The magazine might have ran a few more ads in that issue to balance the costs.

It's not really unusual - Polish gaming mags do it all the time, with between 2 and 4 full games per issue on a regular basis.
cool! I didn't know that. I haven't really noticed if we still do that around here lately since it's been a while that I didn't buy any of those magazines - they became very expensive here and we have the internet to tell us things now.
I loved that game tough. and it was all tranlated in Portuguese in a very good translation. They adapted the jokes and everything. It was a very funny game. Since I read this thread I'm trying to find where I put it... I hope I find it.

Thanks for the explanation :amused:
