News Hounding

I want to congratulate you on a great mag. I want to know if Digitiser (Channel 4 Text, page 480) is one of Future Publishing's sisters. If they are not they are copying your stories, or IGN's. The news they produce and the reviews are almost exactly the same. I just wanted to raise this issue to you.

FG: Digitiser are in no way affiliated or otherwise connected to Future Publishing. I don't know if they, like us, have a news feed from IGN. I doubt very much they're actually copying our stories, it's just that they get to hear about them at around the same time we, and most other gaming news sites, do.

Got an opinion or a question? Write to me at andy.smith@futurenet.co.uk...
