I applied for it about two months ago and I haven't gotten an issue yet. They also don't seem to have my information on file which I think is strange. Anyone else have this problem? If I don't have it, i'll probably end up getting IGN Insider then the subscription along with it.

The only thing I've gotten was a bill from EGM. I tossed it. I talked to a friend of mine who said they received a bill as well and then received their first issue a couple of months later.

I'm still waiting for EGM. I signed up back in December and then again in January, but still nothing. I used to subscribe, so I can check my account, and for about a week a while ago it said "you have 12 issues left ... it is being delivered to ..." but now it says my subscription has ran out and I have 0.
Strange, eh?

I got the bill yesterday, myself. Greedy bastards.
I never got the gamepro yet, but I have gotten 2 issues of PSM so far.

I just realized your pic is of you holding a gun...I thought it was something else, like a weird shampoo bottle or a sextoy.

What did you get a bill for? And would you have to pay it since it says on the webpage you aren't required etc.

i got an email saying that they recieved too many requests for the print version, and they offered me the digital version instead, i took it, but still cannot download the newest issue which is strange considering that EGM says you will recieve each issue 2-3 days sooner with digital, i got the april right away when i signed up, but i got tired of waiting and just went out an bought the newest issue.

You guys should just try paying for the sub I got 4 years of EGM for $4.95
I got the bill in the mail, and then a few weeks later received this email:

Now am I the only one that feels that if these bastards couldn't fill all the subscriptions, then they shouldn't have handed out all those "free subscription" cards to EB games? Why in the hell would you go and hand out more cards than you could fill orders on? Quite frankly, not my problem. I renewed my EB Edge card for this deal alone....bait and switch anyone?
