I've found their coverage to be quite good actually, only in the last couple of years with the departure of some long time editors has the magazine really hit a bit of a slump if you ask me. And it's not like other gameing magazines don't get it wrong from time to time. I refuse to buy EGM because of their shoddy reporting. I've seen at least one instance of them reporting rumours as fact, and I don't even buy the magazine that often (usually only for reading material on long trips since I've already bought the other magazines that are a little more worthwhile. Haven't actually grabbed an issue in at least two years).Originally Posted by Kawaii Ryűkishi
Regardless I've got the September issue, and all they say is there's a "mystery character who looks suspiciously like Laguna". They're not saying he'll make an appearance, and in fact calling him a mystery character shows they know nothing about him. At most I'd say said character could be an homage to FF8, and not a direct link, since the games take place in different worlds. Laguna wouldn't exactly be the first character to appear in more than one FF, even if this character only looks the same.
