So,since it\'s not on DR or IGN,then it\'s fake?

 I\'m sending a letter to IGNCube tonight. I\'ll ask them to comment or confirm this.

Nintendo likes things done their way and there way only, they tend to attract the younger kids in hope that they will grow up liking their system longer.  Eh-Eh, I grew up, I switched to Sony.  Smart move.  PS2 has been out 4 months, and it already has more RPG\'s then Nintendo.  Can someone tell me why Nintendo would neglect RPG\'s?

I plan on getting gamecube as well, only because It has potential.  It\'s getting RE0, and another great game that I can\'t think of right now.

Square losses a lot of money


well, Linky, i havent got the actual figures, but i find it hard to believe a company with the popularity and sales of square, plus the fact that Sony are paying for everything they want them to, will actually be losing money

What do any of us know about the Gamecube?  Not too damn much.  What if Nintendo is requiring everyone to remain silent until E3.  If anyone knows how to do it, it\'s Nintendo.

It\'s a big possibility and the most likely.

And remember, we still have E3 and Space World before the launch of the Gamecube.

I believe they are loosing money right now, but it\'s mainly because of their multi-multi-multi-million dollar movie.

I don\'t care about Square anyway, but their money "problems" are only temporarily.
RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRAPETIME!

Didn\'t Sony invest a lot of money in the Final Fantasy movie.
If so Square would be stoopid to make games for other consoles at this time,big brother Sony would be royally pissed off.

But if there was a universal console then the developers wouldn\'t need to make quality games.  They would have no competition so wouldn\'t need to make better and better games and hardware.

So a universal coinsole would be a BAD IDEA

not really - there would be more competition

the developers of games would have to compete with a wider range of others for the best selling game of their genre

thus making  games a lot better quialty - hence why some developers are gonna have to do better since sega is one now

the more developers on one system means more competition- you don\'t see PS2 developers competiting with the game ShenMue becuase that game is on a different system and therefore have to worry about it taking sales from the PS2 games
