Electronic Gaming Monthly, one of the oldest, and most respected video games magazines in North America is dead.
My feelings on this one are mixed. It really had to go. Review focused magazines such as EGM are dinosaurs in the age of instant access to information. I am not one of those people who says that print is dead, but the future of the enthusiast gaming press is editorially focused publications such as the UK's EDGE. Even so I've read EGM off and on since the early 90s. and have a lot of fond memories.
It is a shame that due to the suddenness of the magazine's closure they were unable to give such a historical publication a proper sendoff.
