EGM.jpg

EGM is coming back, it's using the old logo (slightly modified), and the first issue should be available before the year closes out. It's a tiny cover tease, but it's still great to see the gaming publication coming back. We'll get a Super Mario Galaxy 2 preview out of it as well!

I think it's really cool that they are coming back. I used to have a subscription back in the day. I was always a fan of this magazine.

Hmmm...Well when EGM closed down, I had like 6 months left on my subscription. I wonder if they will still send me those 6 issues. :P

It's a mock up. GoW3 isn't even announced.

BIG RETURN COVER!!!!

And they happen too choose a cover with a generic bald space marine on a generic sci-fi battle ground. Way too plain. I like Mass Effect, but the game is not a good "cover art" material, due to the art design of the series just plain sucking.

EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY!!! How much more stereotypical can you get?!

Anyway, seems as if EGM really is returning to how it was. In other words, almost non-existant Nintendo coverage.

I'm happy to see the magazine return, but – and I hate to say it – I don't really feel like wasting money on another subscription, not when they're covering the same stories and consoles every other journalist publication in the industry is...

Guess I'll just read the better stories from a friend's issue...

Doubt the Galaxy 2 preview is going to give any new info.

Couldn't have pick a better cover? (no disrespect to Mass Effect)

Personally, I think Mass Effect 2 is going to be a AAA game in every way imaginable and a great game in its own right.


But like someone said prior, even I can admit it doesn't make the best cover art.

What the hell? They're back already?

It's as if they never left and replaced my remaining subscription to the derogatory Maxim magazine!

RMC, do your research. This is a mockup.

Did it say Gears of War 3? That's obviously fake.

Meh. I loved EGM back in the day, but there's barely anything in it that warrants a purchase.

Nice mockup there. Makes me think of subscribing to Nintendo Power, as my local store doesn't have it anymore. >_>

I wonder if the new staff will be more mature and over the age of 15?

I cancelled my sub two+ years ago because of that, and PSM the year before for the same reasons.

Game Informer and NP are the only gaming mags I get now. It's cheaper in the long run too. :)

So...the magazine failed and now they are doing the exact same thing and expecting it to be a success. I doubt this will last for more than a year.
