Ah, Den Norske Hjemmedataklubben. Good times. I still have every issue, including the first (when it was mostly just a big ad for Data-Tronic).

PC Player - maybe a continuation of PC Play - but with actual reviews. My favorite and actually the last game magazine I paid money for.
Game Reactor - free magazine
Super Play - I've got no idea why I have these two (see picture) considering I'm no fan of neither WoW nor Metal Gear Solid. Probably got them for free.
That's all of the Norwegian magazines I got at home.
That's brilliant man :-) I remember DNH as being some sort of ice-cream truck with all these temptations in it =)

heh... gaming magazines. really thing of the past.
Back in poland i tend to read practically all of them
gambler, SGK, SS, Reset, sometimes CD-action (it was a bit too expensive with cds full of stuff i didn't give crap about)
then i just read SGK. best of them all (read reset till the end too :( )
later on i was just buying magazines for the full versions of games as everything inside was practically pointless.
news? i get webpages which are updated hourly not monthly
reviews? 20 other webpages and word of mouth from thousands of people
hardware? 4chan's /g/ and other websites are much more informative than anything in gaming magazine.
the only good thing would be various insights articles. with death of SGK those things disappeared. CD action has (unless it changed in past few years. i got only two issues since 2006) mostly boring, childlish crap.
I miss SGK. greatest of them all.
In aussieland i just read atomic. helps me to understand hardware specific stuff. but for news it is useless too. reviews too of stuff like cpus or gpus. good for other stuff tough.
for gaming. not so much.

rolf. you really should give it a try. it does require 36 episodes to either fall in love with it or just think nothing of it.
nothing wrong with long stuff :)

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks Edge is crap. It's as if people think it's good just because that's what Edge tells them.

Bought a package of old gaming magazines ( PC.GAMES from 2004 ) yesterday for $4.49 with the following games.
- Siege of Avalon Collectors Editinon (Anthology )
- SAGA
- The Fifth Disciple
and many more ( DOS and SCUMM )

We have a few
-Moj Mikro
-Monitor
-SoftWarePower
-PC Format
but I mostly read only
-Joker
A mix of hard facts and funny "insert joke here"'s. In essence, it gives game (PC and all consoles, hand held) reviews, mixed informative an usually on the topic articles (STALKER and a Chernobyl disaster article, for example), some hardware tests and current gamer news with comments. And of corse a psychedelic comic strip. All in all, a very entertaining read.

As far as UK gaming mags go....
GAMES TM:-The first 30 or so issues of Games TM were great, then something happened to the publisher and it appeared to lose some writing quality, but it's still the best produced multi format gaming mag in the UK
EDGE is a very up its own ass type of magazine, considers itself overly important , and frankly I think people buy it because they think it and they are important in the games world, and then it becomes a self forfilling prophecy. It is a wonderfully produced mag ( it looks stunning every issue) but frankly in depth interviews with developers is at best a dull subject.
Gamesmaster is an ok irregular buy, has more to read than edge.
Official PS3 and Official Xbox mag once again tend not to have enough game info in them, and often steer towards dev interviews. DULL.
Official Nintendo mag is simply juvenile.
The un-official Nintendo mags almost ( almost ) give out the same atmosphere as the wonderous Superplay magazine did in the 16 bit era when SNES and MD were the top consoles, and import titles were all the rage.
Frankly, I get most of my info online nowadays. I will say that the Eurogamer website seems to be the web page equivalent of Edge magazine...right up it's own ass.
C&VG website, G4TV are worthy websites.
Magazines need to drop all the dull developer interviews, and fill the mags with retro , lots of pages of news snippets, games reviews, a few pages of hints and tips, lots of artwork, no cover mounts ( to keep prices down and page count up this is very important )
But nothing beats a good mag in your hands...so the best one in the UK at the moment is GAMES TM.

have you fuckin seen the recent PC Gamer issues? that was a staple of my childhood but now i can't even bring myself to buy one in the best of my moods because either their pages are made with super strong nano-thin paper or they are only twenty goddamn pages long (hint: it's the latter). and now every month's DVD comes packed with stupid free-to-play mmo anime games. what's the point anymore?

Yep - They have gone down hill. I liked the older issues with "The Desktop General" aka William R. Trotter. He was my favorite of the freelance writers. I remember one of the December or Holiday Issues being almost an inch thick.

Bah... you guys are a bunch of n00bs! :)
If you want to talk really dinosaur gaming magazines (at least in the US) you gotta go back to CGW (Computer Gaming World). Although it tended to get a little heavy-handed at times, and tended to cover a LOT more Industry News than I ever wanted to read at the time (just get to the games!) this was really an awesome mag. The first issue was back in Nov 1981, but I started reading with issue #47 (May 1988) and I still have those issues up through #112 on my shelf! They were great sources of hints and walkthroughs, especially for old adventure and RPG games, from the likes of Scorpia and other reviewers.
In fact, you can find fully-scanned PDF copies of the first 100 issues of CGW (up through Nov 1992) at the CGW Museum http://cgw.vintagegaming.org/. They stopped scanning with #100 because that's when the magazine switched from being a stapled-together publication to a more "perfect binding" that was glued, making scanning much more difficult. I recently downloaded all 100 issues (be sure to also grab the indexes for AMAZING keyword searches!) and spent the last couple months reading them all! What a great trip down "memory lane" this was!
The guy that runs the site actually owns every single issue of CGW (until it folded in Nov 2006) up through #268. He's trying to gather enough interest to see if he can scan the remaining issues. I personally think the 90s were the "golden age" of games (for me anyway) and would love to see these issues made available again.
Definitely PC GAMER was my 2nd favorite magazine, and it really gave CGW a run for the money when it came out. I remember the first couple issues of PCG came with a 3.5" floppy disc stuck to the cover (I still have them!) I didn't keep many PCGs, but I do have one particularly MASSIVE issue of PCG from the late 90s that was almost 500 pages long! I think it was a Christmas/Holiday issue.
I still read PCG but not with the same enthusiasm (or frequency). One nice thing about it... the DVD that comes with PCG now has a PDF copy of the magazine itself, so I can load it on my iPad and read it any old time. PCG has been putting PDFs of their mags on every DVD for over a year now, so if you kept the old DVDs you can copy them to your PC and throw away the paper copies.
Speaking of PDFs and iPads, I'm hopeful that the new electronic readers will have a positive effect on PC magazines. I don't subscribe to any PC magazine anymore, but if PC GAMER had a cheaper PDF/download subscription to their mag I'd buy it.
Anyone know of a game mag "going download"?

**Sigh** I miss CGW.

I subscribe to GamePro.
