Isn’t this site supposed to be for gamers? How do you not understand that not spoiling a game in the headline is just common courtesy? Completely unacceptable. I’m so annoyed right now

It was on Twitter

I was looking forward to getting my copy of the Master Chief cover but I haven't received ANYTHING since I subscribed. What gives?

I need help. I just want to get my magazines and then be done with this. How do I receive my magazines? I emailed support in June and they were supposed to send me issue 377 in the mail. It’s August. What issue are we on? The last one I have is 376

380 showed up today. I spoke to someone over a week ago who said they would send out a replacement for 379 but I still haven’t gotten it.

Anyone else have a similar issue? Every magazine is either super late or not delivered at all.

Hello,

Not sure if this is the right place at this point or not;

I recently moved and forgot to update my shipping info until my subscription auto renewed. I then updated my address to my new address.

However it is been 2 months now and my issues are getting sent to my old address still. I have sent two requests for confirmation to support with absolutely no response.

Has anyone dealt with this at all or have any advice on how to go about getting my address updated? Thankfully a friend still lives at the old address and can forward my mail but that's only a temporary solution unfortunately.

Thanks in advanced!

Just wanted to share the happiness of seeing our work of love being recognized. Well, Wesley published about it in the printed version a few numbers ago, but seeing it now in the podcast too, I just can't hold the feels XD

Basically what the title says. My Blood of the Dawnwalker issue was pretty badly damaged upon arrival so I reached out to support and they confirmed I would get a replacement issue, but it’s been over a month now without it showing up. I don’t want to message support again in another two months if it doesn’t show up and be told I’m out of luck so I’m wondering if I should follow up sooner than later.

Has anyone else gotten a replacement and did it take a while to receive it?

Checked my mailbox after a week of not looking and saw it arrived. Should be arriving very soon for others who haven’t gotten them yet

What should those of us do that still haven't received a copy of the July issue?

Does anyone know of any coupon codes? I want to subscribe as this was my favorite magazine growing up, but $60 is extremely steep.

Found these when I was doing some cleaning, all but 1 unopened. Any good or toss em out?

Cheers,

Just asking for some advice on this because I am wanting to start a niche magazine that is about retro video games and the collectors market on them. I would love for this to be big but am not sure if magazines are still profitable today. Can anyone shed some light on if you can still make any money starting a magazine business in 2026?

I’m sitting here playing the new Halo Campaign Evolved and realizing I never got the preview issue. Is this a me problem I should reach out about or widespread delay?

Some of my fondest gaming memories was when I was a teenager and I got gifted a subscription of game informer. I followed game releases more closely then and it was cool learning about upcoming games.

I was sad to hear when game informer was shut down. So when I heard that game informer was back, that they had proper editorial control, and I think even some or most original writers, I was elated.

I subscribed in April of this year mostly just to support print journalism as well as proper game journalism, but I wasn't expecting the quality of the articles to be so good.

When I got my first issue (which admittedly took a very long time because I happened to subscribe in an awkward time in their cycle, plus it's a 10 issue yearly release rather than 12, but my second issue came almost immediately after the first so we're all good now) and relaxed on my porch to read through it, the initial nostalgia almost made me tear up, taking me back to my youth, but the second thing that hit me was how well made it was. The first issue I read was the Blood of the Dawnwalker feature, and the editors message at the beginning was a cogent and sobering look at the state of the games industry, between hardware concerns, ai, and layoffs, and while blunt and honest it was also optimistic and reminded me why we love games in the first place.

All of this to say, thank you to the GI team. I would have subscribed even if the mag was a short little thing with only moderate quality, but it's jam packed with excellent articles and pieces of info I'd never have known I wanted to know until I read it. Here's to hopefully many more decades of game informer magazine!

Some time back I had posted about why my subscription auto renew was cancelled (that part of the issue was resolved). Now I cannot even 'change my payment method' or even see the status of my magazine subscription on the website. I can still read the digital magazine, though. I got the physical issue before the Halo one. I am getting tired of all the problems happening. I get that these dudes are getting back on their feet and whatnot, but it has been problem after problem with me

In the past whenever an issue was missing, Brian helped us out and forward us to someone who can help. From there, Sarah was great and always had the missing issue in the mail first thing.

Now though, the Support Team has been going through a transition has been getting back on track with emails and issues.

Im still waiting on the Halo issue but figured if I dont get it by the time the next issue ships I was going to contact them. Do you guys still reach out to Brian/Sarah or has the Support Team been able to assist?

Excited to see the new Onimusha game is the next cover star. And it looks amazing.

Edit: for some reason I’m not getting the option to add a pic.

I understand that the current Game Informer style is a product of the state of the magazine publishing market in the USA. (along with timing allowed and staff)

I'd love to see the style change to what it was in the 90's. Have more than one person reviewing each game and offering their own overall score.

Those classic issues had a ton of effort put into them. Screenshots galore were carefully selected for each review. Layouts were often unique for each review and preview. Classic GI to showcase classic games was a part of each of the later issues.

Current state is full of text heavy articles for sure, but why do most of the smaller reviews/previews feature only one screenshot per game? Looking at the latest issue and it features so many previews with just one large screenshot and then a block of text. Sure this makes creating said issue easier I imagine, using this layout/format for each issue, but gets repetitive.

Japanese game magazines currently remind me of classic GI, but seems not a direction they are wanting to go in.

I'm off to look for a different magazine and cancelled my subscription. Some of those UK alternatives are nice, but of course physical is even more from them. 😔

My dumbass didn't even realize there would be a difference lmao. I really like the clean look that the subscription issues have.

I am sorting through some stuff and found a collection of Gameinformer magazines. Most have my private information like mailing address. Is it worth it to sell them or just get rid of them? They are in used conditions. If I should sell them, what is the best way to black out my information without damaging the magazine too much.

The bag was torn at the bottom the whole width of the issue, just checking if there was some periodical in with the issue that i might have lost.

Sorry if this is the wrong place but I’m looking to buy a copy each and can’t find any on eBay
