Title: Are there any PS2 magazines in the U.S.?
Post by: ExtremistAS15 on March 08, 2001, 06:14:13 PM

What I mean is strickly PS2, and every month it comes with a demo disc. Cause Europe is really lucky right now with the GT3 demo disc and what seems like a good mag.

Only stupid little unauthorized mags made by the same company as all those Britney Spears mags... also, theres PSE2, a thin, oversized mag. The other 2 PS mags, PSM and OPM cover PS2, but aren\'t \'PS2\' mags. I wish OPM and Sony would get their asses in gear and start with the PS2 demos...

its not so easy to just make demos...as OPM already has PS1 demos..it would cost money to produce OPM2 with demos...and you have to have SONY\'s approval to make demos..as PSM will most likely wont have demos [when was the last time you see them with demos?...NEVER !] so the ONLY bet is OPM coming out with OPM2..but i doubt thats going to happen soon since OPM is covering PS1 and PS2 already

I believe I said OPM and Sony both in my statment about PS2 demos. I know what goes into making a demo disc...

yea but how long will the PS1 be around - right now there is a lot more PS2 news to cover than PS1

plus what is the difference in making one demo disc that contains PS1 and PS2 demos - doesn\'t seem to farfetched to me

i mean - they make more than enough profit with their 9 buck an issue price

the Playstation Underground CD Magazine now comes with 2 disks (it always has) but one is now just PS and one is Just PS2. It just started in the winter edition. here is the PS2 stuff that was on it:

Armored Core 2, Dynasty Warriors 2, Madden 2001, SSX, Silent Scope, an R&D demo of the emotion engine I think (but it reeks of awesomeness!). Videos of Ready 2 Rumble Boxing Round 2, Twisted Metal Black if you can find the right code.......they came up with a good one this time.....anyone find it???????  Behind the Scenes of DOA2:HC, Starfighter, plus Downloads, cool moves....and the Grinch Movie trailer....... not too bad.

I got PSE2 once and didnt like it one bit.....and OPM\'s demo disks plain suck now.....nothing but repeats!
