OXM Demo Discs: List Of Exclusive Free Contents (Gamerpics & Themes)

Cheapskate

CAGiversary!

Hopefully this thread hasn't been done before, a search didn't bring anything up. I haven't been able to find a complete list of what free exclusive gamerpics and premium themes are available on each of the demo discs that come with Official XBox Magazine, so I figure I'd start one. Because the free content requires buying issues of the magazine (or the discs), I'm assuming this is probably a better place for it than the freebie forum.

Most (all?) of this content isn't available on XBLM, only on these discs.

Since I don't have a lot of these discs myself (I was searching for a guide in order to know what discs to look for), it'd be great if anyone who does have the discs could help fill in the blanks below.

Note: Items marked as "unlockable" require earning 800 in-game points first by playing the disc's demos. This practice ended near issue #100.

To add to the confusion, the UK demo discs sometimes contain some gamer pics not on the US demo discs, and vice versa.

[quote name='garfep']#80 also has some Rock Band tracks on it.[/QUOTE]

Do you remember which tracks? (And if they were exclusives or not?)
 
[quote name='Cheapskate']Do you remember which tracks? (And if they were exclusives or not?)[/QUOTE]

These were the tracks on OXM 80:

Rock Rebellion" by Bang Camaro (master)

"Shake" by Count Zero (master)

"Super Sprode" by Freezepop (master)

They were later released as DLC on 4/8/08

I like the idea of this thread. I have most of the older discs and I'll try to fill in the gaps as long as I can just throw in the discs to check quickly and not have to re-watch the videos and launch the demos. :lol:

EDIT - OXM 69 had some GRAW content for free on disc:

Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2 (Chapter 2 downloadable content)

[quote name='reddjoey']Those 108 pics are nice too![/QUOTE]

Yea, I have one of the Fallout New Vegas gamer pics as my avatar.
 
if you could color code the freebies that would be awesome so at a glance you could easily identify what's what as well as make the thread look pretty. themes one color, gamer pics, another and none. etc

*nods* I'm planning to, this is just something I put together quick before I had to head to work (and checking in on breaks). It'll look prettier soon.
 
I have the GRAW and Rock Band disc. I used to have the Oblivion content disc but somehow I lost it or somebody borrowed it and never brought it back. I really want all of those Valve pictures... the only ones I have are the four character pics from L4D.
 
There's a thread elsewhere in the forum for a mailing chain, where someone on the list is sent the disc, then mails it to the next person, etc. I'm mainly interested in the Valve stuff as well...maybe someone who happens to already have the Valve ones could package all the discs together in one box and have that sent around? I dunno.

But if that did happen, it'd be nice if we had solved where to find those mystery origin ones, so those could be in the package as well. I read somewhere that possibly sometimes the UK OXM had different gamer pics? Do we have any UK CAGs who could confirm this?

Also, still trying to find info on #105 and #106...can't find any mention of what is or isn't on those discs for bonus content.
 
Mystery solved-ish...it appears that pretty much all of the "mystery" pics are indeed from UK OXM demo discs. I have no numbers yet, other than that the L4D2 gamer pics are from UK OXM #57. Anyone know if demo discs are region free?

I have that issue (bought a copy just for the theme) and I didn't have to play any demos or do anything to install the theme and gamerpics.

Edit: Also, the Condemned, PGR4, and OXM Universe themes wouldn't have been premium since the NXE update wasn't released until November 19, 2008.

Confirmed on this. I put the PGR4 theme here and received the same response that they aren't premium themes even if it says so on the disc.
 
[quote name='Navigator2001Plus']I have that issue (bought a copy just for the theme) and I didn't have to play any demos or do anything to install the theme and gamerpics.

Ah, I'd read they'd stopped the OXM Universe thing after #100 and just assumed they kept up the unlockable thing until that point as well.
 
The new issue and disc 110 showed up this week. The magazine does not indicate there is any free content, but I haven't had a chance to check it out yet. Will update when I do. Also why are they all of a sudden including old demos that are no longer available on live on the disc?
 
Very Nice thread. My current subscription to OXM is done at this time but I'm considering re-sub when I find a decent deal. If anyone knows of one let me know.

Plus I can filter through my discs and pull some for those premium themes. A few of my buddies wanted some but I couldn't remember which discs had them. thanks!

Interested in hearing if there is anything on the disc. My subscription ran out last month and they comped me a free disc-less issue to try and get me to resubscribe. (I've already resubscribed through Amazon's 2 years for $25 promotion that expires tomorrow.)
 
If there were a way to inject gamerpics from a USB device. Which it appears there isn't, without some programs to hack your USB.

As far as subscription deals? As of my checking right this moment, Amazon's "two years for the price of one" deal still appears to be in effect.

Geez, if they're going to start doing reruns, they could at least make it worthwhile by offering the Orange Box gamer pics again (if the alternative is not running any at all), and this time including all the ones they forgot but that the UK OXM managed to put out. Plus, there are the L4D2 gamer pics as well.

This is the last night for that 2 years for 1 deal at Amazon, and I'm *still* on the fence about ordering, just because I'm most interested in the exclusive gamerpics and themes, and it's starting to look like they might just drop it entirely. (Though digging through the OXM image urls when I was posting all those, it appears there are SSFIV gamer pics coming up next...if it doesn't end up being another UK OXM only thing.)

Any chance I could borrow that disc off you? I could offer you a Borderlands free-theme disc that we could either just keep, or trade back.

Yea, I can confirm that there is no bonus content on disc 110. There are 3 'classic' demos included though... :drool:

I did end up getting in on the B2G1 year subscription offer via amazon. My current subscription just ended this month too so it was timely. I am a bit worried that the days of getting some good stuff on the OXM discs is coming to an end. Not sure we are getting any exclusive first look demos or DLC any longer. I guess as long as they keep giving us premium themes and gamerpics that isn't a bad deal but we'll have to see if those keep coming.

I have a couple discs that show as unreadable in my 360. Wasn't there a trick to get these to work? Possibly putting the disc in boiling water for a few seconds or something? I thought someone posted that was a method that worked.
 
Issue 111's disc supposedly has some classic Street Fighter gamerpics. Haven't had a chance to get it in the 360 yet but I'll post if it has anything else.
 
Finally got my first issue from the Amazon subscription (was starting to get nervous). Geez, I didn't realize these things were so thin...I think if I were paying more than $1 per issue or whatever, I'd feel a little ripped off.

It looks like #112's gamerpics are Dead Rising 2. I'll update the thread in a little while.
 
[quote name='GUNNM']What pics are used in 112? I cancel my subscription and they send SSF4 pics and dead rising 2 pics.=/[/QUOTE]

Updated to show the pics. I hope these brightly-colored-backgrounds aren't a new continuing theme.
 
Looks like you can get some of these discs off Goozex but the range from 100-450 points it seems. Not worth it for free themes and gamer pics.

awesome thanks
 
[quote name='Moltres423']No gamerpics/themes on disc 113 =([/QUOTE]

Lame. I thought that the premium themes would be a standard for the issues when they first started, those stopped, then we got pretty weak gamerpics and now those seemed to be stopping...sheesh!
 
Yea, nothing at all on the last two discs. Funny how this started shortly after amazon had that buy 2 years for the price of one deal on OXM and some other gaming mags. Oh well, I have about 18 more months left so hopefully things will pick up again before I have to make a renewal decision.
