I would say their track record has been mixed since Goldenye. I thought that Perfect Dark, Conker, and Banjo Kazooie were great games. As for some of the others, well, not so great. Kip
Romey, great idea for a list. Glad to be back in the HTF. Haven't thought out a full top ten list yet, but I second virtually all of the above. RE dog, GOOD LORD I jumped! SC on the VGA; sweetness. Let me add a couple: 1. Tecmo Bowl: Seeing your reciever all alone on the bottom of your screen...
Boy, I leave you kids alone for a few weeks, and nothing changes! Leave Morgan alone. ;) Point is, as seems to be the case with most licences, the game is simply BAD. I for one would love to see a great martial arts game with Bruce Lee, but for now will simply enjoy Jann Lee in DOA3. More or...
I agree with Camp for the most part. You gain the most with games and televisions that support progressive scan. This is of course most obvious with the XBox and Gamecube.
It is worth noting that I've used my PS2 with both Monster s-video and component connections. With a game like FFX there...
Glad to see some graphic clarification taking place. Great graphics are about much more than polygon pushing power. It's really an art form unto itself. Regardless of the systems overall power, the best looking games inevitably come from developers with artistic vision and a unique ability to...
Well, for $3.00 you can't go wrong, but I hated the way the games AI cheated. No matter what you do, they are always right on your tail. There is ALWAYS a close finish.

If you're really after mostly sports games, then I would recommend the Dreamcast. For only $49.00 you get access to the best collection of sports games for any system. NFL2K, NBA2K, and Virtual Tennis 2 all of which, unlike the 'latest and greatest' consoles, can be played online. Sports gaming...
I didn't find the article biased or particularly pro Microsoft. I just didn't think it offered any real news. Sony has a huge lead and a big headstart. Microsoft is hoping for a big launch in Japan on the heels of a great US launch. Nintendo is relying on the release of its big name franchises...
Derrik:
The first thing I do in really tough battles is use haste (usually with Tidus) and protect (with Yuna) on the characters. This gives you a big advantage. Also, I make sure all my characters are in overdrive mode before the battle starts. With those tips, I was able to beat him without...
Nathan,
I'll be real interested to get your feedback, especially if you have experience with the NBA2K series. The Dreamcast games were the best NBA games ever. I've been holding off on picking up NBA2K2 for the PS2 until I saw the word on this game. The few reviews have been mixed, and...
I'm still (was) playing FFX. Over 100 hours now. Trying to get all the ultimate weapons, but I've finally accepted the fact that that is never going to happen. Pure torture.
I say "was" because I'm in the midst of a two week business trip and have no access to my consoles. :frowning: No fun...
I'm with you there Dave. I'm a Rikku man myself. :)
And you're right, the characters in the CG cut scenes are definitely more Asian than the in game characters.

Great Pieter,
I responed to your post in the meets section. Let's hope other SoCal gamers join in.
BTW: Nice use of your iTools home page! Always happy to know more gamers and Mac users. :)

I'm there Pieter. I'll bring the PS2 and the beer! For PS2 multiplayer let me suggest Twisted Metal Black or ATV Offroad Fury. I can bring both. Great multiplayer games. I've got a multitap and 4 controllers so we're set.
BTW: If you still need an XBox when the time comes I can bring that too...
