Got my subscription issue yesterday. I couldn't be more pleased. As has been stated, the mag gives some depth to games that otherwise would be passed over. Stretch Panic sounds amazingly weird and very cool. I haven't seen or heard anywhere NEAR this much info on this game before and it's a crying shame, as it looks VERY original.
I've read the thing pretty close to cover to cover at this point and brought it to work today to go through again. Even beyond the content, which is GREAT, I love the quality of the materials they have choosen to use. MAJOR thick and glossy cover and substantial pages inside (that really allow for quality images).
I can only hope that the mag really takes off so we can get a dose on a monthly basis as opposed to ten issues a year.
BTW, I will also be making a point to frequent the businesses that have advertised in GameGo and let them know where I saw their advert. They had a faith in the mag and what it was trying to do before it had even been published, as did all of us other subscribers. I want to be sure and let them know that their faith was rewarded by my business.
Back to the mag. I also very much enjoyed the looks at older stuff, be it through the review of MUSHA or the look at the musicians from Winds/Lords of Thunder. Great stuff.
My only criticism at this point is that HaohmaruGO is just Haohmaru in the mag. I like the "GO" at the end. Haohmaru is in Sam Sho. HaohmaruGO is the guy in the mag. Unless, of course, HaohmaruGO translates into "Haohmaru has a little dick," in Japanese, where I would certainly understand the reason for the name change. <IMG SRC="smilies/glee.gif" border="0">
