Since nobody seems happy with the Xbox...

The xbox really is a good,,solid system with huge potential you guys should really give it a chance.

Heh i know what you mean. Solid....you do mean in size and weight right?

Fate, Project Ego, Panzer Dragoon 4, Mortal Kombat 5, Malice, The Matrix, Genma Onimusha, Ridge Racer Xbox, and Dino Crisis 3 off the top of my head.

it\'s quite sad that the main "killer" aps (Project Ego, Malice)  are only launching then.. I am glad I don\'t and didn\'t have that problem with my PS2. As for the games for PS2 after may - can\'t tell you any besides FFXI, The Getaway, Outcast 2 - but seing how PS2 is gettin\' better by the month, I am sure the developers have some nice suprises for second half of 2002.

Boy I wish..

Ginko, come one--don\'t you think your review of the xbox lineup is a little biased?  Halo A+, DOA3 A+, Fever A, Munch A+, Dark Summit B-?  Halo is a great game but it has problems (and I haven\'t even played it that much).  It\'s not perfect.  Munch is not that good.  It\'s boring and repetitve--no where near an A+.  Dark Summit is absolutely terrible.  I haven\'t played Fever.  DOA3 is great though.

Who cares how heavy the xbox is?  Give it up.

It\'s quite sad how biased you are.  The main killer aps and the reason most people bought the xbox is Halo and DOA3, not PE and Malice.  The main reason people bought the PS2 is FF, Tekken and MG.

Sony has a lead now, but relitively speaking, the Genesis had the same lead when the more powerful SNES was released.  It took time, but the SNES eventually won.  This by no means indicated that the xbox will come from behind, but you can\'t count it out either.

For once, I agree with Watchdog almost 100%.

I don\'t think the Xbox will ever take the lead though.  There is just too much going against them for them to be that successful.

If you have an extra 20 minutes or so, give my thread a read. I am not disappointed at all. I thought all the launch titles woud suck or be average, but the ones I have playe and gotten have turned out great!

Which thread are you talking about? I only see three of them without scrolling too far down (BTW mm..., Damn you Sony!, and Wowzas!). I have played Halo, Munch\'s Oddysse (sp?), Halo, and NFL Fever. The only one that really stood out was Halo.

This is what I have been trying to say all along.

I don\'t care what console becomes number one, just that I play it when I get it. I don\'t know when I will get a GameCube, but it will be when I actually have a desire to play it. I keep hearing about games that have framerate and washout problems on GC and would like to have a little more of everything before I get it.


read the thread entitled "try and pry it"

Gamespot:
"The frame rate bogs down whenever you\'re taking a look at a large section of complex geometry--the Los Angeles, Tokyo, and Skater Island levels are the worst offenders here. Some sections of Tokyo cause the frame rate to drop rather drastically. In a game that is so dependent on timing, these frame drops can really interfere with the gameplay. To give those of you who haven\'t seen other versions of the game a point of reference, the PlayStation 2 version only rarely slows down, and when it does, the drop isn\'t enough to truly interfere with your timing. For those of you trying to decide between the two versions of the game, the GameCube version also looks slightly washed-out when compared to the PS2\'s vibrant colors."

What Game Exactly is this

And it all comes down to the talent of the developers and porters. Clearly Gamespot is talking about one game. Sheesh, Bespin in Rogue Leader can run at 60 fps and its displaying the entire fricken city.

sony is established, almost everyone has one, who is gonna go out and buy a 3 hundred dollar machine that they get to play in wal-mart for half an hour waiting for there wife to get done shopping.

Nintendo was established, almost everyone had one, who is gonna go out and buy a $350 machine (Playstation 1) that they get to play in Wal-Mart for half an hour waiting for their wife to get done shopping?

While you\'re under the bridge, give our regards to your fellow shmucks.
