Great thread of some different covers

The Max Payne 3 one is so cool

Game Informer was probably the best gaming journalism platform ever imo. Always stayed tune cause they had dope coverage. It felt grand everytime I opened that page.

However, when it was bought by GameStop it kind of lost that essence. But it for sure had longevity and kept in with the times.

End of an era
Crazy how I use to dream about working there

literally only relevant for their covers. who was reading those?

sad but that's the way of the future

i remember when they offered a subscription with the gamestop memberships so i remember my family had a subscription in the early 2010s and this was before smartphones were a big thing so i would read them on the toilet

i remember having this issue, it’s a shame they cancelled this for R6 SIEGE

also the themes of American domestic terror is kinda eerie to look back on considering the year this was made

i don’t think ubi would ever make a game like this again lol

Holy s***

Potential lost media info

the pre release spread of last of us was so awesome and def inspired me creatively for years

Still have that Max Payne one

I remember my dad signed up for it at GameStop once when I was a kid

I remember having the gta 4 one and a few others

damn, end of an era. i got so many old game informer mags from back in the day when i was subscribed to them

Every issue of Game Informer at my childhood public library was always left with torn pages. Also remember reading an article about Animal Crossing: Wild World that influenced me to buy the game.

The covers are crazy
End of an era

Were they the ones that had the CD demos in the 360 Era?

this issue had me thinking we were getting the best game ever

Just copped an extra 30 issues I was nostalgic about

Real. Buy them now the prices are probably going to get super jacked up as the years go buy

Have issues 110-200

Contemplating getting more

you a real reader

It was a GI's back post

Highly ignorant post

They had many exclusives in both coverage and especially developer interviews that was only accessible through the actual mags, and game concept art

Legendary company in gaming and very important
