10 sodding british pounds!...yes £10! for a spin off with like 40 "dee-mos" i am pretty stunned... i mean £6 is bloody loads for 4-6 "dee-mos" and a mag' but that's a rip off, anyway, just thought I'd rant :-)

ten quid, frikkin ridiculous, they fob you off with a cheap CD full of crap demos.
I make a point of avoiding magazines with CD's on, unless it's something really great.

I agree. The magsine is not even good!! Half the time the "Dee-mos" are rubbish anyway! A peice of paper and a disk is worth no £10. The reviews are samey, and the staff writers..ugh...AGhh. I have only bought 5 issues of the mag ever, as i think its a rip off and their reviews are in poor taste.

Speeking of that, I recently feel raped by the way MS have forced me to download for 45 minutes a new update for MSN Mesenger, then, only after I downloaded it does it mention that you need Windows 98 or newer to run the F'ing thing. So that now leaves me, a windows 95 user completely F'ed.
No MSN for me.

Its a skam because its quite possibly the worst magazine I have ever read and its written by what appears a set of no handed monkeys.

How is it a scam ? It's not hidden, you don't walk up to the counter in WHSmiths thinking it's 99p and then get told it's £10 and they'll kill you if you don't pay.

No magazine is worth £10 he is right. OPS2 offers some pretty decent playable demos each month and thats cheaper than OXM. Its just a big scam to skank people out of money.
Does anyone force you to buy it ? Nope, you look at it, make your own judgement as to it's value and either buy it/don't buy it. It's not like any other magazine has playable demo games either.
