Haven't bought a copy of EGM in a long time, but this is so sad.

I AM SO BUMMED ABOUT LOSING MY 1UP SHOW

The 1up show people sound like they're trying to go independent. Apparently their first new show will be going online next friday... see http://talkingorange.com/

Also it sounds like 1up is less dead than initial reports made out. A few key people are still working over there and at least Jeremy Parish has said the Retronauts podcast will continue. I wouldn't be too surprised if 1up was eventually able to hire some people back.
