    Do you guys subscribe to any gaming magazines?

    I used to get OXM, PlayStation Magazine, and Nintendo Power, but I let my subscriptions run out simply because you can find all that stuff online and more. It's nice to have something to take with you to read in the car or whatnot though, and if I found another cheap subscription I'd pick at least OXM and NP back up in a heartbeat.

    I buy 360magazine which is cheaper than OXM here and is fairly unbias (it even talks about PS3 and Wii in positive light which I think is cool) and has a pretty funny team of writers. I don't subscribe though because I only really buy it to read on the train from the station's news stand when I'm a little early for the train.

    I used to subscribe to Nintendo Power very briefly. I think it was for two years. They had a really great promotion going at the time. Terrific price. Then they raised it significantly and I bailed. I would take issues out from the library though as a kid. Same with EGM.

    The only reason I subscribed to those mags was because Amazon had a promotion where you got a subscription for like...$5 a year. Since they didn't offer the deal this year, I didn't renew.

    $5? That's a hell of a deal, must sting the publisher something rotten, the mags are the equivalent of $10 a piece here. Don't even talk to me about Amazon right now though, they signed me up for Prime without my knowledge and just stun me for a £50 charge. Crazy.

    I subscribed to Nintendo Power for like six years, lol. Same for Game Informer, although I got another subscription for that last year with my PowerUp Rewards Pro card.
