Hey guys I always been buying Gameaxis magazine as for my gaming news and updates.
But if not mistaken I think Gameaxis has stopped writing or bankrupted ??
Is there any other  good magazines out there ?? PC Gamer is rather lousy though , ironically Im specifically looking for PC games only magazine instead of mix like Gameaxis

If you want paper based magazines and have an tablet, try PC Powerplay.

PCPP is pretty damn good. Honest reviews and some pretty decent coverage.

I don't own a smartphone nor tablet. Im a shut in , so I use PC most the time I won't need those kind of stuffs.
Besides If I dump load of cash on my PC , why I even buy those kind of things , which I only be using them when Im outdoors. Also if I dump load of cash on my PC , why would I even be outdoors , that's definitely wasting money how people claim that dumping money on PC.

If you gonna be so picky, then, there isnt much I can help you as i think the only decent and fair publication these days is PCPP.

Tablets and smart phones has its own usefulness and they arent just meant to be used outdoors. I have both which I find them useful in different occasion so if you like to sit on your high horse, then, it is up to you then. And it is unbelievable that you can survive these days without a smart phone.

Even an overpriced iPad will last you years while a lot of Android based tablet are reasonably priced to begin. Tablets are amazing for reading in general while certain genre of games works amazingly on it than PC. You wont be able to find printed copies of PCPP in Malaysia.

LoL , everyone told me that and asked me the same thing

" Dude how you even survive without a smartphone these days "

Well , I can , but without my PC for just one day I definitely go mad....so I asked them the same thing how you even
withstand a day without a high end PC or even play simple games on the smartphone / table for days and hours.

But really like I said, what am I gonna do with a smartphone ? Monday to Saturday , I work from 8:30 to 5:00, right after work , I go straight back home, so I have my PC. On Sundays I stay home , since like I said Im a Shut In.
What people calls " Otaku " maybe you will understand it as in Japanese.
If you say you can't survive in this century without a Cell Phone , I truly agree..but Smartphone no way....

Different people have different taste dude , don't judge. Im not " Mainstream " but Im happy.
But I've guess my luck is out for finding another game magazine on Malaysia. But Tks for the help.

Smart phones and tablets arent just for simple games as there are tonnes of quality PC games are being ported there. It is not just a crappy F2P machine while, as i said, it is a great device for ebooks reading and web browsing. If you are going to be a hermit and closed minded, then so be it but having a smart phone or tablet isnt really mainstream these days due to variety of uses. It can be necessity these days as I rely it as a news reader because it does a far better job than a PC.

You aint gonna find another reasonably priced physical gaming magazine in Malaysia.

Since internet became popular these days, people won't be bothered to spend money on magazines.

I still do as some magazines does extremely cheap digital subscription while a lot of magazines are transitioning to digital publications.

Tempted to subscribe Maximum PC from Zinio as i'll be paying 0.85USD per issue.
