None of those scores were a surprise, its not like anyone was expecting much from those particular games.

The back cover does make me laugh, someone at MS must be a marketing genius. Im waiting for the issue of OXM with Resistance on the back now.
I dont want to celebrate, I want to sell you hate.

That would never happen on an " official" magazine, but yes, very nice marketing lol.

The back cover is definitely funny to say the least. Just goes to show how much of an advertising budget they have to spend on Gears now that its been so succesful.

I wouldn' t say thats a genius move, or even a smart one. Putting an add like that on a magazine directed at the other sector of the market doesn' t make much sense. Of all the gaming magazines to advertise on, that would be one with some of the least receptive buyers.

Well considering MS is paying for all of the marketing for Gears and not Epic it is a smart move because they are attempting to sway would be PS3 buyers to get a 360. If I was considering buying a PS3, read the reviews of the horrible games then flip the magazine over and see Gears with the quote " The best game we' ve ever seen." it would spark my interest.

The PS3 is backwards-compatible so essentially, God of war 2 is a PS3 game...
