I get EGM and Game Informer... both free subs, but neither have made it to my door yet. Anyone get theirs yet?

When do they usually hit the newsstands? I haven't bought/subscribed to a gaming magazine in 10 years but I saw the February Official Xbox Magazine is supposed to have three exclusive Rock Band tracks in it.

I'm *guessing* they normally hit about a week prior to the month they cover, because thats when I usually get mine but I could be wrong.

I always get my GI around the middle of the month. I did have a free EGM sub for about 3 years, but I let it run out. The past 2 or 3 times that I've caught a free sub signup in the hot deals forum, I've never gotten any issues sent to me. I guess they don't like me anymore :(.

Got mine already a few days ago. But to be honest with you after reading magazines like Wired this free magazine EGM sucks. The writing sucks, content is okay but I guess it is okay considering it's free.

I was hoping that with you guys getting your EGMs over the past couple days, I would have gotten mine yesterday.... alas, I did not. :(

I got my EGM yesterday, but it was for MARCH not Feb. I'll have to go back and look at the last issue to see if it was a combo Jan/Feb issue.

My free subscription to EGM ran out, but I just got my Games for Windows magazine (also free) earlier this week. It's the March edition.

Modeps, aren't gaming magazines usually listed for the month ahead of when they come out. I.e. in February you get March's issue.

I never got my SSBB EGM issue :(

I still haven't completely recovered from the sorrow.
