Can anyone tell me why in the "A Beginner's Guide to Flight Sims" section, for 3 different games they have the same 3 helicopter picture's? Page 44, 46, and 48 at the bottom. What's up with these shananigans?

Heh, you're right, didnt notice that before.

Stopped my PC gamer subscription after I realized that all the information that they contained was 99% of the time available online, and that I was building up quite a stockpile of paper that probably wouldn't get recycled...

They used to do stuff like this all the time, though. Trying to cut corners, I guess.

I get mine from my dad's GF so doesn't bother me too much. I also get Maxim and Stuff courtesy of TFP free too. :P

I think its just a photo 'typo'. Happens in all magazines occasionally. I like PC Gamer a lot, but I stopped my subscription. I usually buy it at the newstand if it has something I'm interested in it that month. They do seem to get a lot of sneak peaks and early reviews, like with Doom 3 and Half-Life 2 (full review in the upcoming issue).
