I was invited to the book launch but couldn't make it. There was supposed to have been lots of freebies and Playstations set up with all the featured games running. Plus loads of booze... oh well. I get the following on subscription: Edge, MacWorld and MacUser. Buy Empire and Neon from time to time. Can't really see the point of another games magazine. If Arcade is a cross between Edge and Empire, and is published by the same company who do both, it's a bit of a waste of time - surely they'll just be covering the same stuff (by the same writers no doubt) Phil
