I rarely buy magazines anymore, I get Gamesmaster every few months, and Mac Format every few months aswell. I'd rather get a book which lasts longer and doesnt go outdated.

Very rarely the magazines I buy are either Four Four Two, the Man City one and Nuts or Zoo. Thus I voted no. :eusa_clap

Hey,

Used to buy OXM but to be honest its a waste of money, they are getting thinner and packing them with the same old articles and advertisements.

The last issues I bought of OXM had like the first 10 pages of it ALL the same (Practically) and whats the point, maybe if you dont have LIVE but you can get the demo's for free from Marketplace!

The official magazine I found was useless, they just insulted everyone and anyone, really depressing, boring and over-priced. The editors where all so full of themselves and cocky. They even tried to take the piss out of readers but it was an epic fail.

Last week I bought X360 magazine and it's been alright so far, real down to earth reviews, but very useful reviews, bit over-priced though again so I won't be in a hurry to buy any of the magazines again.

I tend to stick to Web User and Windows Vista magazine :P - Damn I'm beginning to sound like a right Microsoft fan boy :P

No, I don't like any magazine dedicated to one console. The information is generally biased and the reviews less trustworthy than other magazines imo...

I was subscribed to Gamesmaster for like 5 years, then stopped cos i couldnt afford it anymore.
Its a good magazine, that usually had alot of funny bits in it, and always had unbiased reviews. Also had unbiased fors and againsts on who would win the console war.

i still buy it sometimes, but don't reli have much money tbh.

Hey , i dont buy any but i might , which is the best value for money magazineAll of them are well-priced, the official xbox magazine is especially over-priced even more than the rest though. Just go for the one which looks the most interesting, whichever one you choose you get ripped off unfortunately.

This month the official xbox magazine does have an exclusive review of GTA4 so it could be worth a look.

Dont you think it makes it seem better being biased than unbiased it adds more colour i feel.

I subscribe to OXM (Xmas Present) which was only like £40 which saves you like £32 off buying them normally, plus you get them delivered to your door 3 days before retail release.

Bit of a waste of money imo. Most of the stuff will be on the net within a day anyway so you may aswell save yourself the money. Plus i only look at the pic's to lazy to actually read a mag.
