Official Nintendo Magazine is still going strong here in the U.K. If the U.K market can support an official Nintendo magazine, I can't see why the gargantuan (by comparison) US market for magazines cannot.

What magazine do you still check out while at the store? | |||
| This one | 15 | 26.79% | |

| GAme informer | 7 | 12.50% | |
| Another | 2 | 3.57% | |
| none | 25 | 44.64% | |

That is about the only thing I had to look up on GI to remember their biased against Nintendo (especially the Wii). They gave MH3 a 7.. WTF? The reviewer probably played it for a total of 10 hours if that. The game deserves at least a 8.5/10 considering it is one of the Wii best third party game.
I can keep going if you want me to. Lets see.. They gave BO on Wii a 6.5/10. I've played this game at least 300+ hours and it deserves at least a 7-8/10 rating. They also gave Goldeneye a 6.5/10 which it is at least a 7-8/10 game also. Looks like they knock a decent amount of points off just because the HD versions have a few extra things included and better graphics. Do the Wii game versions deserve an automatic 2-3 point reduction because they are produced on the Wii? Just looking at some of their Wii reviews on their site makes me laugh. They have games like Cars 2 at 7.75. So they are saying Cars2 is .75 better than MH3? I know these reviews are done by different people but come on. GI is a joke.

oh please, that wasnt even an editorial. Have you ever considered that they dont like MH?? THey gave the PSP ones about the same score so they must hate PSP?? Lets use some maturity and common sense, there are like 40 different reviewers at any given time you really expect them to think alike?? Please. BO on Wii maybe it runs like crap? So because you think a game deserves a certain score anyone else is wrong?? Please. I dont agree with the scores on the FPSs but thats someting to take up with Tim TUri he is the one who reviews those games, he seems to have something against FPS on Wii, but thats not the whole damn staff, if you actually read it you would know. I dont like MH games and I never played Cars 2 so it very well may be better to me.
I love how you pick the negative, DKReturns got game of the month. Kirby MA 8.5, Zelda 3d 9.35 KEY 9.25 SSF43d 9, DJ Hero2 9.25. etc I have no problem with someone not liking something. But at least back up your argument with something concrete. Picking a handful of games that you didnt like the score is lame. I could pick twice as much games that scored well.
