Overheard@E3: 'You guys did a cover for us, right?'

Maybe you and the magazine could do swapsies.

If they make more money than you or have more favour in the industry then you could take advantage of the similarity. For instance that cover, say they didn't pay you yet, demand the cheque now, and then go and celebrate.

Sacre bleu! Nous ne sommes pas le Joystick! Merde!

Joystick was also a US magazine in the early 80's. Only 3 episodes were published but were great. It included a writeup for the first Space Wars game with pictures from the 60's and talked about the wooden joystick. They also had an article on Intellivision and there concept for DL content which was eerily like Live but never saw the light of day.
Alas the magazine is nothing but a footnote in gaming history.

I hate to be THAT GUY, but Ludwig, your use of commas in this (and nearly every other post you make) is horribly wrong. You write, "A sincere question coming from the developers of acrobatic Gears of Civil War shooter, Damnation, once again brings us in direct competition with longtime Joystiq nemesis and mistaken alternate identity, Joystick Magazine."

Those commas before and after "Damnation" and before "Joystick" are unnecessary and incorrect. Commas of separation don't apply here; your usage implies that the statements set off by commas could be excised from the sentence. They can't.

Hi Guys from Joystiq !
I'm working for Joystick in France and I can tell you it happen almost everytime that somebody (from the US)think that qwe're from Joystiq... :)

I guess now you have done a cover for Damnation, in a way.

I'm french and I used to buy the joystick magazine way before I had internet at home. They had fun demo cds.
