Dear Future Gamer

I think the mag is tops. Of course, it's free, which is another great benefit, and who could complain at such a good price? I think a few improvements could be made, though, such as more screenshots. You only seem to have them on your full reviews and I'd like to see some on the minis and even the news section, if you have them. I know your site is online and you have pics there, but some on the mag would make it so much easier because they can take so long to show up online. Also, I think you could still keep the mag free and give away more. I don't know what - perhaps demos of games or, well, I don't know. That's your job.

Jippy


FG: It's been a long time since someone mentioned the lack of visuals in the deliverable so I guess it's time to restate why we don't have many. We aim to keep the magazine down to below 300k to make it quicker to download. Unfortunately, pictures use up a whole load of k so we can't carry that many. As you point out, we have loads of screenshots at the website, where size isn't an issue, so if you really need to see more pictures of a game then you can always head there.
