"I have NOM and you don't!"

Sorry that I have to annoying but me and others that have subscribed with NOM in the past months got their copy of NOM #122 today. To other subscribers do you get the normal prizes that came with the shop versions or just random stuff from NOM themselves? Even though I didn't get the movie covers of Harry potter 2 (Oh what a loss!) I would still like to get them.

What the hell........

I had 6.5 million and my score wasn't printed!!!!!!!

NGC is the much better magazine of the two, in my opinion. It's written better - as in it gives straight honet opinions, rather than the flowery sentences NOM have - and NGC covers more topics, like why the GC hasn't had price cuts and how Nintendo officials are avoding the reasoning behind this. Even NOM's starfox feature last issue was poor, we've all seen most of the screen shots before, and NOM have a fixation on Fox's fur....... NOM is aime at kids too much - yay free lego comic ! e.t.c.

They're both good, but future Publising's magazines have always been the best since Sega Power...

LOL, I think the monkeys may have been replaced by 22 year old pot heads.

Fair enough, you guys can have your opinions and I respect that, but I think NOM are doing extremely well at the moment. When I first got my N64, I bought a copy of each of the magazines and came to the conclusion NOM was the best. I did the same with the GameCube, and again found NOM more interesting.

So do the majority of GC owners :D.

I have to say, NOM just bores me. I find the writing extremly dull and it doesn't compel me to read things i'm not immediately interested.

I read every page of NGC, even of games I'm not interested in, it's a far better magazine.

I wish NOM would be like it used to be.

Does anyone remember who the editor was around the time the N64 was released? He was some fat guy and they always made jokes comparing him to David Mariner from Waverace 64. Anywya, he was the best and so was the rest of the team. It was full of humour, some of it quite adult that the kids wouldn't get, there was none of this crap modern 'minimalist' layout they have now, and most importantely it was interesting. It was a bit like Conker's Bad Fur Day.
