Gboff! It all makes sense now! I too, am a fan. Maybe I should get to reading your fancy mag now...  _________________

Although I signed up here years ago I've been a long time lurker and was wondering if the mag had been spruiked here yet. It has. Well done chaps. _________________ PIXELHUNT - It gets you chicks

So I hope *someone* is cooking up something for this competition. Literally millions of dollars were spent producing those games we have up for grabs!

Yes, I gotta say that if you even make a token effort and send us an email you're in with a pretty good chance, judging from the tumbleweed blowing past my inbox.
Obviously, people don't want to win cool games
Or, this could be a dastardly plot by me to try and get more people to pimp the zine... mwahahahaha!

I keep forgetting to download it. I don't want to download it at work and get in trouble...
I'll set a reminder to download it while I'm home.

Segax, pretty damn awesome - but does it actually reach people? Anyway, fire me an email to be in the running.

Kudos for making a html version. I know its a pain to have to do things like that making multiple versions, but as one of the many aussies too screwed by telstra to get broadband out here, thanks. _________________

Bump,
Issue 3 should be hitting July 30 or so, to coincide with the review embargo on one of the games therein expiring, so I thought I better get some early pimping in. There's something like 16 reviews, a hands-on with Fallout 3 (oh, the horrible irony!), opinion pieces, previews, the whole shebang. So if you like games, words about the aforementioned activity, Simpsons references and a whole bunch of crazy crap on the walls, get excited. Also, download Issue 2 a few more times. Print it out and stick it up around the place. Enter the competition, even.
Over the coming issues we have some cool stuff lined up. Developers have taken a genuine shine to Issue 2 and we're hoping to push this even further with the third issue.

just a had a look at the second issue and the newdesign is a remarkable step up from the previous issue. although something in the design just feels a little bit of refining, but nothing major.
Definitely in the right direction though. Ill have a look into this competition too which could add a game to my meager 360 collection. now its time to put my brain to work. _________________

Thanks mate, I got your email too.
Issue 3 is finished - we're kind of stymied, however, by a cantankerous ISP that won't give our host access to load the thing up. We're hoping to get it up tonight, if not tomorrow.

Issue 3 is LIVE!
This month we've got a hands-on with Fallout 3 (pre-ban), a bunch of reviews, opinion pieces, all the bells and whistles.
Download it then subscribe, why not?

Hey, been printing off the mag, stapling it together and reading it. Good job so far! The quality of the issues seem to be getting better and better, both the articles and the spreadout.
Keep up the good work! _________________

I was going to rage at the 'Just A Game' article, based on the cover, but having read it, it wasn't too bad.

Looking forward to more feedback on this issue. Please tell your mates about the zine. Also, I'm trying to round up a nice game to use as a prize for subscribing to the zine - all current and future subs (for Issue 4) will be eligible, so don't forget to sign up.

Okay, the first subs competition is up on the site - you could win a copy of Too Human. I would say tell all your mates about it, but the thought of lessening your chances probably doesn't appeal to you

Thanks for that mate, looks like a slight problem. Try again in a little bit. You need the confirmation email to... well, to confirm that we got your sub. Cheers.

OK guys, regarding subscriptions.
Did you receive an email saying you had subscribed to the Pixel Hunt Mailing List just now, even though you did ages ago?
DO NOT BE ALARMED! We have just moved to a new subscriber database, and your emails have all been transferred to the new system. Hoorah!
However, if you have not received one of these emails, something has gone wrong, meaning you'll have to subscribe again. Go here to do that.
All understood? Awesome! Keep enjoying Pixel Hunt.
