IN THIS ISSUE

UT3
Gears of War was just a warm-up. We visit Epic Games to get our hands on Unreal Tournament 3 -- and reveal the first details of the single-player (!) mode.

Love+Hate
Warren Spector, Bill Roper, Chris Taylor, and other game industry giants gather to discuss what's great -- and not so great -- about the game biz.

Confessions of a Hit Man
Got a score to settle in Battlefield 2? One self-proclaimed gun-for-hire griefs gamers for a living -- yes, in exchange for actual cash.

World of WarCraft: The Burning Crusade
Is life in Outland really all it's cracked up to be? Just how serious an issue is mana addiction? We review the biggest expansion pack ever.

Universe at War: Earth Assault
We chat with Petroglyph (Star Wars: Empire at War) about their new ambition -- creating a massively multiplayer real-time strategy game.

gears is nothing like UT. I like gears because its slower paced. UT is very fast.

Not trying to sound like an asshole, but no shit. :lol

Of course I meant graphically lol. I don't expect big changes from the core of UT gameplay. Which is why I can't wait for it. :D

You can subscribe to them sort of with Zinio that will then should just allow you to download each issue as they come out i think.

Anyone from Ziff (or who know about this) can confirm that with the subscription of Zinio they are the ones getting the money? I am interested in EGM and GFW and Zinio looks a great service but I need to know if it´s legal.

oh hey. I'd like to know about this aswell. as currently I have paid for a subscription but it appears the issues of the magazines aren't actually being delivered, or can't be delivered. I don't know what's going on, but nevermind that. if this stuff works, I'll just buy these digital copies instead. was only $20 or something anyway for the other subscription, no big deal

Thinks his PR is better than yours.
As much as I like free e-mags, I've passed on all of them due to that pos Zinio. I'll be all over it if they ever decide to use the standard/superior pdf.

Hopefully not. I thought the cover system and it's oft clunky mechanics were the worst part of the game.

Yeah. I've seen more than one person who do not like cover system of Gears. Personally, I like it very much.

Last UT I played was UT 2003. It's been long time since then. I am excited about UT3. Will buy it for PC.

While reading interview of Chris Taylor from Apr 2007 issue, I found this interesting information:

GFW: Easy there, Chris-you've still got games to make. What else have you got on tap? Are you still wholly devoted to PC gaming, or have you looked into entering the console market?
Chris Taylor: Absolutely. We're always looking and, believe it or not, we have a brand-new, original game that we're working on that hasn't been announced yet. I can tell you that it's being developed for the Xbox 360-and that's because we love the platform and think the 360's online experience is world-class

:) I would love to play this game. I just hope it's not RTS. I prefer RTS on PC.

I really don't know how Americans put up with so many pages for adverts. Still it's not as bad as Vogue which I physically laughed at in a hairdressers once.

I haven't tried Zinio in some time, but can't you just press a button to skip past ads, same way you'd flip past them in print? That said, I know that many Euro mags have loud alarms that trigger when readers attempt to breeze past ads without lingering on each. : P

I enjoyed the Love/Hate article.

It's just so annoying to read on a computer screen. I'll read the rest when the physical mag comes in the mail.

I know posting scans of US mags is not allowed, I don't know in this case since the mag is free and for download. Just take the easy route and download the magazine yourself.
