Simmer down, old chap: that's only Division 1 Online/Offline.

There's no greater pink 'n' blue advocate in these waters than I, but not like this. Not trend-wimpery 'neath the management stairs. Please have your art man watch Manhunter. Ta.

Just flicked through my first ever subscription copy. Quite glad I didn't have to buy at a supermarket with that homo erotic cover.

I kinda liked the look of Never Dead and liked the Rogue Trooper game Rebellion did (so they are capable), and I like the art-style. Defintely Love Filming.

I'm surprised that took so long.. some one always thinks the cover is awful.

Loving the pink themes in the new edge. Very halo, all around win. I've come to appreciate the colour in time. donning pink shirts and pink ties- never at the same time although I did once wear matching panties. Also, on an unrelated note, I've unexpectedly started sucking dick.

Unexpected by you, maybe.

Unity competition web address as given in the magazine (www.edge-online.com/unity-competition) does not work. :(

We have to wait until March 6 or so when the comp goes live, do we?!

Remember the days when a new issue thread would get hundreds of replies?

Yep, mostly involved in the same argument about review scores every month.

Now we've already seen them online.

All full of people saying "Another issue I'm glad I'm not buying."

These days, a new issue popping through the door serves as a reminder to get a wriggle on with the previous one, more so than before. I'm not finding the format as reader friendly as before, the sections seemed more concisely ordered and laid out, now it's just a clusterfuck of type sizes, grids, columns here, columns there, irritating pictures that break up copy, etc. The quality of content is there, but it's not coming across as efficiently in this format, strip a lot of the shit back, title, image and body copy first.

I cancelled my sub before the update. I've had a quick flick in a newsagents and I really dislike the new Edge.

My girlfriend got me a subscription for Christmas. I still like the content, but some design stuff is just plain irritating. The Vita feature for example, I don't know why they felt the need for diagonal text. It looks shit.

I still find the previews in the hype section the best reason to buy the mag. The XCOM one brought the game to my attention and made it a must buy for me. The reviews are out too late to use as a buying guide, to be honest I don't get influenced by reviews anyway as I know if I'm going to buy a game or not before it's released. An Edge [10] hasn't seen me rush out to buy Zelda and a [6] won't stop me buying Kingdom of Amalur: Reckoning.

I honestly couldn't give a fuck what someone else thinks of a game, I know my own tastes and the reviewer doesn't so I'll stick to my instincts which haven't let me down so far.

If you're enough of a nonce to keep old issues for reference, the difference in cleanliness is stark. Fatter fonts are a plus for ageing eyes, mind.

Oh, and the score mans are on RLLL. They used to be us, after all; before us.
