Damn. I grew up with print media, there was a great feeling in reading about games that were coming and seeing the photos long before they were available.
Waiting for fatality guides for the new MK's, seeing what Sushi-X's and Quarterman latest rumors were.
Wondering what next months Nintendo Power cover would be.
Nostalgia is a hell of a drug but print media never stood a chance in the modern climate. Especially as resources get more constrained and readers continue to decline.
I will always miss real, written journalism though. It feels like we are never going back to that, even online.
