E-Day

I onlyhave a Wii, so Mario Kart it is.

i didnt really bother checking out reviews. I just pre-ordered it knowing it wouldnt be disappointing

If EGM put out such a compilation, I would buy it if it went back far enough into the 90's, regardless of getting the back issues for Free on here. And it's hard to justify stealing a brand new game that isn't even out yet where you live by comparing it to scanning old magazines that aren't offered by the publisher anymore, using a "what if" scenario. And while you may have only spent a quarter for the DVD to burn the stolen game on, I'll have a nice complete copy to go into my collection with a nice glossy manual. I'm happy to spend my money on good games so that the developer can make more good games in the future.

Yesterday gas was 114.5 cents per litre, which comes up to $4.38 per US Gallon. And we refine most of our own fuel.

You can't "re-buy" something you never bought in the first place. You stole it. I just pre-ordered the game from Dell for CDN$39.99, free shipping. Awesome!

I hope you're going to buy an actual copy when it's released here in a couple weeks...

They might. They've put other foreign games on the VC, so Earthbound might happen. You can always just try and get a copy for the SNES and play that

I can't wait!

I didn't bother reading the article; too lazy. PSX is blah indeed, but the SNES is classic. Since the game is getting a huge makeover, it will probably go on my "to buy" list

Meh. I already own it on the SNES (FF II) and on the PSone. Unless it's been redone with new graphics (3D) and music, I'm passing.

As of April 14, 2008 Scanning: 100% complete Editing: 1% complete Now the fun begins...

Good job. I was actually gonna buy that one if the seller was willing to mail it to KBF for me. At least we got it. Now scan it! (so KBF can mark it on his spreadsheet as obtained :wink:)

Issue #1 of SWATPro, coming home ot me

E-SWAT

I am going to attempt to use my old, slow flatbed scanner to scan: GamePro Issue 90 (labeled 100) January 1997. I'm not sure how it will turn out - if it turns out - but we'll see!

Corner Gas, and Ottawa Senators hockey

You butthole! That's the last time you get me. It didn't click that it was April 1st, though I thought it weird that Ziff-Davis AND Future Publications would send a letter together. Good one, but you are still an butthole Now quit wasting time and get back to scanning those EGMs! Lazy!

I think "Current Affairs" should be called "Off Topic" where everything BUT game magazines the other topics are talked about, and there should be an eBay section where people can post magazines that are currently up for grabs, and where members can state what they are bidding on since eBay hides bidders names. "Retromags News" could maybe be called "Site Talk" or something; with it's current name I see stuff that would logically belong in "Magazine Talk"

I vote that fusoya is a whiny bitch, and that I am not helping with the physical work because with a family, I don't have the time to edit magazines, or scan them manually with my slow, old, flatbed scanner. If I had the Canon Feeder scanner Phillyman uses, then I would be scanning issues pretty quickly. Also, being in Canada, a lot of sellers of the back issues on eBay won't ship here. To make up for the lack of physical help mentioned, I help by donating money, buying issues on eBay and having them shipped to Phillyman or kfb_private_joker, and by doing the NFO files, compiling and uploading the EGMs Phillyman scans and the GamePro's that kbf scans. I do what I can to help out because I enjoy reading the old issues of EGM, GamePro, and other magazines. On a side note, GamePro far from sucks. It was my magazine of choice back in the early to mid 90's, and anytime I bought a game that they reviewed as excellent, it turned out to be just that.

You gotta take the 300 pagers. Those fatso's are what made EGM good

Buy them all! Every EGM and all the GamePros! And whatever else is of interest! Buy buy buy!

I will donate $10 after I am done uploading 2 issues to the ftp and my connection speeds up. And I would be willing to buy some of the duplicates if they weren't too pricey

You deleted them off ofhere, or on your computer? GamePro messed around with their numbering system in 1995 or 1996. When they stopped putting out their SWATPRO magazine, they counted its issue count in the GamePro total, which is why it jumps 10 issues or so. So while they labeled January 1997 as issue 100, it was actually issue 90 or something.

I already know how to get that to happen thanks to redflagdeals.com; I bought two 5-year subscriptions on eBay already for less than $10 each. I want to know how he got EGM for that long. I wouldn't mind having years worth of EGM and Nintendo Power and Game Informer arriving at my house

They've done it for a while when bids went over a certain amount. They started doing it all the time last week I think. Too many forums where members don't bid against each other, I think.
