OC Weekly cover by Jim Rugg (link roundup)



Cover story by Jim Rugg for the OC Weekly. The tease for the featured article says, "Cancer wasn’t killing Jack Jessee fast enough. Did that drive his wife to hire a hit man?"

And a few more links:

1. The new issue of XBox Magazine features Bioshock 2. Cover scan here, and more scans will be uploaded.
