's why I rely on contributor issues.<br /><br />@goldberg<br />Retro Gamer is actually the best magazine I've seen for posting writer credits. They do it for all articles if the writer places his name in the standfirst. They also get a little mugshot in the opening page.<br /><br />Mags like EDGE and GamesTM refuse to credit writers.<br /><br />My name is right there in the standfirst for Portopia, near the spine. :)Sketczhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02333200178515493705noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1135815543912646655.post-27608105085543441952011-02-01T14:59:28.188-05:002011-02-01T14:59:28.188-05:00Oh, that reads strange.
