Im going to get a haircut and school shopping, so i wont be able to check out more stuff or asnwer ur Q's untill about 2-3 hours.

[Toonz]

Yup OXM sucks and I won't be renewing mine. The only thing good about it is the Demo disk but to be honest they don't give us enough content on it to warrant having it every month. Every 3-4 months it seems they are gonna put all the Demo's on 1 disk so I'll probably wait for those months and just grab it at the store. Much cheaper that way than even a subscription.

[El Papa Grande]

Not one new god damn Demo, Wtf this bull crap!!!!!!!

[Tkf5000]

i have all those games except crash and timeplitters(not even in stores). thats bull! we should e-mail them complaining we want our money back. and ima resubscrie. the next issue better be good and have sega gt and pow and enclave and dead to rights and all kinds of new games. or get a demo of a game from the future like they did with timesplitters.

[XslayerX]

Yeah I know, oh well , I just wanna see OXM stop being published.

[XslayerX]

No they been doing this alot, they dont care about us customers. I hate companies that dont care about us [the customers]


edit- i dont really wnat them to stop being published, but they needa stop this BS

[DaturaX]

why? its just one bad issue.

#10 was crap too IMO.So far I've recieved 6 issues and only a couple of the demo disks were worth anything IMO.In fact the demo disk is the only reason I subscribed in the first place,reviews can be read online for free and before OXM gets here.

People want demos of future or soon to be released games not stuff thats been on the shelves for months in some cases

same. they reuse demos over and over again... i got 2 ODCM demo discs with THPS2 on it... same demo.

and ODCM demo discs were great. OXM needs to learn.

btw, people... they don't suck. they must be doing something right, because you're giving them $25 a year.

so... people who subscribed must suck. simple as that.

[thebruce]

Hold on one second here... it costs you $25 a year to subscibe to OXM in the states? How many issues do you get?

We get 13 issues and I think it it ~£60 (about $100)!

[sinizuh]

in canada, it's over $60 to subscribe... bleh.

[xboxspecialist]

seems like u guys only care about the demo disk. if u think about it ur saving like 6++ dollars getting them mailed. u get alot of info and plus they throw a free disk in there for u to try. if u odnt like the disk then dont play it. be happpy ur getting a good deal. paying 24.95 a year.




daniel>>pz

[xboxspecialist]

i resubscribed.

[Magnum Blast]

Yeah I'm glad I didn't subscribe. I did buy #10 at the newstand for a the demos.

[teddeboy]

People are paying them the $25 a year because it's the only mag out there right now. Have you seen any other Xbox magazines ? With the exception of XBN (which is a byatch to find) there's nothing else. And being the official xbox licensed publication means a lot to some people (I could care less, I like the content at most web-sites more than that rag's printed content).

If you hate OXM so much, your options are to either subscribe to something like IGN online, or go hunt down XBN magazine, or write your own mag/site, or put up and live with it.

Odds are the developers didn't have anything playable yet with SegaGT or anything else, so they said "f@@k it, let's just go with what we have". At least this issue's coming out a little closer to schedule than the past few have (that's the only bright side I can find..)

Ya' can't just make demo's out of thin air. If the dev's didn't give them the demos in time for publishing deadline, that's the way it goes..

[Nato King]

Do you want to know something funny. I just got my OXM #10 that I have been waiting for about a month now. I hate OXM there are just to slow in getting me my mag. I won't get the #11 mag. until the end of next month or the first of October.:)

[Gimpy Mcgee]

OXM sucks bad, like you guys have been saying: The demo's are almost always old one's, and the Mag is just boring. Hell, OXM thinks that xbox is the only console that can handle the new rocky game....:rolleyes: Only on Xbox!!! Only on Xbox!!! thats all they ever say in the mag...... OXM is almost as bad as Nintendo power. And about the demo's half the time they are covered in scratch's. And where is all the downoadable content OXM bragged about last year? The only thing i have been seeing is the DOA bonus crap:confused:
