Game informer isn't terrible, they have a lot of dev interviews which are fun to read and their reviews have mostly stood up well.

There's a lot of UK based gaming magazines and just reading them a little bit reminds you how that entire island is full of absolute perverts.

Kinda an obscure request, trying to find the Nintendo Power contest for Automobili Lamborghini where 2nd prize was a leather jacket. I think it might have been around issue 103 but not sure.
