In the days of the internet, is there still a market for gaming magazines? Have you ever bought them? Do you still?
Personally, I use to buy them. They were the only way I could see if a game was good or not, or see what games are coming out, and when. Since getting a decent speed internet, the need to buy them lessened drastically; there are multiple gaming websites with their own reviews, and a limitless supply of opinions in general. But I still bought them, despite this.
Not any more though. The main reason I bought them was for the reviews. When I checked out OXM's website, I realised they posted all their reviews on there(not the best idea, in my opinion). I then stopped buying them; I can just read the reviews on there and save myself £6 a month.
Oh, and demos can now be downloaded.
I am curious how many people buy them.
