New! mousin's Free Magazine thread!

hey someone care to explain how the ones with this ''(offer required)'' work? i wanna get this mag. Sports Illustrated (offer required).
 
[quote name='yukine']Yeah, I have about 14 (if not more) years of EGM left.

Chances are though, if the magazine does get canceled, we won't be getting anything. They know we got them for free, and so they won't offer us any sort of refund.[/quote]

I know. Just having a little fun joking about my stacked subs.

[quote name='neocisco']First Rhino gets sold and now possibly EGM and GfW could potentially be canceled. Not good. I'm still waiting for my first issue of GfW. If they do cancel EGM they're going to owe me for the 6 years that I've already pai--uh, signed up for.[/QUOTE]
I just got a GfW recently. If you just recently signed up for the offer, then you might not receive it for a while. It can take 2-3 months sometimes.

It means you have to sign up for an offer, like one of those Congo line type "deals".
[quote name='SaMiDaDrAgOn']I thought EGM was one of the more popular gaming magazines, why would they trash it?[/QUOTE]
It is, but with the internetz offering more up-to-date news, they're kinda becoming more and more obsolete.
 
I thought I had EGM till the year 3056 but my new issue came today with an envelope inside. Haven't looked at it yet but I wonder if my sub is done.

Go to Best Buy and buy something. You will be offered like 8 free issues of your choice like Sports Illustrated, Time, Entertainment Weekly, etc. Just cancel after you get your 8th issue.
 
I got my first two issues of GfW today. It's funny because I bought the January issue when I was at EB Games because I figured I wouldn't get it through the subscription until the Feb. issue, and then I got home and got the Jan. and Feb. issues in the mail.
 
I got only one issue of GfW, but who knows maybe the other is in the mail? Doesn't matter really just shows that I got the Sub.

Thanks 6669!

If its your first issue of your current subscription, then sometimes they'll throw in the previous month's issue, just to shorten your subscription length.
 
Got my first issue of SPIN today! w00t!

Sub is good until December.


Ordered Guns and Ammo, even though I'm no 2nd amendment fan.


This is like the fifth magazine sub that has gone through. 6669 rules!


EDIT: They picked TV on the Radio's Return to Mountain album of the year? NVM, this magazine sucks balls.

Well, I haven't checked my mail yet today so it could be there, who knows. But it did say the sub ends Dec 07. So yea, I should be getting it.

can't wait for another sub so I can put more time on it, Thanks!
 
[quote name='SpreadTheWord']The first one doesn't have EMG available. It's check box is shadowed out.

The second one says "The server at vgxpo.com is taking too long to respond." after I enter my info.[/QUOTE]
Then they might have both expired now. IDK what they plan on doing, with the sale of 1up.com, and loss of OPM. Just keep checking here.
 
i just got my first issue of a years worth of EGM, used the mercury magazines link on the first post around december last year. Thanks a bunch OP!!
 
Was there ever a Gamepro free sub? I can't see myself paying for their magazine, yet I had a subscription for the last year or so. Does anyone still have a link?

Thanks for the reply, but now I want to know where/how the hell I got the magazine! There's no way I would've paid for a subscription.

There was an offer for it here about 3 years ago, when I first came to this site. I think it was through a link on their website, with a promo with Best Buy or something.
 
Just got my first EGM doing the Canadian trick. Thought it was my Nintendo Power and went "wtf? Halo? GTA?" then realized EGM finally came =P
 
[quote name='spider24']looking for Cigar Aficiando and/or Toyfare. thnx for the "HOOKUP'S"[/QUOTE]
Never seen either of those here.
On the bright side, I got my first Comic Book Buyer's Guide today. I signed up for that one a long ass time ago.
 
I had a question about Games for Windows. I still had over a year on my sub for computer gaming world, once it changed to GfW I stopped receiving it. Tried to look up my account in ziff davis customer support but it says I have no account. This happen to anyone else?
