Re: Goodbye Game Informer

    - It won't have a print version (well, understandable, given
     the economics of the thing. Still sort of sad to see it
      go, though)
    - Last I heard it won't have the same staff, so it's basically
      just the name being reused

   Last story I saw said there will be a print version, and the original staff as well.  I think you're right to question the motives of the buyer though, just what was the business motivation for this acquisition....
