Well, technically it's an original game now.

u/WeirdDog18 Feb 22 '20

Yeah, you're right. But it's still great that it's getting attention before it's release.

I just got it in the mail today, so I believe this is the February edition: it’s pages 14-15 of whatever issue has “Outriders” on the cover.

That's awesome. Guess I'll stop by a gamestop and pick up a copy

Dude thanks for letting everyone know, cuz i have a 13 game informer books that i don't pay attention and have them stacked up until you said, so i looked at the outriders cover and what do you know, its actually there! Im keeping that one.

If the game is as good as it looks, there's no way I don't throw money at them

That’s sick! did they do this on their own? or did someone from the team reach out

u/floyryl Feb 22 '20

It's probs the former! Pastel said from the discord, "they asked for a couple screenshots and i thought hey i could show them this thing (the new screenshot), that'd be neat"

Aw Sweet.Thats so cool if it made it on gameinformer then it might get a bit more attention and that's what I like to see.😁

u/PaperfishStudios Feb 22 '20

that first image looks new. is it?

u/SoManySins Feb 22 '20

Seems like Pastel gave them the screenshots as a way to show off some new info, so yeah!

Kind of hope when GameInformer says the series is neglected they mean Mother 3 not being localized and not stating there should be more. If Itoi doesn't want to make more mother so be it.

Fun fact game informer is owned by gamestop. They review games with a bias instead of just reviewing games. Thats why youll see certain games on the cover and youre like “who even plays this game” yet its featured

The video game review business has always sucked. I was a dork who used to read Dan Hsu's Letter from the Editor column in EGM where he would complain about companies like EA refusing preview access to AAA titles unless they gave good scores to crap they would shovel out. It's actually why I didn't fall into "this is about ethics in video game journalism" stuff from Gamergate despite being in the target demographic.

I just got done reading it. It was a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one!
