Does Playboy count??? J/k

I had a Nintendo Power subscription years ago but I let it run out during the N64 era cause I was more into PS and Saturn at the time. Also had a Game Informer sub but that magazine didnt impress me much. Now I dont really read any magazine mostly all my reading I do is online.

What's this bit for again?

I read [N]gamer, a Dutch Nintendo magazine. We don't really have a Dutch version of Nintendo Official Magazine/Nintendo Power. The only Nintendo-centric one we have is this independent magazine, which is actually a lot better than having a Nintendo-sponsored magazine so you don't have all the bias.

Other than that I read the TV guide.

Nah, Game Informer. I don't even remember subscribing though.

Is it after 9PM EST? You should probably ignore the above post.

I do GameInformer, Sports Illustrated, Nintendo Power, and, for my dear mother, WomensDay.

Same here. I think when you buy a new console at Gamestop if you're a rewards club member or something they give you a year free. Or something like that. Mine expired and was magically renewed a few months later when my brother bought a PS3.

Exactly.

There can only be one, like in that foreign movie where there could only be one, and in the end there is only one dude left, because that was the point.

I've never bought any console at a GameStop. I think its if you sign up for an Edge card.

I'm actually a big magazine reader. Shame so many are struggling thanks to the internet.

The ones I read are:
Mother Jones (an extremely well written magazine but obviously not likely to attract many conservative readers)
Time
Newsweek
EGM
Sports Illustrated
Playboy (would you believe for the articles?)
National Geographic

Taking a magazine to the crapper is easier than a computer.

Shonen Jump, and I get my parents back issues of Smithsonian Magazine and National Geographic when they're done with them.

I got NP mag from start to end (end being when they whored it to Future One which I then canceled after seeing how stupid it was as it seemed to me people there wanted to be doing non-Nintendo stuff in part and acting jerky about it in the writing.) I also got MAD for quite a few years, but they got so aggravatingly politically one sided I got fed up with it too (used to rip on both sides and that was funny.)

You can either subscribe to Game Informer (using one of the inserted cards, etc) or you are also automatically signed up for it once you purchase an Edge card at Game Stop. They use this recyled-type paper now and it gives the magazine a very unique feel/look.
