I got this from gaming age.....so I don\'t know if it true.
I\'m pretty impressed with the reviews sounds good.  DOA3, Halo, NFL Never, Madden,  Transworld Surf, THPS2x, and Nascar heat all did very good.  Awesome XBox!!!!!

Well there you have it.  The official Xbox magazine says DOA3 is the best fighter ever.  It looks like I was wrong all along. [/sarcasm off]

And they said THPS2X was the best skating game ever...um...I guess they forgot that THPS3 was coming out next week.

And what a surprize the uk ps2 mag  mag says that tekken 4 is the best fighting game, isn\'t that funny.Ohh sorry just what is your point?!!!!

Read the post above your FULLY before you say something stupid!(Answer below)

This is what they said.

THPS2X = 8.8 "Best skateboarding game ever."
(until THPS3 of course)

*cough*

PSM2 Magazine said they didnt like Tekken 4..
They said it played to similar to Tekken 3 and it looked just like TTT.. Something like that..

Ill wait for their review..
One thing is sure.. PSM2 aint afraid to bash the games that deserves bashing..
Heck, GT3 didnt even get the highest score..

So far SSX is the game with the highest score.

And when did i say it was the Offical mag *cough* so shut up!

If the mag is for the ps2 then it is going to think that ps2 games are the best.
I mean look at PSW they gave the F1 game from EA a 10 what the hell was that about that game was crap!
And why do they keep giving games 10 anyway, because no game should get a 10, because they can always be improved, or something better will come out.

Come on Ethan_Hunt, your not stupid.  You know my point.  Did you guys know that in the first issue of Xbox magazine, they have a list of 100 (or some really big number) reasons to get an Xbox over a NGC and PS2.  After you read that, you\'ll understand why the official Xbox magazine is not a credible source.

And thanks for that info fastson.

How do you know Xbox magazine said that and not the person who was copying it out of Xbox magazine just giving his personal opinion?  I don\'t think Xbox magazine would promote THPS3 when the PS2 and NGC are getting it this year and the Xbox is getting it late next year.  That just wouldn\'t make sense.

Thanks for proving my point.  The official Xbox magazine is not a credible source.  See, you did know my point all along.

"How do you know Xbox magazine said that and not the person who was copying it out of Xbox magazine just giving his personal opinion?"

Because i have read quiet a few post about this on different forums, about the offical mag, and they all say the same, and i will say sorry now if i am wrong, but that is what i read, i don\'t want to argue with anyone on here, but people should give things a chance before always jumping on it.

And it was 70 reasons to get an Xbox, i have the mag, my dad got it for me when he was in america, and of course they are going to give you reasons to buy Xbox over other consoles, i was reading GCN over here in the UK, and in the news sectyion they gave a reason to get GC over Xbox.
I dont know but they were saying something about the launch figures, and said something like they are not going to have anywhere near the  600,000 of there bulky consoles, not to bad, but every mag says stuff about of there consoles.

So yes i can get your point.
Sorry for nearly making a row dude, no hard feelings?
I still ove my PS2 ya know:yawn: (hopefully should get Devil May Cry in the post tomorrow,HELL YEAH!)

I still don\'t think it would make very much sense for Xbox magazine to say that.  It\'s almost like them saying, "Don\'t bother getting THPS2X.  THPS3 is coming out soon and it will be a lot better."  But I guess this is the Xbox magazine we\'re talking about.  Who knows how their minds work?  

And of course no hard feelings.  Anything that someone says in the console debating forum that I don\'t agree with I take as fightin\' words.  It\'s nothing against you.  I\'ve just been in the Console Debating forum way too long and I\'m a little edgy.

Official mags are good for general comments.  The only thing I\'ll take away from these scores are that some games are good and some aren\'t so good.  A general guideline is all you can realistically expect from something official, especially this early in the magazine\'s life.
