   Summary: One of the Better Gaming Mags
Since first getting this mag from Gamestop as one of those free add on things you get when you buy games there I have come to really like it. Unlike other magazines who only seem to care about backing one system or another Game Informer talks about everything that is going on in the gaming world, even addressing the serious issues of children and M rated games.

   Summary: Rock on, GameInformer
In the world of gaming, there are specialized magazines for each system (PlayStation Magazine, Xbox Mag, etc.), most of which suck because they only report on (duh) games on their respective systems. Others, like Electronic Gaming Monthly, encompass most systems but only do it half-assed, not really giving you anything to make you think highly of it. Then, there's GameInformer. There are many things that set GameInformer apart from many other "gaming" magazines:

1) They have completely unbiased opinions about the games they play. If the game sucks, they say so; if it's an awesome game, they'll tell you about it.

2) Matt Helgeson (Senior Gaming Editor) and the other editors actually inform you about the game's most necessary attributes: its ESRB rating (E to M), their rating for the game (from 1 to 10), and a brief introduction to the game's faults and successes. Best of all, however, they include screenshots from the game- and most screenshots rock.

These are just some of the reasons that GameInformer magazine is the absolute best gaming magazine on the market. I have a subscription to this magazine and this magazine only, and I hope my review has explained why.

   Summary: Game Informer is great.
I got a Game Informer Magazine subscription from Game Stop about 2 years ago. I love this magazine and I have been getting it ever since.

In this magazine they have reviews of games rating from E to M. Each review has atleast one screen shot with it. If you like to find gameing acessories and gaming novelty toysa they have that in this magazine too. And at the begining of each new year there is a Year-in-Review of all the games of that year.

I love this Magazine and you will too.

   Summary: A Great Magazine
Overall, this is the best gaming magazine I have read. It covers all consoles, gives sensible (and funny) reviews, and previews the hottest upcomming games.

Most games are reviewed by two people, adding to the accuracy of the score. It has a rating of 1-10, 10 being the best, a rating which precious few games recieve.

The previews section gives you a sneek peek of upcomming games. Some of them are one page long, some ten. They all include pictures, and most have an estimated release date.

Also, there is a section on news in the game industry. Ususlly near the beginning of the magazine, they include news on developers, consoles, and the big names in the industry.

All in all, this is a great magazine, and well worth your money, because each issue is well over 100 pages.
