Or you know you could just visit the gameinformer website :shrug:

I'm sure they'll be posting information and screenshots as well

I'm fairly sure they wont update their website the same day people recieve the magazine though.

It's better than not getting the information at all though

[abi]

At what time will it be in stores? 1st of februrary?

[Lavender Brown]

I just realised that this will just be a cover and it won't be another week until we get actual information and screenshots :sadvaultboy:

But in the post you replied to I already said he could just wait a little longer.. so yea. Also everybody actually get the magazine better let us know every single detail ^^

[Tiffany Holmes]

Even Better, THIS WEEK! (Give or take a few days)

[LADONA]

Even Better, THIS WEEK! (Give or take a few days)

thought it was next week?

[Tessa Mullins]

Who told you that? There will definitely be screenshots and game information for your viewing pleasure in the next mag on January 6th. No worries

Edit: I missed the part where you said "another week" haha. Maybe if you wait for the magazine itself, yes, but information from the mag will no doubt be somewhere on the internet tomorrow...

Game Informer seem like a right horrible bunch. I read that RPS article last night and while it was a light hearted dig at the idea exclusivity and gameinformers rather antiquated concept of information control it was very much giving the credit to them and directing readers to their site. Their reaction is just childish, nasty and indicitive of how out of touch they are.

What's more it shows how much stock they put in being the only people with the access which, imo, makes anything they write utterly untrustworthy. If they are prostituing themselves for exclusive rights what is the price? It certainly isn't objectivity. Kinda makes all this "blow your mind" stuff rather suspect if they're just an extension of the PR team.

I don't want to turn this into an argument about Game Informer, but I will say this: they're a business. Like all businesses, they have to protect their assets. Regardless of what the context of that RPS article was, the fact is they had cropped Game Informer's watermark out of their screenshots and posted them to the RPS site, infringing on Game Informer's property. As a business, there can be no exceptions when it comes to protecting your assets. You let one thing slide without proper rights management, then others will argue that they should be given the same privilege - and you won't be able to hold up in a court because you didn't defend the initial infringement.

It doesn't make them nasty, it makes them a business. Is it harsh? Yeah, sometimes. But it's necessary if they want to continue to offer exclusive content to their readers. You may not care about that (most people don't), but they certainly do - and they're well within their rights to protect what's theirs.

If it makes you question their credibility as a press outlet, that's certainly a fair conclusion to come to, and I won't challenge you there - but keep in mind that, regardless of whether or not they're considered "fair", they're still offering content no other outlet is. And that'll keep people subscribing.

I'm confused. (sorry for stupid question) but, is tommarrow just a reveal of the Cover or is the Magazine being shipped?....or both?

No worries.

Tomorrow, three things will happen: one, the cover will be revealed around 9-12PST (based on previous reveal times, anyway); two, some as-of-yet-undisclosed "online stuff" will go up; and three, the full magazine will be shipped out to subscribers, to arrive late this week or early next week. Though, based on past GI cover reveals etc, there's always one person who manages to get their hands on an issue earlier than normal, so we might be able to expect some info (possibly scans, somewhere - not here of course ) tomorrow or Friday.

It's both. But it won't be in stores till I think a couple weeks after.

[LuCY sCoTT]

Man, we are getting repetitive

Ill probably be online all day, just incase we get a big tweet saying "Midnight Release for the Cover!"

I doubt it but still lol

[Flash]

Wish we could buy an online PDF file of the magazine so we wouldn't have to A: wait for it in stores or B: wait for it to ship to people's homes xD

Exactly D;

My gamestop asked my brother when he received his power up rewards card if he wanted his GI online or through the mail, so If you get it online when is it released to you...anyone know?

[Racheal Robertson]

I am getting abnormally excited for this cover reveal. Like giddier than I've ever been.
All these rumours and tweets flying around are making me too excitable, and, as I live in the UK, I'll be searching the interwebs high and low from now onwards looking for any info on Skyrim.

Too bad I live in the UK, have to wait for another magazine to run their feature on Skyrim, probably won't have to wait too long. Not gonna stop me looking (and most likely druelling) at anything GI related *drool*

[Mimi BC]

Seconded. I don't wanna subscribe to GI, but I would seriously spend around $40 for this issue alone.

[Lauren Denman]

Both are true, and if you want to see all the stuff, pics, articles and such tomorrow, just go to game informer website it should publish it all on their website, and the Feb edition is being mailed out right now to many lucky people who will have a copy by tomorrow, but since they have so many subscribers they dont send them all out at once, this week and next will see every1 getting their magazine, actually not many will get it in mail tomorrow most in mail now be going direct to like game stop and such. I do not know this for certain people but I do believe it to be the case.

[James Baldwin]

45 people are reading this topic, you know people are getting excited about it.

I'm going to call tommorow to see if they have it in the stores yet, but I'm sure it'll be next week earliest before they put it on their shelves.

What about this? Andrew Reiner's tweet:

"Take your best guess as to what Bethesda has been working on. I’m curious what you expect." followed by, "In addition to Skyrim, this issue holds an unannounced sequel. Guess away!”

That unnanounced sequel is confirmed to NOT be a Bethesda game. I'm not sure but I think the first quote is a joke.

You may not care about that (most people don't), but they certainly do - and they're well within their rights to protect what's theirs.

Offering exclusive content to their readers is also how they pay the employees who create the content. Most of us would react badly if our employers informed us that they couldn't pay us this month because they'd decided to make our work available for free.

If it would be, which I really doubt, it would be like.. Fallout 4? Bethesda Game Studios didn't work on Fallout NV... so maybe after Fallout 3, a small group started working on Fallout 4 and a big group on Skyrim?
Still, I really doubt it.

Yup, pretty much. But as much as I want Fallout 4, I would like to see Bethesda trying a new IP.
