So, That was supposed to guarantee N64 LOTS of great games right? WRONG...nintndo lost the last console war didn\'t they. But if the casual gamer was to go by your "hypothesis" then the N64 would have reigned supereme though. Was nintendo not known for great games?? Yes they were. I guess the casual gamer is not as stupid as you think. Casual gamers DO the research dude....and they will to see that xbox has some great games ..."including" the tony hawk game you talked about above;)
apart from the fact that they didnt lose, they actually did pretty well...but Nintendo screwed up big time, and released a console way too late. PSX was lucky, it came in at the right time when the industry needed another console, and gathered a lot more developer support than Nintendo and the \'Ultra 64\'
by the time N64 was released, PSX was gathering a great reputation for fun games and casual gamers started hooking in. Games like Resident Evil, Tekken, Ridge Racer etc...started PSx on its role so it had an early head start against its only competition...so far, this is happening again this generation...PS2 is in early, with similar titles, that compared to later generation titles are low quality, and its going against consoles released a LONG TIME after it, that are hyped up and dont have good reputations
more BS dude. I dont know anybody who has NOT heard of NBA2k2 OR NFL2k2. Most "casual gamers" have played them...and most casual gamers know they rock. This is regardless of the fact the console is not a success. People KNOW that those were great games. They been on the covers of magazines...they\'ve gotten GREAT scores in these magazines. And sega flooded MTV with comercials of these games. (sega sports had LOTS of comercials....dont even try to deny it.)
Dreamcast was a success in USA...not a success anywhere else. EA Sports will have its sports range on PS2 out way before it does on the other consoles, and way before sega does also..EA has a bigger reputation and casual fans know of it better than the Sega games
If these were must have games for you...you would find away to get them dude. Tell me that you are not getting MGS2 when it comes out cause you dont have the money and you are full of S***. You know and I know that you are going to find away to get it.
hahaha, actually, guess what....im
NOT getting MGS2....its funny that
but if i do encounter enough money i will get it...much like the other games that i want
We are looking at FIRST generation xbox titles that RIVAL that of SECOND generation Sony titles which MOST STILL have not come out. We all know the graphics are better even now. What do you think second generation xbox titles are going to look like? I\'m talking about xbox games that have been designed from the start to finish on FINAL XDK kits??? games that will use programing techniques that have YET to be used?? I sutter at the possibility.
i disagree...i dont think they look better than the best of what PS2 has to offer, based on videos ive seen off the net. XBox currently graphically, is disappointing me, sure the games look good, but they arent good enough...gameplay may be a different story however...and yes, i will like to see what games will look like developed entirely on XDK\'s...at the moment...we wont see will we. At the moment, i
believe that PS2 has the edge on graphics
Bottom line: EVEN though these games are not out yet...It LOOKS to me that ..First generation xbox games have completely lept over first generation Ps2 games and are being compared to second generation ps2 games. ALOT of these games have all ready surpassed second generation ps2 games graphically....and the game play is yet to be determined cause we have not played them yet.*cough*data*cough*
What do you think the second generation Xbox games will do?
And as for you Final Fantasy comments....I was not aware you worked for them, cause you comments are nothing more than wishfull thinking.
you didnt know...well, we learn something new everyday, im the head of PR
actually, Square officailly came out and said FFX and FFXII will be exclusive to PS2 (dont ask me to find a link, its common knowledge
) Square has officially stated that 23 games are being made for PS2, maybe more...how many games are officially announced for XBox....none...how many games are speculated to go to XBox...1...Final Fantasy 11...the online FF
Do you actually think that if xbox is successful....they will not develope for them? Do you actually think that if FFXI on xbox is a success....that square is gonna say:
"well, thast the only title we are gonna give them!"
"We dont mind missing out on millions of dollars!!"
Hell no....they aint going to say that and you know it. Bottom line: If FFXI is a success on xbox....you can go ahead and count the rest of the final fantasy series in for the xbox. To NOT do so..... is stupid. [/B]
good point...maybe you should tell Nacmo, Enix, Square, Konami, etc. etc. all the big developers the same thing...its funny how some consoles get exclusive game, when developers would make a lot more money if they went multiconsole
