I've bought both mags, and they seem very good. One problem, I can only subscribe to one - which is the overall winner, DVD wise and general format of magazine?

Of course they're going to be biased towards the PS2! It's a PS2 mag! LOL. You wouldn't expect PSM2 to just start promoting the Dreamcast would you? No.

Anyway, I prefer the OPS2M than PSM2, I have read them both.

The offical magazine is packed with reviews but thats basically all it is, bit of news,previews here and there but not much variety. They haven't had many demo's until now because developers wanted their games out there ASAP and making a demo will cause delay. The "rush" is over now and it offers around 7 demos with trailers etc

PSW is a brilliant read and the DVD is outstanding, PSM2 is probably the best magazine and i like the developer insights but my advice Don't subscribe to any, go in a shop see which one you like for that month and buy it.

that's what i do :-)

I think it depends on what you want. PSM2 is the better magazine, but the DVD is just previews not playable. However the DVD on the official mag is full of playable demos eight in the latest edition inc. Smackdown 3, World Rally Championship, Airblade and Wipeout Fusion

I actually prefer reading the Official mag and like getting the playable demo disc each month, although it has been quite poor up until last month!!

Anyway - back to the original question - what are your opinions on the two mags????
