Okay, perhaps games themselves don't have their own magazines. But my point was that it was not the first time a company has released a magazine about their products. Even in the MMORPG world, SOE did it. And outside of the MMORPG world we have seen other companies doing the same. *Looks at Nintendo, Sony, Sega, and Microsoft*

I still don't see how it is a "new low" or anything negative. *shrug*

Enjoy your subscription to mmochampion.com + some fat chicks in Naga costumes monthy.

Your whole fanboy argument is stupid and laughable. I love how you and bovinity throw your hands in front of your faces in defense and cry that somebody calls you a fanboy because they disagree.

There, I can pull stupid shit accusations out of my ass too.

The whole thing you quoted me saying has shit all to do with that.

If you need somebody to b-b-b-break it down for you about the whole magazine and why its just another tool in their current crusade to expand into other formats then fine.

This will be nothing more than a shitty fluff mag designed to pull in easy advertisement revenue in an already failing medium *gaming mags* that will offer nothing but light toilet reading.

I guess if you stare at that explanation hard enough, you can see fanboy in it. I mean all the letters are present.

Edit:

Quarterly? $40a year? Hahahaha. Future publishing letting something out without advertisement will last all of 2 issues.

Oh, come on, you aren't a stupid guy. =P

Nowhere in any of my posts am I wondering about the worth of the magazine, in fact, I didn't touch the topic anywhere. The only thing I found silly was the response from Larreth. Stating that releasing a piece of merchandising of a popular franchise is a "new low", is just pretty darn silly thing to say. But gee, how many more times do I need to write this out before it is understood!

Thanks for breaking down your thoughts on the of the magazine though, I would have agreed with you even if you hadn't. That is, if I had actually been discussing that topic, but I wasn't.

Also, it doesn't bug me if you or Larreth hinted at fanboyism, I just find it silly if you did so based on what I wrote. And unless I'm misreading your response, saying, "Hope you enjoy your X product and the X content that will come with it." does read a bit funny. But you didn't need me to tell you that. Anyway, hey, if you insist you didn't mean anything by it, fine! I'll believe you!

Better? Feeling more calm? Body pressure back to normal?

Enjoy your, but I mean "your" not in a sense of you, and by you I mean Gosthok, subscription to mmochampion.com + some fat chicks in Naga costumes monthly, but its actually a quarterly thing so four times a year.

No shit with regards to Future. I think the only thing left I can read on the can anymore without my mouth starting to shit as well is MaximumPC. God print is so dead. Sucks that PC Gamer died with the Vede.

PS - oh, and with the death PCXL. Shit magazine that I loved regardless for some reason. Maybe it was the skanktastic Killcreek issue.

Sucks that PC Gamer died with the Vede.

Over/under on how many issues until they put pet keycodes in the magazine?

On raiding? No, I do not think they are longer. They feel longer to us based on much what I have already said. The Faggot Factor pretty much. Even Stockades can feel like hell on earth with a shitbad group. And now, since everybody is on this whole Gear Level check bullshit, expectations for heroics are off the charts bad. What the fuck is a fresh 80 supposed to do. I'm not talking about someone who just dinged 80, lets say someone who has hit 80 and put some effort into getting reasonable pre heroic gear while being a skilled player. He's going to be sitting out holding his dick even though he can perform.
