    It really starts to look like the age of gaming magazines is ending. I mean, it is hard to imagine that nearly any of these magazines is profitable and/or worth invested money (for the publisher, that is).

    All magazine/newspaper circulations are feeling the real power of the interweb this year - more than ever before. It's hit ad revenues, circulations really hard and is something that will inevitably continue.

    Mind, Future's 360 & Nintendo mags are doing well.

    Wonder what happened to the figures for Official PS3 mag ....

      Holy moly, 10% down for Edge is pretty serious stuff.

      I see the single format mags are doing quite well however whereas multiplatform ones tend to be in decline. I put this down to covermounts and demo discs more than anything, especially for the Official Nintendo Magazine (some of the freebies cost more than the magazine at retail ).

      Perhaps they're using the same excuse as Imagine is using for GamesTM and saying they'll only release yearly figures, as six monthly figures show too many 'fluctuations'?

        Your right, monthly's only have to give 12 monthly ABC's, but weeklies must give 6 monthly figures, forgot about that.
