ULTIMATE PC GAMING AUTHORITY

For a magazine from 2007-2008 it's interesting how dated and 90s these covers feel. Like who the hell was still saying "frag" when Bioshock was coming out?

Orange Box? Left 4 Dead? These aren't even GFWL titles, come on guys

Even though it’s the slop equivalent of its time I have so much nostalgia for these gaming magazines omg my 14 year old self used to get so excited when I saw a new EGM in the mailbox

That and PC Gaming (for a while) for me. I'd always look forward to every issue that came. Now, "can't I just find that stuff online?".

Why is everything here making me feel like a boring adult yes-honey-left

At least gaming magazines weren't pipelines into becoming a nazi
