Stupid Thread #4654 - Play Magazine Dead?

[haohmaru]

I'm sure this has been covered at some point, but is Halverson's Play Magazine toast? I never saw an issue.

Print media. Hard to believe it's dying this fast.

Thanks,

I just bought the August issue 2 days ago. Toe Jam and Earl III on the cover.

Check the site - looks eerily like Gamers Republic in its final days.

Hm...it's going to be awhile before print totally goes belly-up, though I know that's not saying much given the fact that Ziff Davis is apparently bankrupt. Frankly, there are only but so many quality print mags left. Besides EGM, OPM and OXBM, I can't really drive myself to even look at anything else (that is, when I do actually skim through any print coverage...the net is way ahead of what's featured within mags anyways).

Hey Haoh, how's Morrowind coming along btw?

I just looked at the website, heh. Well it seems that last months issue is coming soon, must come out after the issue that came after it thats already out now.

I've seen it at Gamestop, dunno about its business state though.

is PLAY a 40 page magazine? thats what it says on the pic on the site. . .x_X

Nope, It still going. I getting a issue every month. Say what you want but I like it, one of the only few magazines out there worth reading

[EThugg]

Play is NOT worth reading. I hope it dies soon. DIES!!!!!
