 3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I've subscribed and what not to Gaminformer,EGM,Tips N Tricks, Gamepro, Xbox Magazine, and PSM for years. I also go to each videogame site daily. I've defintly found that Gameinformer is hte best, most detailed, and most comprehensive. It has every game, every console, and everything noteworthy. It is the best video game magazine period! Big screenshots! Honest reviews! Just the best!


4 out of 5 stars Great Magazine   May 8, 2007

5 out of 5 stars Great Info and Reviews   January 18, 2007
 2 out of 4 found this review helpful

When i started to think seriously on purcahsing a new next gen console, i needed some real unbiassed info, then i got this magazine on a local store and really enjoyed it! i bought 2 extra issues and all i got was great reviews, updated news, great pics, nice great adds and best of all it covers all consoles on the market now. It takes a while to receive the first issue (still waiting for it) buy i know i wont regret it...
Iniside you will find editorials, previews with plenty of pics, a feature review and many smaller reviews.... so dont think about it too long just go ahead and add it to your shopping cart!! for this price its worth it! i paid 5-7usd/issue on my local store (outside US)

After reading the info i decided to go with a PS3 and cant regret i did! its sweet! so after that being said, I wish it include : -

A BD with demos and/or video previews
B Some large Game Posters....

Overall its a great pick!!!!

I just wrote a review for OPM, and had forgotten about this magazine. I also used to subscribe, and had recently let my subscription run out. I will not say it is not because I do not like this magazine, but because I am trying to save some money. But the fact is, that this is probably the best multiplatform gaming magazine on the market.

The reviews are smart and fresh, never hackneyed, or cliched, the way a lot of other magazines are (and some of my reviews, sorry guys!). But the introductory article in each and every magazine, by the Chief editor, always sounds like it has been written by a Harvard Grad, with a Layman's ability to make everything easy to understand. He has a way of making every article within the magazine all come together. Never biased, they are not afraid of telling it like it is in their reviews.

I would highly recommend subscribing to this magazine, and like somebody else mentioned, better to go directly to the store, and get the discount card. After $150 - $200 in used game purchases, it pays for itself.

Highly recommend!

EDIT: Believe it or not, when I got home, yesterday, just after writing this review, I had a copy of the September issue in my mailbox. I had forgotten, I had called Customer Service about a missed issue. They were nice enough to extend me a two issue subscription free of charge, to cover my missed issue. I was quite impressed, and tickled pink, when I got my newest copy in the mail, when I arrived at my posh homestead.

Thank you Game Informer for continued excellent service and a wonderful magazine.



5 out of 5 stars The gaming mag that pays for itself.   August 14, 2006
 5 out of 5 found this review helpful

I have been subscribing to this mag for a couple years, and think it's one of the best gaming mags available. I have several different consoles, and appreciate that they review games for all platforms. I like the rating system (1-10) instead of the too-hard-to-pin-down 1-5, and find the reviews well written and objective. While I have been gaming for years, I am not necessarily versed in computer lingo, but I never feel like an idiot after reading this mag; the writing is erudite but very easy to understand. I read several different gaming magazines each month, and feel this magazine strikes exactly the right balance between the more serious and more frivolous gaming magazines in the industry.

One suggestion: if you have a GameStop or affiliated store in your neighborhood, get your subscription through them. For about $15 you receive a 12-year subscription, and a card that gives you 10% off used games at these stores, as well as an extra 10% trade-in value on your used games (sometimes there will be a coupon in that month's mag to upgrade to 20% for both!).
