We all know who Nintys are (who coined that phrase?) but what shall we call Sony fans? And Microsoft fans?

All entries into this thread, the two winners get....their phrase used in all subsequent threads. Tony might offer a FAD, or something.

Anyway, good luck!

Hey! I'm not! I don't read NOM and never have anyway!

I always go for the unofficial mags mainly becuase they're funnier and are less likely to be biased!

Ant tells me that NOM stands for Nintendo Offical Magazine.

Well, apart from having a slightly French word order, I am completely and utterly disgusted by this publication.

How can an OFFICIAL magazine say thing such as "Fony GreyStation" and "Sega Dreampants"? I am shocked and appalled at this. No wonder all Nintys are such high and mighty b******s, if this is what they are encouraged to think by an official publication!

I really think that you Nintys should pick up a copy of OPS2 magazine and see what an proper, mature publication is like.

Maybe Nintendo consoles are aimed at younger readers, and Nintendo magazines are aimed at younger readers.

Says something, doesn't it.

I am hearing you Ant. They are a bunch of saps who just score Nintendo and Rare games highly. Banjo Tooie 97% surely it isn't that good.

Tell you what, hearing that has really annoyed

I'll just go and find out.......seems like they have several actually:

I think Microxs is good to.
