I use to be really into gaming magazines. Had subscriptions at various points in life to GamePro, EGM, Game Informer, PSM, and Nintendo Power.

I think all but Nintendo Power I stopped around 2005 area as NP did great gifts with subscriptions. Even then I stopped with them in 2009.

I did have an @Gamer subscription for 2 years as they had insane coupons for games at Best Buy letting me getting games like Mass Effect 3 for $10 months after launch. Once the coupons were greatly scaled back I stopped using it sometime in 2011.

Magazines simply lack any reason for me to get one. The news is generally weeks old due to logistics. The reviews hold no value to me and I can get everything and video online from various sources. I have Game Informer for regular stuff, but also regularly go to Siliconera for my niche gamine. Lastly have VG CHartz which is good at keeping me in the loop.
