GO USA, LONG LIVE THE X-BOX
« on: January 09, 2001, 01:35:00 PM »
First of all I am a gamer I could give a care for screwy fan loyalty. Who cares which system is concidered the best franky its the games that count. I own a great PC that I love along with my ps2 and DC. I love them all and I am going to love the X-box as well. So what if the japanese or any one else hates american products thats too bad for them. They are closed minded anyway and have greater loyaltys to thier products than americans. That might seem like a bad thing but to them it is survival. Maybe they are jealous that finally an american console is a real threat to thier change pocket or that an american machine can achieve a frame rate of 300 fps. Who cares what they think when they see it they will want it no matter what. This is a great day for gamers, american gamers. Long live all great gaming systems including the DC. Just play the game. Love it or leave it!

it matters alot, it will mean you will only see ports from other consoles beacuse its the best way to make money. Almost all games come from japan, and if that country does not like your console, it does not bid well for the console. Plus, the x-box brings about no innovation or creativity such as past consoles have, I have no excitement towards the hype-box whatsoever and it will fail horribly in japan, yes that is my prediction but its a wait and see thing. You must also remember that not everybody can afford all consoles, and must therefore pick the best one for their tastes, and this does bring about some good compeition.

Ports tend to ummm NOT sell well. Dreamcast gets PS2 ports from capcom all the time with Extra stuff. And they NEVER ever reach the top 10. We\'ll see how well Xbox does. The Japanese are already pissed off.

O sweet jesus pc gaming rocks. xbox will be better in sports,first person shooter and and strategy. Sony  needs to get an actual broadband service besides some slow ass  3rd party modem.

see all you *****es were raging on dc modem now its there turn,they got the broadband you don\'t.

only thing ps2 can one up xbox in is traditonal rpgs but i haven\'t seen that many on ps2 or in the
near future.

heres to hoping final fantasy gets rid of that magically sucking you in every few feet you walk and actuly has the enemys showing.

to there are ways to give the illusion of AA,without having to take cuts in performance,and some developers are are taking advantage of themhowever ,until SOny comes up with a specific and easy ways to implement true AA that dosent take major hits on performance,you probably wont be seeing a huge number of games take advantage of it.

Jiggs There are a ton of reasons to dislike Microsoft beyond them being American. I don\'t mind MS and the Xbox and will probably pick one up someday, but under 0 circumstances do I want Xbox to dominate, it would be a huge step backwards and send a message to console makers that I\'d rather not see.

that message would be "Lets just make our consoles out of PC components". Gamecube has done it with Mac based PowerPC processor and ATI GPU, Xbox uses a PIII and Nvidia GPU.

I\'ll be supporting Sony the most for this reason alone, say what you will but its the hardware that opens up the possibilites to innovation,

I most likely will pick up that 2nd console and I will wait to see which one truly offers what I want Xbox or GC, most likely it will be Xbox

YOU NAZTI CONSOLE BASTARD! Whoa thats a bit harsh dont you think? I will remember that when I am playing GT3 and Drakan 2(The first one was awesome!) Thanks. Hamster I do Believe everyone is closed minded to something and in this case I believe the Japanese are closed minded to american gaming intrests. For example the Japanese resistance of American PC\'s which would promote PC gaming over there and would help american developers here is non-existent.(Ps2 is suppose to fill that nitch) Sony now is making PC\'s available here in mass numbers they see the potential. Everquest anyone? They are covering all bases. However when an american based company(MS not withstanding, but who else in the US could pull this off?) trys its hand in the gaming world is hated and shot down. PC gaming is big in europe and we get games like Sea Dogs(Russian) and Longest Journey(Swedish) dont forget Ground Control. They could help us out a little more dont you think? The Japanese are great game makers but we are getting better all we need is a chance.

It\'s true unfortunatly, it is true that Japanese people hate American products. ANd dont say it is because they are better products because that is simply not true.

I would love to see X-Box do well in all areas, dominating overall with ANY console will be bad. I would love to see X-Box beat everything slightly in Japan so that the Japanese could get a real taste of American products and not have everything fail (al la Atari anything).

Actually the Japanese love Nike

and they dig McDonalds, and have lots of Denny\'s. There is a Ford Manufacturing plant in Hiroshima although I never actually saw many if any Fords on the road. I did see a Harley Davidson in Nagoya, the dude spent a ton importing the thing

They are more patriotic towards there own products, but thats changing.
