    Dev.Mag Changed their format!

    Wow, I wouldn't have called it in a million years. It seems that Dev.Mag, a well known publication that was pretty Pascal/PGD friendly, has gone from a free online downloadable PDF format to a fully online html only format.

    I must say that I'm not 100% comfortable with this change as they removed all their back issues and content.

    It seems like a huge step back indeed. They say they're going to add the older articles to the archives. It's going to be a huge load of work, no doubt about that. I do wonder if they realize that.

    Any reason to assume that they aren't Pascal/PGD friendly anymore?

    Fortunatly their content seems to be available for free, and that's what matters most.

    Oh I'm sure they still are, it's just that I've not been in contact or following issues for about a year now.

    Hey they put their old PDF issues back online! Yay!

    But I guess the day of them releasing monthly issues that could be printed out are gone. Oh well at least you guys will have Pascal Gamer magazine
