I figure they may be a thread on this already but the search function is not working for me. Everyone else have this same problem? Anywho..anyone else buy this publication? I just picked up the newest issue available in the US and it has a bad ass Metroid cover. The mag is kind of pricey but it is one of the few print magazines I buy.

I have the latest issue since I subscribe this month its all about spy hunter. Great mag a little pricey as you say but if you can swing the cash its worth it or at least read it at the news stands

My local Barnes and Noble sells them for $11.99 per issue. I'll buy one every once in a while, depending on content.

I find it between 9.50 and 12.50 euro, which is a rip off at both price points, with the new Euro-Pound rate

Currently one of the only magazines I always read (The Economist is the other). At $12 an issue on the US newstand, it's pricey, but the quality of the writing and coverage makes it worth it. I even scooped up a whole load of back issues on eBay a while back. There's also a pretty lively forum community at the mag's website.

There are a few issues on Underground Gamer. Issue 50 (the Dreamcast one) was upped by me (My username is Devilmyarse on UG). Don't forget to give thanks and seed it!
I get it whenever I can, but I've missed a few months now from being thrifty as we're saving up for a new house.
