That would be Edge.

Cause there's nothing hipsters love more than Halo and Bayonetta.

Is it wrong of me to imagine that those people who throw "hipster" around constantly and innaccurately are fat, neckbearded slobs?

Bu...bu...but UGO buying them was supposed to be a good thing!

(does 1up seriously not have ANY money to pay their staff...)

Gamepro seems to be putting together a respectable stable of talent over there while 1Up becomes even less relevant. Frankly, once Garnett Lee left I stopped giving even half a shit about 1Up.

Edge are British, so the phrase is dickheads, not hipsters.

1Up is the only video game site I consume content from; I listen to Retronauts. Every other site I just don't read or know anything about.

Yes. Many of them are scrawny, weasel-like slobs.

Gamepro and EGM are growing, 1UP is shrinking. Strange times.

Not so sure about the EGM part. Seems like their EIC has changed once every two months since it came back, and I can't imagine that EGMi is getting all that much traffic.

Also, Gamepro has been pretty disappointing the latest couple of issues. It was awesome for the few months Davison was in charge, and 1-2 months after he left, but now we're stuck with embarrassing exploitative covers like this, as if Davison was never there in the first place:

What the fuck happened to the artful minimalist awesomeness?

1UP needs another 1UP à la Cifaldi and we're Yuji Bro-riis again, no matter how many galleries stretching 40 something pages (thanks to SEGA and Intel) and top whatever lists have come between us.
