Hi,
I picked up some XBox Live game magazines in the library today and i was totally shocked. The articles are totally unreadable. After reading a few articles, i came to the conclusion that these articles were saying nothing at all. The English is horrible. Does anyone subscribe to this magazine? Anyone know if the magazine was published by the Americans or Brits?

Magazines are a thing of the past. Physical media is on its was out. Some things are slow to die like videogames (fortunately), but magazines have been pretty much dead to the every day consumer for a long time.

Official Xbox Magazine is still around? I remember it from years ago, I think they were okay then but never subbed.

There's always be a physical market for movies and books. Television, not so much, unfortunately. Streaming is objectively better than traditional broadcasting. More permanent, you know. I think games will be the first form of media to go entirelydigital, which is unfortunate. |

@liscensedgames never said anything about books and movies, but magazines. Who buys them anymore?

Plenty of people still buy magazines. Like music, it may not be as many as before, but there is still and probably will always be a demand for them. As far as games going all digital, I highly doubt that would ever happen. Unless the industry wants to sell fewer games, since some areas have poor or no internet, and there are plenty of gamers that just don't like digital games.
