Today, Ziff Davis has announced that they will be stopping the publication of Official Playstation Magazine after the January 2007 issue.

Scott McCarthy, the President of Ziff Davis Game Group had this to say about the announcement,

“Ziff Davis has had a great run with Official U.S. PlayStation Magazine for the past nine years. We are very proud of the magazine and its outstanding editorial team, and we’re obviously sad to see it go. Unfortunately, given where we are taking the Game Group, it doesn’t easily fit into our integrated media network or afford us digital media opportunities.”

According to Ziff Davis, the main reason for the closure is the company’s desire to expand further into the digital media industry.
