But game magazines were usually in tye same stores the games were being sold at right? Why didn't you glance through one  before purchasing a game?

I remember the magazines didnt always show all the games at the store.  I had to make decisions by the box art and how it looked like at the back of the box lol  I must say those were good times blindly buying games without a single clue hehe

Yeah, it worked in some games favor, and didn't others though. I remember thinking Suikoden's (the original) boxart looked so terrible (like a really cheap jrpg) that it put me off buying it until I heard talk about it around the schoolyard.

Amazing series, terrible boxart.
