I don't know why the hell I brought this damn magazine but I did (only reason being, that was the only intresting mag in the shop, NGC was'nt there)
Anyway, It sucks monkeys. Firstly you get this free "wallet" thats so cheap and tacky you could easily mistake it for a drink coaster or something. I hate this wallet thing, Its like those wallets you brought when you were a child and thought they were cool, when they aint.
Moving off the supposed "wallet" the magazine is worse. Firstly the Zelda preplay - Not even a review is good enough I guess, as the game frankly looks amazing. But they rate games WAY to highly..."Hot wheels" got 8/10, ARE THEY INSANE? Jeez....
In the meantime, The mag is fanboyish and the star letter was something about multiplayer. Oooo-er, So prize deserving.
I'm sticking with NGC...

Bah, I only bought a few mags. Then stopped. I hate mags to be honest, you buy them, read them about 5 times, then you put them down. Damn annoying mags..
So needlessly argumentative.
Fanboys - yes, but it's just a bit of harmless fun, isn't it? Greystation and Dreampants were the low points.
It isn't wrong at all
People didn't have to do it

I knew that already, I was merely stating that the fact they did it in the first place was just plain wrong.

So?
Like I said, if you were intelligent enough to notice, you would get a better deal than if you traded in or sold second hand.

While it did get you a few N64 games, it was the most fanboyish thing ever!

No
the smashing thing was brilliant, Mario's Hammer time.
Basically if you had any console/controller you didn't want, you sent it in, they smashed it up and put the pictures in the letters section of the magazine, and then they sent you games to the value of it.
So if you sent a Playstation in you would get 5/6 N64 games back.
Much more than if you traded it in.

NOM's actually pretty good. Give 'em a chance, instead of expecting the worst. Reviews section's pretty poor though.
