Poll: Magazines

[MurderousToaster]

So, I was just wondering, in the age of the internet and other such widely available information technologies, do any of you guys read magazines?

Personally, I haven't had a subscription to a magazine since the PS2, but I occasionally pick up a copy of Xbox World 360, Total PC Gamer or PC Format.

I used to subscribe to a video game magazine years ago, but I can't remember what it was for the life of me.

I think you're right, the internet has sort of muscled out magazines in recent years. It's faster, cheaper and a lot more convenient for a lot of people. Online magazines like Cracked and the escapist are really all I read now. What else do you need, right?

I love Empire the movie mag and national geographic. I normally get games and regular news online. Though I sometimes buy a games mag. I doubt I'll ever stop buying magazines. There is just something nice and easy about reading them.

I subscribe to "Fortune" and "Guns & Ammo".

I get Total Guitar delivered to my house every month. And I may take up a computer or gaming magazine subscription soon.

 

[Marter]

I don't read any magazines monthly. I'll read them if I'm waiting at the doctor's or something though.

 

[neoontime]

Nope, though the dentist office has some interesting ones to look at.

 

[Furious Styles]

Yeah, sometimes. I used to have a subscription to Playstation Magazine but canceled it, now I only buy magazines when they contain detailed previews of games I really want to buy

 

[Berethond]

Not currently.
I used to get Game Informer, but that ran out years ago. I'm now thinking of getting Car & Driver.

 

[Sassafrass]

I get OXM every month. Sadly, their demo discs have off late been...well, crap. An MW2 demo a good few months after its release? Come on, give us demoes of newer games! Or more XBLA stuff, I don't have a connection that can handle downloads well.

However, the features they've run lately (Batman: Arkham City and Bioshock: Infinite) have been very informative and kept me away from the demoes. And the reviews are quite good as well.

I read PC Informer (I think that's what it's called), The New Yorker, and National Geographic.

Edit: 301st post, woo!

 

[DarthFennec]

I read the Escapist Magazine ^_^
No I haven't read any magazines since I let my my Nintendo Power subscription run out. I remember one of the last issues I got was a first look thing about the DS, so that must have been a while ago.

 

[CarpathianMuffin]

Occasionally, I read National Geographic, depending on if it's around or not. Otherwise, no magazines for me.

 

[LooK iTz Jinjo]

No. I have never had a subscription to a magazine in my life and rarely ever even bought them. Can't remember the last one I read.

 

[OpiateChicken]

I'm getting a subscription to the Economist next month, and I'm getting my girlfriend a subscription to Cosmo as part of her birthday present.

 

[Super Toast]

I read Empire and Game Informer every month.

 

[Sacman]

Only PC Gamer because they are one of the few magazines that cover games like Deus Ex and S.T.A.L.K.E.R... you know PC games... that PC Gamers care about...

 

[newfiegirl 110]

Chatelaine. Good Housekeeping. Maxim. Entertainment Weekly. Have had subscriptions to all of these at one time or another.

 

[Evilsanta]

Well, Only PC gamer and sometimes Gamereactor. Though i subscribe on PCgamer so i guess i read them quite often.
