I bought my first copy of Edge around issue 3 or 4 in a Virgin Megastore, and kept up the purchases despite being a poor student, unemployed etc because the quality of writing was always top notch. After moving out of the UK, I tried to keep up a really expensive subscription for quite a few years, but it was always taking well over a month between the release of an issue to when I'd receive my mangled copy - usually the next issue would be out before I got the last one.
Last time I was in the UK, I picked up a copy in Smiths and scanned through it, but even with my new reading glasses, the text had become impossibly small for me to read, which was really annoying. Still has fantastic layout, features and great insight, but my physical magazine reading days are behind me.
