Games Magazines

Hey,

Just wondering if there are any Irish Computer Games Magazines out there or are they all the UK based magazines and also, what are the best media outlets for reviews of games and that kind of thing in Ireland?

Thanks!!

Pat

Just read Eurogamer.net.

And Kotaku.com is good when you're stuck in work.

Yes, the Internet is your friend.

Check out this Wikipedia article as well.

edge magazine every month is good, but for day-to-day stuff eurogamer and kotaku are my favourites, along with 1up, next-gen and the games section of digg

Thanks for that guys, I'm more trying to find out about purely Irish media though, is there any Irish owned and based Magazines or any other Irish media for Gamers?

No there are none. Several haved tried and failed in the past to capture the Irish gaming market - the Official Irish Playstation Magazine among others - but the problem is that the market here is too small. There's really nothing an Irish magazine can do to disdinguise itself from the bigger and more well reknowned magazines.

I think the problem there was that it was by far the worst videogame magazine ever produced. What absolute thrash.
