Eles Gergo Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 ohh why what happened with it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jod123 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 The articles for issue 4 were complete and proofed, but Chris who does the layouts had a lot of other things going on and no spare time. April and May were going to be combined, but I have heard nothing from Chris or Simon (the editor) since. I briefly considered whether I would take on more of the responsibility, but writing six or seven articles a month, plus proof reading all the articles submitted was more than enough, without taking on extra workload. That is a quote from the March Issue thread. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

aw083 Posted August 26, 2008 Share Posted August 26, 2008 As one of the writers I can add that there has been no email correspondance to me, or to the group of writers in general, since around May. It's a shame as I had some great articles planned, of course my own real life intervened but c'est la vie. If the other writers are still around and want to get it back up and started again, I know I'm game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonfun1980 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I think people should bring it back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larsson1888 Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I think people should bring it back. I'm sure if more people knew about it, it would have been more popular. I never had heard of it until a month ago and they are well class, just a shame it was never kept up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 27, 2008 Share Posted August 27, 2008 I think people should bring it back. It was a great read and extremely well presented. I hope it comes back. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty Hart Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I contacted SI about this a while ago, i used to thoroughly enjoy these magazines. Anyone know where i can pick up some older copies? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ginger Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 I worked on designing and creating the artwork for these - I have been in conversation with some of the co-editors and we are trying to get a forth issue moving - I have worked on a new design and 30+ pages have been sent for approval. Once we get this back we can add to it and look at a release. In the meantime: Issue One - http://downloads.sega-europe.com/fm08/bootroom/The_Bootroom_-_Issue_One.pdf Issue Two - http://downloads.sega-europe.com/fm08/bootroom/The_Bootroom_Issue_2.pdf Issue Three - http://rapidshare.com/files/97961971/The_Bootroom_-_Issue_Three.pdf Issue One is 20mb, but the following issues make 10mb each.

Ginger Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 As the Bootroom, we have nothing to do with SI directly - we asked if we could take on the name after SI's own fanzine died a death. Unfortunately, due to many things (life, work etc), we have struggled to get the forth issue together until now. The new design looks cleaner and smarter but keeps the writing styles and depth.

The Governor Posted August 28, 2008 Share Posted August 28, 2008 Why don't you scrap the magazine idea and make a blog instead? A lot easier to manage, a lot more intuitive and interactive too. I've found this the best, easiest option than continuing to produce publications time and again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
