What is your problem? No, seriously. You go off on people for giving pretty civil constructive criticism to a magazine, and then feel justified to call another a fag? Do you realize how contradictory this is? How completely insane?

People should hold back their criticism, but you're completely justified to spout off juvenile insults that reflect a 13 yr old?

You're taking what-his-face's artwork far too seriously. Go outside. Get some fresh air. Breathe.

Well, no, it was actually the shittiest one imaginable, but I'm sure it's as good as an attempt that someone of your limited mental stature could muster.

But don't rest on your laurels, try harder next time and you just might even rise to the level of a retard.

I like this magazine well enough. It just strikes me as a bit, I dunno, sterile. For a magazine coming from those who've worked with GameFan and GameGo, this is somewhat disappointing, as those magazines had personality and humor. Personally, I think the previews need to be shortened, reviews made more plentiful, and more quirky/nerdy features like ROM hacking and 8-bit and 16-bit reviews.

I definitely think it's getting better, and out of principle alone I'd rather read this than EGM or damn near anything else on the market.

That says more about people's expectations than your sense of humor. The first part anyway, that part you just edited in about kevincal has nothing to do with your sense of humor and everything to do with him being a stubborn idiot fanboy.

I do think I need to make it clear though that I still find HCG to be amatuerish and badly designed. Still, to be fair, there is room for improvement. That of course assumes they WANT to improve and aren't just set in their ways.

Shut the fuck up. Between "LET'S SEE YOU DO BETTER" and "HE'S THE BESTEST THERE IS" you look like nothing more than a retarded fanboy who can't accept that maybe, possibly, the anatomy, positioning and sense of movement are completely fucked up in this picture, resulting in something that looks like it belongs on a lame deviantart page rather than on the cover of a magazine. He has done good covers in the past, but this is not one of them.

I fully expect a "lol no u" type reply.

Jesus Christ. 4 solid pages of bitching about the cover of a magazine? A magazine that you can download and don't even have to buy? The cover's not even that bad.

Seriously. I spent a whole half minute thinking about the best combination of characters for a Princess Peach adventure, and no one has anything to add?

I wasn't actually being serious, I was just trying to be funny... which obviously failed miserably.

D: I thought you were serious too.
