Its sad to hear about a gaming legacy finally ending, but like a few have said, I feel the quality of EGM has fallen in recent years. Course I would have rather see Game Informer go cause they are insanely jaded (P4 docked points cause its a PS2 game? WTF?!) and they almost never talk about anything interesting in their main articles anymore...

EGM had a pretty good run and I feel they have held better than other gaming magazines like Game Pro, Game Informer, and PSM. I still like my gaming magazines and despite what you feel Dreddz there are gaming magazines that support the underdogs more. Like Play the spiritual successor to Game Fan. I actually heard about the Yakuza series because of them. They are probably the best gaming mag on the market imho.

I also like Edge (though not as much), even if they walk the thin line between pessimism and hardcore jaded gamers. I just like that they don't talk about the gaming companies as though they could do no wrong. I fee they present a more accurate idea of what's going on in the gaming world cause they are willing to talk about the bad stuff and willing to speak up when they feel a company is doing something stupid. Its a sobering experience.
