is it just me or can you not bloody find GameInformer in the US? or maybe it's just the backwoods Barnes & Noble we have here in Alabama. Either way... pity me because I can't get a copy.... My hopes and dreams have been shattered

*feigns distress*

:rip:

I'm in northern Alabama right now, eviljim, and as far as I can tell, I'd have to either drive to Tennessee or Birmingham to get that damned magazine.

Good question...what happens to Morrowind Source?

Guess I'll just make it TES:Source or something similar.

I can't find this magazine, and I live in the second largest city in Indiana.

So there actually is a place in Huntsville that has it.... I thought I had called eveywhere. And that's only a 50 mile drive for me. :lol:
Seriously, though, choosing a mag sold in so few places, and only in the US, was a horrible PR decision by BethSoft. I was originally able to do a little creative Googling and see scans, but they seem to have found them all and shut them down since, so that even that is no longer a possibility. How many people are actually willing to drive 50-100 miles to go to the only store in their area that carries this thing? And how many would actually suscribe for a year just to get a single issue? They tout that it carries the console gaming world's largest subscription at 2 million plus, but why would you limit yourself to those 2 million people?

Very good question... probably has to do with a contract saying something along the lines of GameInformer saying: "We have the biggest reader base in America. We'll print your story if you give us exclusive rights" or something along those lines.
