Why are you so angry?

lmao Racer exactly what titles does Australia get first that make it so great?

I talk to bobby hardware and gradman 24/7 when they\'re on and they are my best friends on the net. they both live in the Brisbane/Melbourne area and we always talk about how Australia and Europe gets horribly ****ed on release dates.

but hey man...if your happy with the release dates Australia gets then great.

two months ahead of Europe, and probably at least 6 months ahead of the US.

Yes, Australia is just so small and insignificant... Thats why we get big AAA games first...

I guess I\'ll do Altered\'s job on this one, see\'ing as he passed the chance up....

DOUBLE STANDARD ALERT

Helllllllo? Why are you so happy about getting Wipeout Fusion first if you hate it? You do hate it right? Let me check, yep you made a thread about how you hated Fusion.. Yet, you never changed your signature and now you\'re proclaiming it to be a big AAA title and you\'re so glad how OZ got it first.

Make up your mind, Racey.

that was a stupid move from them, xbox sells good. In some cases better than GC.

And knotter, do you think that xbox is going to sell here in holland, they made the same blunder like sony did with the ps2 launch, selling it for 1099 guilders. I wonder if stored like bart smit are going to carry the system, since they didn\'t with the DC I fear for the worst

Well, Metal_Gear_Ray....
I read the PU report on the XBOX presentation in
Amsterdam and PU was positive about. They were
surprised by the sceptical attitude from others on
XBOX.
So imo it\'s 2fold ; the Dutch press loves it, but XBOX
is maybe \'ver van m\'n bed show\' for the average Jan Lul.
I know some hardcore PC gamers, where I live. They keep
on saying how XBOX kicks PS2\'s ass all the time, but when
puntje comes to paaltje they say they\'re stickin\' with their
PC ! How\'s that for a double standard ? LOL
The other thing ; Bart Smit, Dixons, hey maybe even Intertoys
will have XBOX\'s, imo. The DC affair was all about Atoll Soft
screwing up. It wasn\'t Sega\'s personal fault, they just picked
bad in choosing their DC distributer. Anyways if you wanna
read my thoughts on Sega in Holland, read my last reply in
Troglodyte\'s thread "I finally did it..."
But my personal opinion is that the Gamecube will do better in the
Netherlands, just because Holland is N land and it\'ll be cheapo at
599 DFL (or somethin like that - I don\'t know it in Euro\'s ).
Greetz, Knotter8:cool:

I went for one double standard over the other. They are both equally jackassy, but the one I picked makes more people feel stupid rather than just one.

I agree with you about Europe . We do have late release dates, but not only that.... we also get often worse games. Many games is 50hz, some are not even the complete version of the game (Latest game that happened to was TWB, with no story line and some gameplay elements gone). The European Playstation market have always been BAD.
The DC was a LOT better, we got the games the way they should be. Even though the release dates was later there too.
Now, Im considering to buy an NTSC PS2.

There\'s always Toys R Us. There a bigger TOY seller then KMart. Kmart deal alot more in clothing.

well it wont fail but they better get those exclusive titles cranking because titles like mgs final fantsay silent hill gt3  grand theft auto the ps 2 is killing the soft ware wars x box will be a sucess but it needs the soft ware right now owning a x box is like ownining a ferari with no gas its pretty but dam it aint no fun
