Reviews mean nothing especially one from the OFFICIAL magazine, like they dare slag off a massive game like that, i just hope its a return to the quality of the PS1 version and not just another retread, saying that a retread of MGS is better than most games

This is the same magazine that gave Warhawk a 6/10. Then again, they were PSM then. I didn't agree with them then, and I don't trust them now. You are right that it's hard to trust official magazines. I know that "Games for Windows" was always fair. They loved steam and often criticized Microsoft for their Games for Windows label and service. Of course, the magazine supposedly got canceled now...so there ya go, huh? I don't know much about that, though, because I'm behind on the podcasts (they are 1up, too).


 No it's not, PSM =/= OPM


Heh, yeah it is. Or rather, PSM was changed to OPM, which used to be Ziff Davis (1up, EGM, etc). OPM stopped awhile ago, but now the PSM staff is OPM as of a few months ago. Trust me, I've had a subscription to the magazine almost the entire length of its existence.


 OPS2M lost its editor Tim Clark who went to set up OPM, which covers all playstation platforms. I have copies of both PSM and OPM from the last few months (in fact I have all but two of the OPM mags). I have been a subscriber to the official PlayStation Magazine for a long time, but I had to change my subscription to get the new OPM instead of the old OPS2M, PSM is completely different. While future publishing does all of them, there is an official playstation range of mags, which is OPM, OPS2M, and OPSPM

EDIT: are you talking about the US version? I am talking about the UK
