I've bought OXM twice, and that's enough to convince me not to spend any more money on that boring, overpriced and biased pile of crap.

I buy it. I'm dissapointed with the magazine sometimes- I find it a bit dry and uninteresting although I generally agree with the reviews.

I have all the issues so far and all the demos. They are the main reason I buy it, I enjoy trying games I normally wouldn't even consider such as gladius last month. I Emailed OXM a few weeks back about my unhappiness with them removing videos from the disc so hopefully my letter should be there next month. and i'll see what they have to say.

Doubt they'd answer it.

Bunch of arrogant knobheads.

I doubt it. I wrote I wouldn't accept "you can download videos if you subscribe" or any other crappy excuse. I mentioned that OXM isn't great value as it is (£6) and removing one of the discs key functions becomes even worse value.

They better respond- the punks.

I used to buy it in the early days when there wasn't many games available, but I don't bother anymore.
I'm now fully convinced that the Xbox is a great machine, and if I like the sound of a game I tend to just buy it. I'm rarely disappointed.

Star Wars: KOTOR & Otogi - bring.them.on.

And after that - Fable, Halo 2, etc, etc, etc.

Considering the latest issue clearly states that videos will be on the Sept 4th issue then they'd have no need to answer it. At least Microsoft have a magazine which has demos on it, as does Sony, the current issue is worth the price alone just for the Otogi and Ghost Recon demo games.

About time Nintendo pulled their finger out regarding demos, in my opinion.
