It is more current like ign. They often get news first because they are affiliated with GameStop. They have videos and things the print magazine doesn't have. Of course you get the articles and editorials like the print edition. You can also go back I think 10 months and read back issues so you can read reviews for games if you are curious about a title you missed. Obviously you could just look up the metacritic score but sometimes I fins it useful to see what someone actually said about a game rather than just look at it as an 8.5.
