EGM Founder Reacquires Magazine, Plans Revival
Originally founded in 1989 by Steve Harris, EGM was discontinued by owner Ziff Davis just prior to UGO's January acquisition of the 1UP Network.
Harris is now planning to bring the magazine back in the second half of 2009, promising more announcements on EGM's new website during E3.
"The re-launch of Electronic Gaming Monthly represents a welcome opportunity to continue delivering quality content to gaming enthusiasts," said Harris in a release. "I feel honored to once again be associated with this respected magazine. The talented writers and designers who built upon EGM's original vision have left behind a publication that is uniquely positioned to be successful."

Cool news - hopefully this iteration they actually cover ALL "Electronic Gaming" not just consoles. ;)
