And this ain't your daddy's magazine, nor is it even your tech-savvy cousin's web blog. Not content to letmortals like usmerely read its news, the Digital Mag's got pages of interactive content beyond what your puny internet could previously muster.
You'll find a high resolution trailer, early gameplay walkthrough, a point-by-point glimpse of the inimitable "Big Daddy" Bouncer Bot (pictured), and Irrational Co-Founder, Ken Levine conjures the skinny on everything from System Shock to Freedom Force in a candid interview. (Cursing!)

*Note to self: Quickly patent the word "E-ssue." Use royalties to seize control of the Future's publishing empire, focus exclusively on Pokemon, ice cream and Wrestling. Then: control the world...
