I've been a fan of EGM since the early days before I even considered myself to be a hardcore gamer. Of all the gaming magazine's I've read and have subscribed to, EGM was the magazine that I trusted above all the other competition. I'm deeply saddened to lose something that's been such a big part of my life since I was a child.

Not only will I miss EGM, but to lose 1UPs podcasts is an even harder blow to take. As I've grown in age I personally know fewer and fewer people that are interested in gaming, and when I listened to the podcasts (particularly 1UP Yours) or watched the 1UP Show it instilled a sense of nostalgia from my early childhood that very few things do. It remimded me of the utter enjoyment I had just talking about games and what was to come in the year(s) ahead with a group of close friends.

While I have no doubt the talented individuals from EGM will move on to bigger and better things it's a shame it had to end the way it did. I hope the EGM staff gets back on their feet as quickly as possible. For anyone to loose their job is an unfortunate circumstance especially during our current economic hardship.

Yeah but even though I love Gears 1 & 2, it's just more of the same with some added functionality. Save for the whorde mode anyway, and don't even get me started on the train wreck that is multiplayer. They needed to fix a lot of things before ever putting out a new map pack!!

Oops, I meant to say clicked.

By the way, to all of those that did not buy any of EA's new IP's this year, don't even complain if they go back to crappy games next year! IMO your right to complain is hereby forfeit!!

Thanks a lot!

P.S.
Mirror's Edge and Dead Space are awesome games!

Nice job on the article GR!! It was a great read and I was gaining more and more anticipation as I clicke for each next page.
