5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Best Official Video Game Magazines, January 11, 2010

The PS3 has a very tight knit gaming community. While the 360 has more people, the PS3 has more devoted fans. So, it goes without saying that their official magazine will share the same type of close knit community. The magazine itself is a monthly publication that has what you would expect, reviews, previews, blu-ray movie reviews, etc. The presentation though is where the magazine really shines. High glossy pictures, big pages, it looks nice. Compared to the 360's official magazine (which is also pretty good), it's miles ahead.

4.0 out of 5 stars A Solid Publication, November 7, 2009

By	Tom Mosgrove (Kentucky) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I typically would purchase The Official PlayStation Magazine each month at the store. Over time I have found that the magazine has become a very good resource for information regarding the PlayStation product line from Sony. In addition I enjoy some of the other articles and spotlights on technology and products that fit the gamers' lifestyle. The only negative, which can be said of a lot of magazines, is the review section. While larger titles get feature articles and they can justify the ratings, they use a 5 star system, some of the smaller titles or titles that are cross platform, get smaller write ups, and if you, as a consumer are on the fence about whether or not you would enjoy the title, or it is a waste of your money, it is hard to make the call based on a short article and a star rating. Overall the magazine is a solid and informative read, however, I wish they would revise their product review system.

4.0 out of 5 stars Wish I would have subscribed earlier..., January 17, 2007

By	WCAB - See all my reviews

Overall, this is a good magazine. Unfortunately, I should have subscribed earlier. I have received two issues so far and much of the magazine's contents deal with the PS3 and its upcoming games. I own the PS2 and do not plan to upgrade to the new system at the present time. Thus, I pretty much missed out on earlier issues which would have helped me in selecting games for my current system. Nonetheless, you own a PS3, or a PSP, you can't go wrong with this selection.
