So I was looking around town today and I bought a copy of the latest Official Xbox 360 Magazine. This is the second issue which you can see above. It came with a free DVD showing footages from games, both in game footage and trailer/teasers. There were also interviews included with some devlopers of some games. I had a quick peek and I was ashamed to see that a lot of the footage was either not very good quality or you could see that it hadn’t be done very well. Obviously some had been transcoded a couple of times which means the quality of the videos didn’t show me what I wanted to see from the Xbox 360. The only good high quality video was from Kameo. But even that was a trailer/teaser and not real in-game footage. I have made some screenshots of the games which I will post later. Right now I’m going to start reading the mag!
What will happen to the current Official Xbox Magazine? Will that continue, or will it just flip into the 360 one come christmas.
I’m not sure, but so far both mags are seperate and have been selling sperately. I’m sure there will still be a market for OXM so they will probably keep that as not everyone is getting a 360.
