Meh, for me it's just that everything was just a blatant commercial. Everyone in every zine was a shill. You still have that a lot, but it's not JUST that anymore, which is great. The New Games Journalism movement in the mid-late 2000s was the best thing that ever happened to games writing. You can yell skeleton ILLUMINATI about it all you want, but stuff like The Gamer's Quarter had people writing about games like actual human beings experiencing the artform. It wasn't just some robotic advertisement with shitty attempts at humor thrown in.


What made Game Pro the worst to me was that it was basically Poochie in magazine form.

You're welcome. Wasn't super relevant, but I thought somebody might be interested anyway.

I still go back to issues to Gamer's Quarter and smile every time.


What made Gamepro the worse to me was that it was basically Poochy in magazine form. You could eventhe cartoon animals and made up names were because they were (understandabley) ashamed about writing in it.
