    They were getting lame in recent years. I won't miss GamePro one bit.

    As someone who doesn't read GamePro, but is studying journalism, I can't disagree with you more. GamePro was an important part of gaming journalism and it is very sad to see it go, especially since it won't continue in a digital form, either.

    Gaming journalism won't die. There are lots of good gaming magazines out there. GamePro just isn't one of them

    Never said it would. I was simply expressing sadness that an important magazine was shutting down so suddenly without much of a legacy.

    I bought their Winter issue last week and I hated it. It was full of childish jokes and uninteresting articles. They were alright during the 90's, but they're terrible now.
