You got to have respect for a company which will not bow to 'style over content' tactics. Which relies on quality games over 'cookie cutter' crap and is so damn pig-headed that it's way is the right way that it actually deserves some kind of strange respect.

I just felt like saying that.

*Cough*FANBOY*cough*

Rickoss shut up now before you make yourself look anymore of an idiot (if that's possible).

I may post a list of upcoming Xbox games but there's really no point since I'm dealing with a total Fanboy.

Oh whoopdee doo, a remake of an overrated piece of crap, even with the Eternal Darkness team behind it, that doesn't mean it's good (:-P).

The fact that I already have about 5 games pre-ordered and I'm still frantically looking for more money proves that there are way more than three. Nintendo has one of the strongest XMas line-ups ever, even without Pikmin 2, MGS and FF: CC, Crystal Chronicles is probably going to be the only quality one of those three anyway.

Microsoft, on the other hand, don't have a strong XMas line-up.

Rickoss: saying you're not a fanboy doesn't make it true. :P

Oh come on, about 50 Tactical shooters, a handful of quality titles and Buffy.

I can only think of 3 cube games I want by the end of the year.

Mario Kart
F-Zero
Custom Robo 2

Every other multiformat title will be using a helpful harddisk save system unless it has extras on the cube version. Simple practicality.

Although Pikmin 2 and Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes will suck. Sadly.

I can honestly say there aren't enough quality XBox games i can see to warrant a purchase. I've been meaning to get one for a while, and was thinking about one for XMas, but looking at its back catalogue of games, it's pathetic in comparison to the Cube's.

Looking hrough I can only see about 10 I'd really want, yet there are at least 25+ GameCube games that appeal to me a lot, along with a great upcoming line-up. I've thought of the XBox's line-up as weak, but when I really look it is.

And no, this isn't me being a fanboy; I buy consoles if I think they're the best out, not on reputation.
