What is your favourite Magazine?

I've never subscribed but I have frequently bought Maximum PC magazines in the past.

What do you like about it?

A disc with neat freeware is usually included. It also has the newest tech in it. I drool and wish I had the talent/money to buy and build one of their dream rigs. I also enjoy a few of the game reviews.

How much do you spend on Magazines?
£2 or less £3-£5 £6-£10 £11+

Shit. I'm Canadian and I'm a bit tired at the moment. Ummm... 8 bucks a magazine? My best guess. I usually pick it up every two months so in a year... $48 Canadian. I think.

How often is it released?
Weekly Monthly Quatrely Other

Monthly.

How often do you purchase it?
Every release.Only when you see it. Only when it has a feature you enjoy. Other.(if picked please explain)

Other, whenever I have the money to buy it and/or I see it on my way to the cash register. At most I buy it bimonthly.

How did you find out about this Magazine?

My Dad has been reading it since a kid. They were left around the house a lot and eventually I got to like their tech reviews, game reviews and sense of humor. Also some really good PC health tips can be found in it.

What attracted you to it in the first place?

It was available and it had more to say on computers than my Dad did/does.

Would you recommend it? Why?

I would recommend it because it lets you examine newest graphic cards, CPU's, cooling systems, monitors and it also has some really good PC health tips. I don't recommend it for Mac users or for those who don't like dealing with the innards of a PC.

...Well, I'm probably useless data! Hoped I helped anyway.

The articles interest me, and sometimes they have reviews of games that I'm considering for purchase.

I used to buy every issue, but now I only buy it if a) the cover is awesome or b) there's something in that issue that I really want to read.

8. How did you find out about this Magazine?
I was in a store that specialises in magazines, looking for Australian magazines about PC games. It was one of two that fit the bill, and the other one had a stronger focus on computer hardware.

9. What attracted you to it in the first place?
It had Left4Dead on the cover, on the first issue that I purchased. I liked that. But yeah, it was mainly because it was an Australian magazine about PC games, as mentioned above.

10. Would you recommend it? Why?
Yes, if it's relevant to your interests - if you're an Aussie gamer who likes PC games, I can't see why you wouldn't enjoy it, but if you only play console games, then I probably wouldn't recommend it to you.
