Beckett MOG

I got my first issue of the Beckett Massive Online Gamer magazine today. Interesting read, but not really outstanding. It has an article or two about every major MMORPG, down to and including Puzzle Pirates and MtGO, which both aren't really MMORPGs (but are massively multiplayer online games). A bit more articles on WoW than on other games, as to be expected.

Some of the articles are just promotional, the Auto Assault one was actually written by NCSoft's Senior Marketing Manager. But many games are covered in a way that at least gets you some basic information about them, if you haven't played them yet. There are some WoW leveling guides, dungeon guide, a description of one quest series, and even a auction house price list, which doesn't help you a lot, considering how much prices differ between servers.

Nothing you couldn't live without, and a bit pricey at $5.99, but I subscribed anyway, lets see how the magazine evolves. Just a bit sad that I missed the first issue, my subscription somehow started with the second one.
