Dear Future Gamer

Yours is surely the future of games magazines and knocks a lot of paper magazines that are already available into a cocked hat, but I get the impression that UK software houses just aren't aware of your potential. In America, software houses treat Internet publications as more important than print magazines, yet I don't see you chaps getting all the big games first. Why's this?

Paul Johnson


FG: Some are more aware than others, Paul. We're still a little way behind America when it comes to the use and understanding of the Internet, but we're getting there. Software houses are waking up to our potential but they're not usually renowned for their swiftness to see the potential in something new. It's improving but it's a slow process.
