Feature: Time Capsule - incite PC Gaming, Issue 2

incite PC Gaming had a rather short run as a magazine. It seems that the magazine folded after a mere 6 issues, but with covers like the one found on issue 2 (January 2000) is it any wonder?

First, notice the price. $3.99 in Canada, $2.99 in the US. That was cheap for a magazine, even in 2000. Most comic books cost more than that. All evidence suggests that the magazine was being sold at a loss in order to appear more attractive on news stands. I know that's why I picked up this issue. The price was certainly more attractive than the cover model, Victoria Silvstedt.
