I should have the scan by tommorow morning, as I need to instal my Scanner again and plug it in on my new computer. There are some cool screens, one with a large Robot who looks like one from Ratchet and Clank. They say that the things it should have are: Abe Xbox Live Epic Battle Scenes.
There are levels where you have to doge flamethrowers.

You must kill the Bad Guy, but never kill the boss, as you need to take him to the bounty store. You must switch to the less deadly Amo when trying to catch the boss.

It says Munch came out on the Xbox in 2002, and Abe's Exoddus came out on the XBOX in 1999? Did it?

I've got the mag, I could scan it now if you like.
I'm not sure if it's the same mag for the the Isle of Mann as it is for the rest of the UK. But I'll post it anyway.

Edit:

I've got scans from two magazines, OXM and GamesMaster. OXM has one page and GamesMaster has four pages.

Here's the thumbnail for OXM.


Thanks to ImageShack for Free Image Hosting

The GamesMaster scans will come in a second.

Awesome review. Just god damn awesome.

Finally a magazine who sees creativity and originality. Rather than a magazine *cough EGM *cough* giving games like GTA a super high score.

People have forgotten that XBM is different to OXM

Two ncie previews there, but they're certainly not reviews.

I've gotten so used to calling OXM 'The Xbox Magazine', I forgot there was an unofficial version.

I'm not sure what's going on with the scans, they all work when I click the links.

What does the writing going sideways on the edge of the OXM page say?

ps Is this really a spoiler?

That's nothing, that's just standard writing about the mag. Nothing Important.

Not really, no.
