GameSide Network has debuted its a free online magazine that focuses on the beauty of video games and features artwork from the gaming community.
The Art of Gaming magazine takes a look at video games of the past, present, and future that are or were visually impressive whether they were bit mapped or polygonal. The magazine details the beauty of the games from the aspect of character design, conceptual art, and more. Also worth noting is that the Art of Gaming magazine features artwork created by gamers as well as questions and comments submitted by
gamers.
This free magazine will also contain reviews of classic games, gamer profiles, and features tutorials on how to create graphics similar to those used in the video games. The premiere issue will feature art based on the cult classic, Metal Slug, which had impressive graphical content for its time. The upcoming issue will feature art based on the insanely popular MMORPG game, World of Warcraft.

We're also excited at the opportunity to showcase artwork by the gaming community says GameSide Network's CEO, Lachelle Talbot-Thomas.
