Ok,if we take official magazines in general,we can usually expect some sort of bias towards the respective format. That is only natural. However NOM takes the biscuit. It might as well be propaganda from the president of nintendo himself, because if it were any more biased it would turn itself into a N64. More or less every game is rated far too highly,there is lack of objective, and all in all a waste of money UNLESS you want the guides,and cheats etc, which I have to say are excellent.If you want honest reviews go elsewhere but if you want tips , cheats and stratagies NOM is your mag.
