This seems pretty good..seems pretty MMORPG orientated, sadly.

Just get a laptop with a wireless connection and LAMINATE it! By 'it' I mean the whole laptop.

Or the bath, and water. And yourself.

Edit - Slightly offtopic, the Vanguard review is pleasingly much like my expectations. A deeper and more satisfying alternative to WoW with the same core mechanics that made it fun to play - yes please!

And yes, I realise it's probably more similar to Everquest than anything else, but the comparisons are inevitable. Like it or not, WoW is now the benchmark :P

I don't get it why you folks like it, a magazine style format is not suited for a monitor, it just makes it harder to read, just put the stories like gamespot or ign.

I agree, the whole format is terrible, I don't like it.

It's something different, I like it, but yes...I am not fond of the whole turn page...wait to load..weird thing

True, dragging around a page isn't really ideal, but it's a pretty cool concept nonetheless. Also it suffers the same problem gamerzines.com does - low quality jpegs =/

That was interesting... a bit of a pain to navigate though.
Click edge of page, page turns... click spot on page to zoom and read...

Meh, I'll stick to real magazines.
