Hsu's old-school Ziff, been there nearly 10 years. had a stint with gamers.com in the 98-99 era but otherwise an old school Ziff fool

he was the highest ranking guy in the editorial department since Davidson left to start http://www.whattheyplay.com/

who?

Don't act like you don't know. You're too hardcore to make the joke work, Demi. Don't you have a free EGM subscription until...like 2050?

Bloodwake · « **Reply #10 on:** April 11, 2008, 05:15:35 PM »

Well, Mielke took over EGM according to the last issue, so I saw this shit coming.

damn, I was hoping for Electronic Shaneing Monthly

Rman · « **Reply #12 on:** April 11, 2008, 05:18:20 PM »

But Shoe was promoted to Editorial Director, Jon Davison's former position, a while ago. He had worked both roles until Mielke was promoted to EIC of EGM.

I give you my honest to God word I do not have any form of free subscription to any magazine

LOL at his planned activities now that he's got some free time.

Get all Achievements in Burnout Paradise

Get all Achievements in Marvel: Ultimate Alliance

Finish veteran Mile High Club in Call of Duty 4 (for an Achievement)

Get all Achievements in Grand Theft Auto 4

Finish Patapon

Finish Pixel Junk Monsters

Finish the 100-coin purple comet level on 2D Luigi level in Mario Galaxy

Play Company of Heroes

Finish Sins of a Solar Empire

Maybe try World of WarCraft? That may be a bad idea...then my daily to-do list might only consist of one item....

Crushed · « **Reply #15 on:** April 11, 2008, 05:24:07 PM »

So Shane and Mielke are the only "old-school" guys still left at EGM, right? Or am I missing some people? I remember the major ones who are gone (Che, Mark McDonald, Jon, That Canadian Dude Who Loved Chrono Cross...)

Still, smh at the GAF thread. Killzone/MGS4 avatars swarming around proclaiming the death of Halo and Microsoft. Evilore actually posted a screenshot of half of Shoe's A+ review of Gears of War with everything negative highlighted, as if to say that the A+ was moneyhat. Jesus Christ, the thread is overrun by Sony Cronies insulting one of the names synonymous with "EGM" and he fuels the flames. WTF.

EDIT: Forgot, Crispin's still left.

So he quit so he could play more video games? LOL

I thought you had a free sub, Demi? I wasn't being testy. It was all in jest, dude.

demi · « **Reply #19 on:** April 11, 2008, 05:29:52 PM »

The only sub I have is Game Informer, for the Edge Card, which itself is useless

Evilbore has better exclusives than EGM anyway.

6 figures.

the magazine has sucked for the last 5 years or so with Hsu in charge, but I've been reading EGM for a while.

Him and Crispin were one of the last remaining guys from the good old days in Chicago.

muckson · « **Reply #28 on:** April 12, 2008, 01:34:35 PM »

i thought hsu was going to be in charge of 1up or some other branch of gaming magazines. i'm confused.
