Amazon.com Review:
"Like Maxim, but about Xbox!" was clearly the mandate given to Mike Salmon, former editor-in-chief of PC Accelerator and current editor-in-chief of The Official Xbox Magazine. He got it half right: this gamer lifestyle magazine has the locker-room feel of Maxim but lacks Maxim's intelligent, tongue-in-cheek style. The result is something that looks like it was written by high-school sophomores. For example, a bio of Kasumi, a character in the game Dead or Alive 3, reads "A redhead with a difference--she can take on all comers. And if DoA 3 has the "[breast] bounce on/off" option, she'll definitely have a lot of comers." On the plus side, the game reviews and previews are informative and mostly free of bull. --Mike Fehlauer

Content: This product is pretty good except for you most likely will never receive your 12th issue. Other than that you get disks of demos every month and pretty good articles.

Content: The Official Xbox Magazine (OXM) has been one of the most consistent and fun gaming magazine to read since the inception of the first Xbox. I have been a subscriber since that day and i can say from my own experience that this magazine is unlike all others. When u read all the articles they do so in a un-biased manner so you know that their honest opinion about games is very accurate to what most people feel. This magazine makes their subscribers feel like a part of their family and once you get adjusted to this style of magazine you wont be unsatisfied. The only draw back is that if you dont own a xbox 360 or not into gaming then you wont find much interesting here obviously. but if you do have an 360 then the OXM is a must have accesory to your collection because there is none better than this.
Summary: Outstanding video game reviews and previews are always up to date

Content: When I bought my Xbox 360, there was a 'One free issue' thing for OXM, which I sent in to see how it was. The magazine's content itself is relatively horrible. The writer's lack creativity and humor. The reviews are useless. I couldn't stand to read much of the content. The discs the game comes with are pretty pointless as well.
To top that off, their claim that the free issue had 'no obligations' was BS, as they keep sending me notices to pay for a year's subscription.
Don't waste your money on this piece of junk. I myself read Electronic Gaming Monthly. It's about a billion times better.
Summary: Lame, Horrible Service

Content: It takes several weeks for order to go though(6-ish weeks), but from there on it's all peachy.
Just for clarification - magazine DOES include the disc.
All in all, everything is exactly as advertised.
Rate it 5/5
Summary: Mag + DVD, just as promised
