I initially preordered the GCN - yes because even with the bundle it was $100 cheaper and I wanted Rogue Leader like Michael Jackson wanted Maculay Culkin. Then I kept hearing about Halo. I read everything I could get my hands on. Then played it. And loved it. I then thought about the...
sorry about that bro, but I gotta be honest - I thought the missions were better early on in the game. Id rather work for the Italian mob than the Yakuza anyway.
DLPs do not suffer from burn-in.
LCDs do, to a point, but the process is reversable.
CRTs - you better believe it.
Sorry - if this seems like a stupid question - but what do those mean?
I know this is all Would've, Could've, Should've but...
not having EA was a big disappointment. I think that if EA had supported the Dc strongly from the getgo, and if Namco would have brought some more games over (Soul Caliber is still IMHO the best DC game) and if we had some more Sega games...
Can anyone see Nintendo getting out of the Harware business if the GCN isnt successful?
Dont get me wrong I think that Nintendo will give the system 100%. But...
If the userbase of the X-box and PS2 is that much greater than the GCN, wouldnt it make sense for Nintendo to ditch the Hardware...
WELL... Enjoy your sega games then fellas. My intention was to show you what we DC owners have in store for us, and to let off a little steam. (nothing personal to anyone here)
Sega did do whats best for them, but that doesnt change the fact that they have cancelled some games that I was...
No Maybe we'd all be happier if sega supported their machines instead of just giving up when the competition gets tough. There should still be plenty of life in the DC.
And Nfl2k2 locks up on my DC (no other game does that and I play my DC quite a bit) It also did it when I brought it over to...
Just a funny letter I found on IGN.com.
I really admire what Sega has done to reward us DC owners for our loyalty. The DC was somewhat successful here in the USA - it flopped in Japan. And how do they reward us?
To our Sega fans,
First, I want to thank the legion of loyal Sega fans for...
I totally agree with you. I hated the new Zelda game the first time I saw it. But after seeing it in motion I think it will be really cool. (he still reminds me of Hermie from rudolph)
My local Gamestop has Halo in its Kiosk. My only initial gripe was that the levels were too dark. - I thought the brightness needed to turned up, then I realized that your character was equipped with a flashlight. Its pretty cool. I like the first level (running through your ship with...
My bad it was a 50'

Plus it would confuse alot of the parents out there. I still remember the crap my parents went through with the Goldstar 3DO because some idiot at Babbages told them it would only play half the games that the panasonic one did.
I think alot of Nintendos "kiddie" image was started when Mortal Kombat was released.
(who remembers NARC for the nes and that hampster you could explode in the microwave in the first few copies of Maniac Mansion?)
But then...
Remember the "blood" the genesis version had and the "sweat" the...
The "Fanboy" type I was referring to is someone who "at all costs" defends their chosen system. regardless of what they have seen/heard their system is better because:
They own it
They preordered it
They want to own it
I own a PS2, Preordered a GCN, and will be trying to score an X-box at...
ok - Im gonna post this BEFORE I read the othert responses.
(Good topic BTW Calvin)
1. Sony
Just because your on top now - doesnt mean your gonna stay there. Your system (spec wise) is the weakest of the bunch. So you definetly need the killer apps. Securing Final Fantasy was a good move...
I went into best buy yesterday to get Sworfish on DVD. I almost walked out with a 53in Toshiba HD TV theaterwide.
They have a sale going on today use your BestBuy card and get 10% off. The price was 2300.00 so i figured it would be about that with tax. Man that was tough not to buy it.
I...
OMG - I cant belive I forgot about the Need For Speed GUY!
"So what do ya want a hero biscut?"
He was the most annoying thing Ive seen in a game, and I loved that version because of him. I got the PS version about a year later - the graphics were better but I couldnt figure out why I didnt...
I have some close friends who are dedicated fanboys. They would like to see The X-box/PS2/GCN fail.
What is everyone elses opinions?
Loyalty to 1 system reminds me of a movie I saw called the "Bronx Tale".
In the movie there is a little boy who loves Mickey Mantle and has his baseball cards...
DAMN YOU TROY!!!!!
Now I have to add NFL Fever to my list!!!!!
Is it really that good?
How's the AI?, what about the play calling - like madden or NFL2k1?
Did you see how extensive the franchise mode was?
Sorry for the 20 questions but that was a game I was teetering on.
Any info would be...
Actually I dont think you screwed up any "moment", but you are absolutley right - it all depends on the programmers. There are some games out there that look like psx games, and then you see something like Devil May Cry or MGS2 and your jaw drops!
Its all about the games.
According to imdb
In the middle of the film's initial release, to keep interest going, Ivan Reitman had a trailer run, which was basically the commercial the Ghostbusters' use in the movie, but with the 555 number replaced with a 1-800 number, allowing people to call. They got a recorded...
Ok so does all this mean that if I buy an Hd pack I can use my optical cable for my DTS system (just like on the back of my PS2) and my componet cables?
Do you think that all 3 systems will do well?
Which one will do best?
I do think that the industry can support all 3.
The Dark Horse however will be the X-box. If Microsoft does this thing right - they can steal a huge share of the market away from Sony and Nintendo. (remember how alot of...
Halo is the reason I'm buying an X-box.
Rogue Leader is the reason I'm buying a Cube.
And games like MGS2 and GTA3 are reasons I bought a Ps2
(then again I bought a 3DO for Madden and a jag for Aliens Vs Predator)
