Dear friends! We remind you that we recently resumed recording podcasts. You can watch new episodes in video format on the YouTube channel GameMAG.ru… Podcast hosts – our authors and editors Azamat Tegaev (Azzy) and Alexander Kopanev (Shibito). They talk about topics common to the gaming industry, so many issues do not lose their relevance over time.
