Yup. On page 52, "Must-hit fansites":

"eyesonff.com - Game reviews, wallpapers, maps, and... the invisible lady? People who consider themselves Final Fantasy fans should check it out."

Awesome. When will this hit stores, so I can pick up a copy?

Chzn8r
08-14-2004, 01:31 AM
It's the October issue, so I'm assuming end of August it would be on shelves.

Dating, release times, etc... with magazines is so damn confusing. They should release an August issue the first day of August, with all relevant info at the time, then 1 month later release a September issue, etc... but no, they have months on them which means "Display until" so you can get an October issue in August, especially early if it's mailed to you, and it'd be the same as the one sitting on store shelves for the next month or more.
Blah.

They should've advertised the forum moreso than the main site. The site is great and all but you can find a lot of that elsewhere. But there's no other forum like EoFF :D

Del Murder
08-14-2004, 01:43 AM
I agree! It's still pretty cool though. Anyone have a scan of the ad?

Someone should write to EGM and complain that eoff has been overrun by newbies, and that EGM should mention the Ashleytrip thing, and why don't they just do a whole article on eoff? onetwothreefourfive.

Hey, were up there with HBO(EDIT: thats halo.bungie.org by the way). Being a halo player (PC, I dont want to enter the realms of the Xbox) I can say that its a pretty big reputable site Id even strech to say THE best halo site there is. Thats the best of the best there.

Shoeberto
08-17-2004, 09:23 PM
I really don't know what everyone else was expecting, but that's all they do. The Online This Month section is always a small article about something new online and then a really small portion with fansite links.

08-18-2004, 05:23 AM
If anyone else hasn't done so, I'd like to introduce myself as one of the " n00bs " as you guys put it, here from seeing the spot in EGM.

First off, I'd like to say congrats on the recognition in EGM. It may not be much, but it's something.

Secondly, I would just like to let everyone know that I know how to handle myself at a forum. I frequent two others and am even a moderator at one. So no worries on me running around spamming the place up.

I guess that's all I got. But again, congrats guys.

HOLY CRAP! Someone from RPGFan! I loved reading the mailbag section and the reviews on the site. Best RPG site there is! Although lately my hopes of a new mailbag every week is always dashed. Every update it seems that gets made 'This time we WILL do it' :crying2: Great site still.


My mother appparently got me a subscription of EGM in late May... I haven't gotten a single issue yet. Go figure. I hope I get this one.

You gotta call them up and bitch them out. Get them to give you free issues or something. I personally e-mail bombed the living hell out of them a few years ago because they forgot an issue. I wanted an immediate response and did all my e-mails legit and didn't use a program. I think the 1000 plus I sent them got the message across that I wanted my issue. I never did get the issue but my subscription got extentended 3 issues.

Okay, here's a little lesson for you, just so you know. The month of the issue is actually the month that it should be pulled from the store shelves. So that's why they're almost always a month or two ahead. Clear it up for you?

Nope, they're making a game based on the prospect that Tony SURVIVED after the end of Scarface. It's supposed to play like GTA, but with some differences of course.


That works, or he could go to my big OOC post on the first page and inform himself there ;)

Yeah, but that's over a page back. Like anyone reads that far in the past. ;)
