I've been cleaning out my basement over the past week and I came across some of my old gaming magazines. It reminded me of this old magazine I had but I can't remember the name of it. Maybe one of you guys can point me in the right direction.
I only remember one of the issues. I think it might have been the first issue and it had Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson on the cover. IIRC, it was a feature on a WWF game for the Nintendo 64. I remember reviews for PS1 games too, possibly the Saturn. The cover was mostly white. I think I had three or four issues and I don't believe the magazine lasted for a long period of time.
Would like to know what it was out of pure curiosity.

Ah you beat me to it! Yes, Incite Magazine. I thought it was a pretty cool magazine.

I have all issues of this magazine. Both the PC and console variants. It was pretty damn nice for what it was, too bad it only lasted seven issues.

I remember back in the late 90s/early 00s reading a magazine that had a short blurb that had details about Final Fantasy X, XI, and XII, I don't think it was more than 1/4 of a page near the front of the issue. I'm curious if it was this one.
The only reason(s) it was memorable to me was that a) Square was developing/planning 3 different Final Fantasy games at the same time, b) That Final Fantasy XI was going to be an online game (eww!), and c) that they actually let out details about all three of them at the same time.

I have a couple of issues of the magazine. It was pretty much Maxim for gamers.

I only ever saw two issues of this magazine, but I thoroughly enjoyed it. Articles and, ahem, everything else. I am just amazed that it was published by IDG (Game Pro) and was actually a decent magazine.

And yet, I thought it was much better than most other magazines I'd seen. Babes aside.
