PS3 review scores:

Fight Night Round 3 - 78
Full Auto 2: Battlelines - 36
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance - 78
Mobile Suit Gundam: Target In Sight - 28

...and humorous back cover...

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.

LOL!

Even sony cant resist gears!

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.

Haha, outstanding. Surprised at the scores...only a little though.

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.

God of War 2? surely thats a ps2 title and dosent belong in the ps3 mag.

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