I just got this press release today about a new online magazine, called The Escapist. Looks pretty cool, if anyone wants to check it out.

http://www.escapistmagazine.com/issue/1

Any thoughts?

I think you're missing the point of the magazine. It's supposed to be about gamers and gaming culture, not the actual games themselves......sheesh!

thats the whole point gaming is a retarded culture just because you play video games doesnt mean you have to be a "gamer" or what not. Same with those faggoty straight edge kids its fine that you dont drink or smoke but you dont have to brandish it with homogay clothing and Xing it up everywhere I dont drink or do anything like that but that doesnt make me wanna look like a fucking retard flailing around...(thats what they call dancing)

There is, indeed, a point at which labeling becomes stupid and overrated. (see: those straight edge kids) However, I don't think the gamer culture has reached this point.

Also, I feel sorry for people like you who obviously harbor way too much hostility for things they don't understand or have no desire to try to understand (and those who have not grasped the basic concept of grammar and punctuation).

Well, then. I suppose I'll post my 2 cents and leave it at that.

The article about Greg Gordon irks me. I belive RPGs should remain where they truly shine - the PC. I do own a couple RPGs for consoles - Fable, Morrowind, etc, but the majority of my collection lies within my PC collection.

RPGs are just too large in expanse and too complicated to really do right on a mobile platform.

I love the article by Max Steele, though. I own a DS and love it. He definitely gives Sony an insulting slap to the face with his predictions for the PSP.

Bah, I don't care. It's not my zine, but I found it interesting. Not my fault no one around here wants to dissect journalism with me.
Oh well.
