Bad news.

Although I must admit for last few years I have just read it in WH Smiths instead of buying it. If I do buy a PC Mag these days its normally custom PC.

The First time I bought PC Zone was back in the days when I used to play Quake on the college LAN

I stopped reading PCZone years ago, I've picked it up a few times since but the writing just didn't grab me anymore.

I did at one time have a review published in there though, can't actually remember what of unfortunately.....

I once had a game I made for the speccy reviewed in Computer & Video games as part of a competition. My adventure game came second place

Does anyone else do this?? Graze the shelves rather than buying??

Never ! Can't stand it or seing people who do

I buy or don't read.

I normally have a quick flick through prior to purchase, just to see what else other than the cover stories I can look forward too.

Never stand and read though.

Wow I remember buying the first ever edition, wished I'd kept it now.

I normally od it on my lunch and I only buy if a magazinr has something I can use.

Yeah CVG, CU (Commodore User), ZZap 64 or Amiga Format, PCPlus after working put I'd spent about £6K on computer mags I stopped buying computer magazines in the mid nineties...

I think prints days and therefore future publishing's days are numbered...

The software was generally public domain, shareware, open source etc which most people can now download anyway. The days of a cover CD/DVD are already over.

Sad news, I always had a soft spot for PC Zone and bought it for a long time right from the first issue. Met up with some of the guys from the mag at one point at a PC related show in Birmingham and played against them on a lan there. David 'uber fragmeister' McCandless and Charlie Brooker. I did have the first issue of it and alsp PC Format until a few years ago. I took them into a place I worked along with some other PC gaming relics and the box they were in were stolen when the place was robbed. Ahh well.
