Customer Reviews of Gamepro - Ca

This was my first video game mag, so it's special to meh!
I like Gamepro. I actually miss how they used the silly faces for the ratings. I guess it was "immature", but "F" that! Seriously! <
> <
>And now, it's half way filled with advertisements, advertisements and more advertisements. Not very appealing when you want information on your favorite games, and you have to skip through an advertisement every two pages, sometimes every other page! <
> <
>I know they pay for GamePro to even "Be", but I still don't like the amount. <
> <
>I like how they do the yearly "Presents to Get for X-Mas", and I've liked the Questions section, as well as the section that fills you in on glitches and such, as well as the section that gives you tips on how to fix things, game-related. <
> <
>Also, the info. on what video game is selling the best towards the end, is also a nice edition. <
> <
>The new ratings set up is good also. I just liked the silly pictures more. <
> <
>And what happened to half of the GamePro staff?! It almost completely changed!!!! <
> <
>It's not the best gaming magazine I've ever read. That's probably EGM [[ASIN:B00005N7PX Electronic Gaming Monthly]], but I'm not reviewing that, because GamePro broke my gaming info... <

Craptacular!!!
I am utterly disappointed in the direction that Gamepro has taken over the past two years. I actually stopped my subscription for about 1 year, but came back to the 20 issues for $10 at their (10?) year anniversary. I forget. But the magazine is really bad. <
> <
>One thing I laugh is, the retro corner. They have info about issues from 5 and 10 years before, and they always announce the number of pages from 10 years ago. I think the most recent issue, they said: 140 pages? Huh? I think my last issue was around 100. And don't try to tell me they've lost 40 pages in advertising. <
> <
>Too bad on-line reviews and websites, are taking over the subscriptions of the hardcopy magazines. I'll stick with hardcopy until the end of my life. Or until the quality of these types of magazines gets so low, I can't stand it anymore. Or until my subscription runs out on this craptacular effort. <
> <
>You guys were pretty good 5 years ago, but you've gone to pot these past two years! I'm talkin' to you Watchdawg!!! <
> <
>You guys are suckin' lately!!! <

10 years ago, I'd have given it five stars.
There is absolutely no reason to buy this horrid excuse for a gaming magazine. Maybe it's because the brand-new games are downright bland and shallow compared to the simplicity and charm of 8 to 32-bit eras. Maybe it's because they constantly put stupid ads in it that have nothing to do with gaming at all (Nature's Cure, I'm looking in your direction!). Maybe it's because their new layout looks absolutely boring and sterile compared to the excellence of the mid-'90s layout. Maybe it's because they continue to slam certain games and series like the Sonic games where they say that Sonic 2 was the last great game. Maybe it's because their reviews aren't any interesting to read. Maybe it's because the staff tries too hard to inject humor and their writing is absolutely shallow. Maybe it's because they failed to realize they did so much better in the '90s. Maybe it's all of those things. Yeah, that's the one.
