They also had a big special on GTA : Vice City, a big review on Mario Sunshine and the football games, and a big preview of the online feautres of the big 3 systems... mostly bashing Nintendo, and slightly bashing Xbox as they "disagree" with them excluding 56K users, all the while saying that it will be nice to not have to deal with 56K.

Bruce Lee sucked, but to give it a 1 is just silly. I'd give it a 3 or a 4... throw them a frickin bone at least.

Wait a minute, Game Informer is supposedly the biggest magazine? This has to be some sort of mistake... Game Informers are impossible to find (for me-- and that has to count for something) and I'm quite sure that many people have not even heard of it. There is no way it is outselling EGM, or even crappy GamePro for that matter.

I'm guessing if they are the biggest it's because of the promo with Gamestop. Where you get a subcription with joining the used games club. That's how they got me. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten my new issue yet.

I also get GameInformer now because of my GAmestop membership card..
According to the "letter from the editor", they are the most circulated videogame magazine..
So, yes they are bigger than EGM and whatever press-release made to look like a gaming magazine.
