When word got out that the former owner of Electronic Gaming Monthly, Steve Harris, had bought back the rights to the long running print magazine from Ziff Davis (the company shut down the mag last December), folks wondered who else might be involved in the mag's relaunch. As it turns out, Harris has done the expected and brought back two members of the magazine's former editorial staff to join the new version.
This week, EGM announced that the magazine's former Editor-in-Chief Dan Hsu and its Reviews Editor Demian Linn will be participating in its relaunch, which will include a print magazine, a web site and what they are calling a "digital magazine". According to the press release the duo will be "overseeing the reporting and writing of news and other content" for the EGM relaunch. Hsu and Linn are currently the co-founders of the gaming web site Bitmob.com but their new site will be sticking around even as the two work on the new EGM. There's still no word on when we can expect to read the first issue.
