Well members, here's your surprise.
It's small, it's new, but it's a magazine. :)
I think it'll be able to explain itself, that and I'm way too tired.
The magazine will be getting it's own page tomorrow, but is available for download here:

Thanks, and I hope you like it!

That was entertaining. I was following E3 from my computer while it was happening so that part of the magazine was old news to me but the rest of it was fun. Although Aisha did call Techno Motion a member of the Bemani family, which is wrong. Or is it?

I think your right Allen, but I've only played it once, Although it didnt look as well done to me as other Bemani games

I'm glad you liked it Allen! There was a hell of a lot of work and editing that was put into it. I know Blaise liked it because he did an article for it. But hopefully we can at least double the articles in next month's issue, and we could always use more writers and artists as well. :)

actually, you should all thank bryan for bringing this out. :] it's not a necessary feature, not a common thing for a web/forum master to get together, he did it all as another way to entertain you guys and keep you all happy with something new and interesting.

he put some really hard work into this, he stayed up late every night, he worked on it in the morning before he had to leave for work at 9am, and he didn't release it until he felt it was good enough. and it's not only this magazine, he's put so much hard work into all of this that we have now. and it's not like he's getting payed or anything, he's just happy to be able to be such a big part of this community that he loves, and help out where he can.

so i would like to be the first to thank you, hun. :] you're doing an amazing job. even though all your projects give you less time during the day. ;p but i know seeing it go somewhere, and be enjoyed and appreciated makes it worth it for you.

I was AT E3! XD You could've asked me to...I dunno....do something exclusive while I was there!

But anyway, it looks nifty. I like the layout. I haven't had a chance to read the whole thing yet though.

Damn, I completely forgot to ask. :/
Well, E3 is old news now - but you are still welcome to submit something for the coming month. :) If you have any trouble thinking about something do to, just IM me and we'll brainstorm something, you have a lot of time too. :)

i have an idea! it's up to chris if he wants to use it. but this way it's not "old news" and still has to do with an experience at e3...a short story based on his experience at e3! :D it could be mostly true, partially true, totally true...but i think it would be an interesting perspective of e3 for those of us who have never been, and a nice contrast to the usual facts about new releases and features without anything more...personal. chris, you don't have to take it as a request or anything, just a suggestion if you'd like to use your time at e3 as an interesting contribution. ^_^

Hey that's a great idea. :D
What do you think about that Chris?
That'd be great to hear, it's not a direct E3 report, but it's more like the "E3 experience." Now that would be a great article for those readers who don't have the slightest idea about how the whole expo works. Sounds even better as I'm typing this. What would I do without my other half? :froggy:

Everyone good job! Sorry if I said something wrong or other. I guess my research said something faulty. My bad!

Hmmmm....I'm not entirely sure I could make it all that exciting, but if I have time, I could try. How many words would you be looking for?

Well, make it as long as you want, but I guess make it editable. Also, you can use the articles in this month's issue to use as guidance. :]
