I got NGC editon 74 yesterday and after reading their review of SFA I am outraged by it, I have totally begun to distrust every single Review that they will be posting in the future after I read this certain review. They always try to find something to go on about the game in a non likeable perspective, like it's tedious and it's not really original.
I never really like them since they changed to their big version of the magazine. Also what I find hard to beleive is that they completed the game in 15 hours, that and Eternal Darkness (well it might be possible for ED).

I really hope that they can redeem themselves from this, because the rest of the magazine is good but not the best. I find CUBE to be the best so far, NOM is good because of their walkthroughs and tips section, G-force because of it's free DVD with every issue (hopefully it will have a DVD with Starfox video clips on it).

Maybe the guy of GameFAQS copied the NGC walkthrough?

NOM has changed, it's less childish, much more boring, bland and un-interesting.

The only problem i have with NGC is the fact they plaguerise Gamefaq's. Take a look at their lost kingdoms tips and then check one of the faq's, its a straight copy.

I did gve them another go. I found that they were still as rubbish as ever. I know you prefer them, but my opinion is that they have never been as good as NGC/N64.
But neither of them is as good as DC-UK. No way.

He can't cope with contents pages. All the information inside makes his brain, which is used to reading next to nothing in NOM, explode.

See what you do is, you look at the contents page, look at the page number for letters, then you flick to that page. I don't think NOM have suchn a complicated system.

Although it's easy to find what your looking for in NOM, it's so empty and bland that you'll spot it a mile off.
