Have a look at the comic strip called 'Otakuman' on the three back issue samples, it's rather funny.

Looks pretty interesting doesnt it? 4 issues for Â£7, might be worth a dabble.

Issue 2 - Homebrew development wrote:Archer MacLean gushing over the original Playstation, Dave Perry going weak at the knees over Saturn, Jeff Minter abandoning the mainstream to live in sin with Nuon technology. It's sickening.

What a great article

Or read them in non-pdf format with all four available: http://www.armyoftrolls.co.uk/aot_websi ... akuman.htm

I'm not a fan. It tries so hard to sound exactly like Edge, it's embarrasing.

Hi, my name's Dan Croucher, and I co-edit Blessed with Michael French. I just wanted to post up to let everyone know that Blessed is still going strong, very strong. We just sent out Issue 5, and are working on 6. The website is due an update, which will happen soon, so we'll have pdfs of more articles, as well as Crashlander and Otakuman up to #5.

Mr. Resetti, I don't agree, but the good part is that we have many contributors, some of who do one-offs on specialist subjects, and so if some features don't appeal, some others will. We don't have a strong 'house-style' like Edge, just good writers.
And while I'm sounding like a press-release, I should say that Blessed is getting better and better, Issue 5 was very well-received, we're committed to this in the long-term and you should SUBSCRIBE now before you miss the boat and all your friends laugh and point at you.

Thanks,

Dan

In which case I'm delighted to both retract and delete my previous internet-rumour-style post!

Very best of luck to you, all looks great.

Cheers

Wonderful! I've got myself a subscription.

Actually, I think I may be addicted to magazines.

You're not the only one!

I try not to think about how much I spend on them each month.
