Something tells me they meant public.

The other day, I went to the grocery store, and I randomly bought a GamePro magazine that was a Wii Gamer's Guide. I was reading some of the stories and I noticed that the magazine had a lot of mistakes.

One typo that caught my attention was about Star Wars: The Force Unleashed:
"While Star Wars has never really exited the pubic conscience, 2008 is the year it will burst back onto the scene like never before."


To have something to discuss, have you ever seen any funny/odd typos in a magazine or book?

Star wars has always excited public conscience, but I've never seen anyone masturbate to Jabba the Hutt. I'd say they definitely meant Pubic ;)

They also spelled excited wrong.

Oops I think that was a typo on my part.

Irony FTW.

And once I read a magazine that said "kidws" instead of "kids".

Nevermind, I just checked the magazine again and it said "exited".

Now, I have no idea what they meant!  ????

I think it's supposed to be exited (as in left or gone away).  It makes more sense like that.

EGM made the same typo last year when Shane was talking about Home.

Well, that's an interesting typo. :P
In a book we were reading in school, gray was spelled gay.
YEAH
