Official Playstation Magazine: RIP
This is very interesting, Sony
kills off the Official Playstation Magazine. This may be a good business move, I don't know, but it strikes me as interesting because, according to the article, Xbox's official mag is doing quite well. And, as something a sad event for me, Computer Gaming World magazine has rebranded itself
Games for Windows, the official magazine of windows games. Personally, I'm hopeful the whole Games for Windows marketing gig revives PC gaming as does Vista, but I don't know. Still, I loved Computer Gaming World, even if it had recently lightened its load a bit and stop doing official reviews though their articles sure looked and acted like a review (one of the dumber editorial things I've seen). Still a great magazine is no more, or rather has become a house rag. I've read the first issue of Games for Windows and it still is a lot like CGW and the editor swears that MS does not oversee their content, which I actually believe is probably the case. Still, just a strange day in gaming publishing if you ask me.
