First time out of the vault
Hey folks,
we have done a game magazine and would like your point of view on it.

Its called Probe,
and you find it on the url:
http://www.probe-mag.com

Take a look and come back with some feedback.
I would really like to hear what you say.
[You got to have the latest flash plug in]

Have a nice day!
Gobias

Uh-huhuhhuhh... "Probe" huhuhuhuhuh.
 
The magazine looks good but I think it needs more content. I like how that Wasteland game cover was in there though. :wink: It did not offer anything new, except for the retro game music which I liked but the songs ended too fast. Please try to add more content and let the retro music play, lol. Good job and good luck.
 
I only had a quick look, but unfortunately I didn't really like what I saw.
The content seems fine, but it does not benefit from the magazine style layout, IMO it would have worked better as a standard webpage rather than emulating a printed mag.
For me the benefit of printed media is that it is solid, real, substantial. It is easier to read than pixels on a monitor, but less dynamic. By necessity it is somewhat out of date and static. The flash magazine style does not have this benefit.
Sorry to be negative, but you did ask! :D
 
They even got it in my native language, reading it now..
 
English? No... Cant be in english, if english was your native language you'd butcher it as bad as me... or worse... brittish... ...

Native language = Norse.. Language of the Asguard.
 
I'd like to say, I've never seen an online mag... but yours looks really nice. Good layout as well. I haven't read the content, I'll do that later.

Check out the ad on page 9 guys! Why don't PCGamer have anything like that?
 
Thx for the respons guys!

Will try to write some nice post-apoc stuff in the next issue.
 
Looks very good, a little lacking in content on GTA San Andreas, but there's already so much everywhere else. It's just that it's one of the most anticipated games of the year, and I was hoping I would see some exclusive content.

I absolutely love the classic game covers, and the game over music. :D

I'd think Icelandic is closer to real Norse than anything.
Well, we were pretty close for a while.. Until the Danes came and fuched it all up.
 
Hey, I'm on page 40... middle guy

and page 44 at some point, i owned all of those games.

I love the retro-music page too.

Nice.
 
You owned all the games?!
I just had them, meaning i didnt buy them at the time (late 80s). :)
 
Bonjour Monsieur!


That said, your mag looks a bit overambitious at times. Planning to do it for free?
 
Yes, its free.
Just some ads, and they are already in the mag.
So for the user: free. Always and forever.
 
So you still get paid thanks to the ads? A little like Gamereactor, if you know it.
