The GameFan history thread

This Fritz guy haxxored my account and changed my display options!

(false alarm, CONTINUE WITH THE LOVE, EVERYONE -_-)

Good god people! 20+ pages is a lot to read in one day.

I pointed this thread out to Chris Hoffman a few days ago, he's read a fair chunk of it. He's either completely real or Halverson's MPD has gotten way out of hand.

Total Bastard Gamer: Might be a little rough - Not sure if the Wal-Marts would ever carry a title such as this. This was also the original name of the fanzine I worked on.

Needs a bit of tweaking. I like the sound of Vicious Bastard Gamer much better. :)

I'm digging Restart.

I'm *really* digging VIDEOGAME MAGAZINE.

Thanks for the lost animefan, shidoshi. Hidden GF stuff like that is pure gold to people like me.

Not too bad at all. Considering the circumstances surrounding all of this, I couldn't think of a more fitting name. Best suggestion yet.

Compass, there actually was a similarly-named mag published by Larry Flynt called Video Games Magazine, so that one could work.

I agree with both those statements.

This thread is like a California wild fire...

If my suggestion actually gets used as the name for some sort of spiritual successor to Gamefan i will drown in my own hot nerdgasm

Restart is cool as long as there is no power/reset button in the logo or on the magazine anywhere. Buttons in logos = http://the-nextlevel.com/board/image...ustom/yuck.gif

Videogame Magazine - VGM? Is that already taken or am I thinking of EGM? And the font should be as bland as the title - arial bold or something boring. I mean bland in the good way, of course.

Oh, and this thread rules. Way more than other threads. And yes, I have nothing meaningful whatsoever to contribute.

Well in the January 2005 issue of Play they changed the review section around, and now have little bios including photographs.
