Anyone knows how, and who, to contact at Blitz magazine for this sort of question?
Their website has only customer service email for subscription, and something to do with a body challenge thing......

Decaf? meh, real coffee's the thing for me..! and with...

Jack Thompson is an idiot half-lawyer trying to gut his way out of the sewers that his life has become by picking on the video game industry (so much love here you can almost physically feel it,...
Wouldn't the heart of Budo lie in the concept of the Bu, the Martial values, while everything around serve as a way to achieve a Feudal-Militaristic unit?
