Good-bye GFW Magazine

Another one bites the dust. Games for Windows (formerly Computer Gaming World ) is no more. The editors will be working full-time for 1UP. What does that leave us in the US now, just PC Gamer ?

I pray for the day PC Gamer finally just dies I have been a subscriber for many many years and I have been watching a good magazine slowly decline into [censored] over the past one or 2. It will be my last subscription cycle in any case.

Actually GFW was Computer Gaming World. Computer Games Magazine was a different one, that was the one screwed over by the Globe (?).

Why couldn't the Internet claim Pc Gamer instead.

Whoops! Thanks for the correction, Scott. I've corrected my original post. I never could keep the names straight.

I recall having a subscription to them... they wouldn't let me cancel it....(both of them)

I don't like magazines much anymore, too much adds and dead trees and such. Most of the info and reviews are available ver the interblag anyway, one way or another....
