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. :no:

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! :D

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 ;)
