Get this. Don't ask questions, just do it. Seriously, it's a great mag, probably their best ever. It comes with a free 2003 calendar, a new preplay section (featuring a 7 page look at Metroid Prime), a 'Games Of 2003' feature and more. Plus, there's no review shorter than half a page.

who claim they are the authorities on gaming and put stupid pictures on the letters pages to make them look big and hard.

NOM is written with crayons by blind, leper monkeys.

NGC out Friday, CUBE out Thursday. Non-subscribers get them early. There's too many issues this time of year as both magazines fit in 13 magazines a year.

Out this Friday.

I think most of you are getting mixed up.

Metroid Fusion is not Metroid Prime.
NOM reviewed Metroid Fusion (the GBA game) and will review Prime (the GC game) when it comes out.

Expect ravings.

Oddly enough, I have got the new Cube and NOM here. Me and my brother got them without realising the other was.

Couldn't find new NGC, or else Cube would nver have been bought.

NOM is certainly getting better.

bah. we 'NOMers' don't need your type buying.

Mah!

NOM isnt worth a cent. Since they robbed me for so long with poor content ive shunned them. Forever.

Nom may be written by bum-faced gibbons. But that doesn't make it any worse.

exept for that gay new 'week in gaming' bit at the front. they all have the same thing:

> playing *whatever* tillvery late and not understanding anything

> beating *whoever* at *whatever*

> beating *whoever's* top score on *whatever*

bring back the 'who'd I be'!

NOM's good - and NGCers should give this month's a try, it's really well written.
