I have a friend (writes for RPGFan) who wants to eventually create a magazine devoted entirely to the RPG genre. He would do as other magazines do...providing reviews, previews, columns, contests, and free RPG company stuff with a subscription. Also, like many other magazines, the web site would follow (to a degree) the magazine, leaving the two to play off of each other when offering special content.

He asked me to find a few large audiences to poll if they would pay for a subscription to a magazine like this.. so please answer :)

EDIT: This would be a video game magazine. Not pen and paper games, sorry about that

It would cover all types of RPGs. Unfortunately magazines like IGN, etc. have writers that have a broad range of games. With this magazine, they would attempt to cover most/all games within the RPG genre. Since PC RPGs are very under-represented, the magazine would focus on them as well.

EDIT: To clarify, I mean Video Game RPGs, not pen and paper games

Nope, the reviewers at Computer Gaming World know their RPGs and with CGW I get good coverage of all game genres plus a shiny CD to save on downloading hassles.
