From the way some are talking it sounds like they have the booster issue. Read the threads about it down below. Baah, we need some confirmation here! I don't wanna waste gas to pick up the latest issue if that booster isn't in there. Well, here is what our XBA buddy Irule23 says in his post in the DOA3 Booster thread:

omfg, the doa3 booster disc was awesome and the infomation about the halo too

Yeah, that poor games has not gotten no playing time in Ninja's Xbox since the first week I bought it along with the console & halo.
I guess this booster disc will justify my $50.00 I dropped on it!:D

I don't subscribe yet either.... I'm stuck with Newsstand because I'm on the road so much between living places in the performing world. However!

You can pick it up in stores, I believe it OXM has a street date of the 7th. So, around that time the DOA3 Booster will be in my hands. Yippee

Yo Ninja I've never been a big fan of "official" console magazines. I've never even purchased an OXM. My only interest in this edition is due to the DOA3 Booster. Ahh I might subscribe if I like this issue. We'll see....we'll see.....:cool:

Well Ninja I can't buy you any games I mean you're a ninja. What would people think of me if I was sending games to a ninja. I can guarantee this though, if I do subscribe I will personally PM U myself (something I never do BTW) and thank you. How's that for a deal huh?

My bad, I was thinking issues were around 9 bucks,
but I stand corrected. I've had a subscription since
the first issue and didn't pay any real attention to the price.

My apologies to the group, I feel so ashamed!

Now I gotta go kill something in Halo so I can feel better!!!

If you subscribe to OXM allow massive amounts of lead time. I sent the card in Feb 20. They sent me something wanting my credit card info in March, which I returned. No magazine yet. I called last week and they said I'm "in the works." :mad:

I normally get mine like early because one of the OXM places is in Harlan, Iowa. But I haven't got mine. They haven't talked about GTA3 for along time in that OXM also. I'm getting worried it's not going to come out until a while...dangit! Well hopefully this ones better than the SuperMan one (May addition) it was pretty cool but it could be better. Not saying I don't like it either. :)

I know the introductory price was $24.95, but it maybe $29.95 now. But no more than that.
And you will get 12 issues, polybagged with a 12 free Xbox DVD Demo Disc that every own will include demo games and movie previews of future titles.
I think whatever they are asking you are getting a sweet ass deal regardless.
Your missing out if you dont playa!:)

What's wrong with hooking up a Ninja with some Xbox games & software? :confused: True, after I get them I will more than likely kill you with my faithful katana sword, but I think from your stand point it will be worth your while!:D

For the past 2 months OXm has been slipping. Their demos have been launch games and ports. Theirs fetures section is exactly the same. I finished reading the mad after 5 minutes. They even said TXB had the best forums. :p

Are you saying the June issue is nothing important?? Man...this sucks...

I am sick of the old demos, why can't they get soem early builds and just put a warning that the game might be better like they did on the Superman videos...

I mean come on, what is the point in putting Halo on the disc....either you have it by now, you really want it by now, or you are just totally uninterested...

I mean that's like handing out a can of coke to each household to increase notoriety....


C'mon!!! Where are the NEW demos!!!!!!!!

Also didnt you think it was a cool idea to put demos on games? I wish they would keep that up...great idea.

Brevity
04-24-2002, 12:43 PM
What they really need is demo's of games TO BE LAUNCHED, get it to us b4 hand and let us know if this is a "stand in line for game." I really want those xbox add-ons too like the customize thing and maybe a Halo add on. The new ending to the Halo demo was sweet, Ill give em that. I bet the Ninja would chop off his ownn man hood if he even tried to pick up a sword, what do think Gokux? hehe I would like to see him try to do some of those cartoon flips and slashes and it would be like "rrrrr keeya Oh fuk my sack!" haha ahha
