Sorry, I haven't read EGM in years. I only own three issues of EGM, actually, and they are from 1996... and all the games reviewed each get a third of a page (vertical column), with 4 very brief reviews. I have read some issues since then, and noticed they went to 3 reviewers and one review was lengthened so that it could have more detail (maybe even half a page, not sure about that), but I don't think I remember EGM reviews that gave a full page to a game... and with three reviews splitting that space it makes each even shorter.
But it is true they do have more games to review. They only review what, 15 or 20 games an issue?
But of course in PC magazines the reviews are the centerpoint of the magazine... they take up by far the largest percentage of pages and are the middle section of the magazine. Unlike some console mags...
