Default Magazine subscription suggestions?

I've subscribed to the Dutch edition of National Geographic Magazine for a few years now, but I feel it's time for something else, and I want to get a subscription to a different magazine. I'm wondering if any of you could offer any suggestions? Ideally, I'd be looking for a magazine that covers video games or other aspects of geek culture, and one that isn't crazy expensive for international subscribers. I'm toying with the idea of subscribing to Wired, but I've heard that that contains a lot of ads, or maybe Edge, but that would be about twice as expensive as a Wired subscription for me. Any other ideas?

I was about to post Edge, as I've heard nothing but good things about them. I can't personally say I've read through one of their magazines, but I have flicked in the shops and it looks nicely presented.

WIRED is nice, although it doesn't really cover games. It's crazy expensive (compared to the US) for international subscribers though, but then again, you currently have the dollar price working in your favor.

I'm specifically looking for a physical magazine, for those times when I'm without Internet access and want something to read.

I know it's expensive compared to the US, but at this rate, it's less expensive than my NGM subscription.

Right, I think it's going to go between Wired and Edge. I released some mathematical equations upon them, and it turns out that Edge would be around 7 Euros per issue, and Wired 4 Euros per issue. Now my question to anyone who may know is, do these 3 Euros reflect the difference in quality and quantity (number of pages)?
