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).

Very funny :). I'd check the NGC's letters page, if I could find it under that layout..

The replies are annoying to. They simply agree/disagree with them, make little effort to justify them, and then move on.

NOMs letter's are all ridiculously childish. People say such stupid things, and they print them.
I remember one time when someone won a game. Yes a game, for saying
"I think that Donkey Kong 64 was really wicked. It is really fun and the levels are really good. I hope that Rare make another one, because it si really ace!"

A game.
I know.
Try to control yourself.

I have a similar opinion. The reives are far to short and always seem to finish on a very odd note. The letters are extremley short, and while it has got better, it still has a tinge of 'bumblingness' about it, which is a shame.

I bought the lastest issue of NOM yesterday cause they had sold out of NGC.

It is the most boring magazine I've ever read.

I must of read about 7 pages of it, 3 of them the letters page, and then chucked it on the floor. The reviews are crap and un-informative, the layout and style looks extremely unfriendly, it looks big but to be honest there was actually very little game content, and why do all the letters read like they were written by some 7 year old gimp?
