I'm not a constant reader and i certainly do not have a subscription to it, but have flicked between getting it and not every month, but this month it caught my eye because it was none other than he revolutionary Playstation 3 that posed for the front page.

Play is a 100% unofficial magazine which reviews, tests and basically comments on videogames on playstation 2, 3 and PSP. It's still going today and retails at 4.99 so is cheaper than the official magazine. There are in all 13 magazines released each year, one each month and a special christmas edition. The magazine normally comes with a DVD disc containing information on the latest games coming to console. The mag is reviewed by a team with their own opinions so you know that their scores are not biased etc. There are roughly 120 pages in each mag and would take a few days to completely read etc. It's my favorite out of all the mags on the market as reviews ...  Read the complete review

PLAY is a great magazine which has excellent reviews on Playstation 1 and Playstation 2 games. The writers of the magazine are not afraid to give an honest opinion about any subject. In every issue there are over 800 games which are rated by the magazine writers. Some of the best features regarding the reviews is that they give you details, such as how many players there can be, if the game can be saved, if duel shock is available and lots more. Each issue of the magazine is less than 200 pages, but there is no free CD. With most issues there is something free like a cheat book.
