Customer Reviews of PSM Independent Playstation Magazine [1-year]

Good for previewing far off games, bad for reviews.
I personally like this magazine. It's nice to get information specific to systems I own (playstations)- and a lot of it at that- every month. They have some pretty solid news about the games i'm looking forward to getting most, and so far have covered MGS 4 great (been something about it every issue i've gotten yet). The only thing I dislike about it are the reviews it gives every month. They're usually not in line with my feelings, or any of the people i talk to about the reviews online (forums, etc). They gave warhawk a 6.5/10, while every other reputable games site has given it scores of at least 8.0/10 and up (sept EGM apparently)(I personally love that game). The opposite goes for heavenly sword, which received a 9.7/10 if my memory serves me right, while other sites averaged it in the 7/10 area. <

>However, they have provided good coverage for the games on the playstation systems, which is what i bought it for anyway. I'm a big fan of their article on UT3, and pretty much all of their previews have been stellar. They cover a wide range of games, not just the most popular ones everyone and their mother have heard about. <

>So, it's a pretty good buy for the price, but not if you're looking for reviews- but since most people turn to IGN, 1up, or gamespot for reviews anyway, and use magazines for more in depth stories about games that those sites haven't even began to cover, this shouldn't be a problem.

Great Mag. Great Price.
I have been a PSM reader for years. Previews, reviews, and highlights are spot on. It allows me to be ahead of the game (...sorry for the pun).
