Reminiscing about when Game Informer —pre-Gamestop acquisition— was owned by Funcoland and their editor Paul Anderson happily hooked me up with two Sega-CDX consoles (super reasonable price too) and now I can’t find either of them. Pretty sure they were lost during the ZiffDavis days. Bummed.

But Shoe somehow convinced ZiffDavis let us spend that on the cover —and hey, people are still talking about it 25 years later— and so I went back to NYC to give him direction on the cover. He wanted to use gold leaf so we said you do you, and he turned it around fast. The only downside….

Well, "they" being ZiffDavis I'd imagine.

I mean at this point maybe those of us that have been laid off should just start our own site. We could definitely do better than ZiffDavis and management.

IGN Creators Guild @ignunion.bsky.social · 15d

We are tired of posting statements like these.

Today was an awful day at IGN. We were blindsided by the layoff of four union members and many more people across the organization who contributed years of their careers to making IGN an unparalleled voice in games and entertainment.

With each successive layoff, core parts of IGN’s operation continue to be stripped away. Today, IGN has decided to do away with many of our talented producers, editors, hosts, and other crucial roles, both within and out of the union. How many layoffs will occur before we no longer recognize the company we work for and the content that we make?

While we recognize the challenges the media industry is facing as a whole, it is difficult to understand how laying off valuable employees better positions us to meet those challenges. In turn, remaining employees bear additional workloads worsened by anxiety over the ever-looming threat of another layoff.

We are devastated, angry, and heartbroken for our colleagues.

We used to have 6’ blow-ups of these —not sure of the material but they were like plexiglass or something— and I really wanted to take this one home with me when ZiffDavis closed its San Francisco office. But there was no way to transport it. One if my favorite covers.

Moving the Director of gamesindustry.biz job to California - the games hub with the highest layoff rate on the planet - sure is symbolic storytelling for the 2024 season finale of Video Games. jobs.jobvite.com/ziffdavis/jo...

for a second I thought this was another ZiffDavis Property but I think it's Future Plc which in some ways is worse
