We are delighted that "Official PlayStation Magazine" will deliver to its readers a monthly playable disc, and the world's first covermounted Blu-ray disc. Future has worked closely with Sony since 1995 to offer playable demo discs for PlayStation, PlayStation 2 (PS2) and PlayStation Portable (PSP), and we will be working hard to ensure gamers get the very best content for their PS3 as well. |

...About the official line that Sony cancelled the US mag. Since it's different publishing houses (US was Ziff/Davis), I wonder if it wasn't that Ziff/Davis just didn't want to eat the cost of the BluRay discs? In other words, maybe that will be reborn with a different publisher in about a year after Sony has dropped the price on PS3 and there are more in the market. Conversely, if Sony indeed was the instigator, it may be that they suspended this cost (again until economies of scale kick in), since they're already loosing loads of cash on the console. I mean, if the publisher isn't eating a big gulp of the cost, it could only mean Sony was. And, while you're market is small, you want to minimze as much needless expenditure as you can.

but others with internet can download them from the Store, unless they include exclusive content with the OPM disc.

» I loved OPM
I had the free subscritpion to OPM, and my roommate got the subscription to Electronic Gaming. Sony Canceled OPM, and now we get 2 copies of EG. How Lame.
I want my US OPM back!

How pointless is this? Everything they are offering through the disc will probably be available through the playstation network. "what about those people without network access" you may ask. well, i'm sure if one could afford a playstation 3, then they will more than likely also be able to afford high speed internet. "what about people who live where there is no net access?" well, these people still do have a choice, just as my friend does. he has net access through his cell phone. practically all providers offer this service. it's not good for gaming but it's better than nothing, and u should still be able to download from the network, just as he does. like i said, pointless. instead of wasting their money on producing the bd-roms w/trailers and demo's, they should use that money to offer a free retro game (for ps3) every month.

» That's not how you push a format!
What is the article writer up to anyway? This disc appears with OPM, which is a PlayStation magazine. It doesn't push any format. If it did that, it would appear on a 360 mag! Idiot.
