WHAT IS GAMING INSURRECTION?
We are a small video game publication based in Columbia, S.C. While we focus on retro games, our love is really for digital entertainment, whether it be manga, anime, comics or gaming.
Gaming Insurrection began in 2002 in Editor-in-Chief Lyndsey Beatty's kitchen as a side project to sharpen her print journalism skills while in college. After a six-year hiatus, GI was restarted and enhanced with a redesign and addition of staff.
Gaming Insurrection produces a PDF version of the magazine as well as the occasional video and podcasts for mass consumption.

CONTACT INFORMATION & POLICIES
The summer heat is here and, since we at GI are not heat-inclined people, we are staying cool and digging into retro fighting games.
I've always loved Capcom's Versus series, mostly because it featured cool Capcom characters like Strider and my favorite uncanny mutants, but I was never seriously good at them. I enjoyed watching high-level play in Marvel vs. Capcom and Marvel vs. Capcom 2 - and still do - but I gave up the ghost of involvement in the competitive fighting game scene right at the dawn of modern Evo. That doesn't mean that I don't still love Marvel vs. Capcom.
In this issue we're looking at the eponymous game and its fellow titles and breaking down what we love about the games and their quirks. If Marvel has taught me anything, it's that fighting games can be incredibly layered and fun.
And remember, knowing how to do infinites and dominate in MvC2 is fun and all but there is never a wrong time to go outside and touch grass.
Enjoy the issue!
