They bougt RaRE when they justn started making bad games... because Mic5rosoft is stoopid and Bill gates can't make a good thing in his life.
Oh and it isnt eeven selllling as well as the PSone in Japan... ha ha ha and it has had won game in the top 10 since its release in Japan.
Ha ha the X-box is poo poo.
end.
To be honest I don't notice it. And I disagree with Mav, I thought the current issue was good. I liked the Sudeki article. The free DVD was pants though. Futurama is only about 2 minutes long.

Ah yes. But what if the reader owns a GC and a PS2 as well? Then it's worth knowing. The way exclusives are tied to consoles now I think it's a step in the right direction to make clear that a game is an exclusive.

lol... Given how hyper Nintardo toddlers tend to get whenever anyone mentions anything potentially uncomplimentary about their machine, I'd have thought not throwing stones in when living in glass houses is probably a pretty good idea? ;)
Do they honestly think readers want that forced down their throat on every sodding page?
The majority of people who read the mag will already own an Xbox anyway, so there really is no need for it. If it was a multi-format mag then it would be just about tolerable but as it's a single format it's just retarded.
pretty damn biased (more so
> than NOM, who have actually been very impartial recently)
I agree. NGC give a view on a preview - if its MP2, then of course it is slightly jumpy. But most of the time, they keep a rather impartial view.
OXM on the otherhand seems to need to blast out things about why the XBox is so much better.
For somebody who is now appreciating more games, simply because I have the money, its terribly annoying.
Something about online modes, how Nintendo will fail in attempts to follow.
Fools. They don't even need to try*
:D
*slight change in facts - they can't be bothered.

The line that you may be referring to is "GameCube and PS2? We almost feel sorry for you". This is in context with a Halo 2 story so it may almost be worthwhile.

I heared they've stopped the GAD for the posts :(
