Matsushita showed their prototype Gamecube at E3. Their unit is bigger than nintendo's and will support DVD video, vcds and audio cds. It is silver (shiny not matted) and it contains all of the main Gamecube hardware inside!! The official word from Matsushita is "Our hybrid digital audio visual product will be superior to PlayStation2."

Any PS2 Gamecube basher will be pleased to hear that, but if anyone who slagged off the PS2 for having too many gimicks sticks up for this, i'll slap them about. Personally, I feel that this should outsell the standard GCs and is a very good idea!!

The core processor is better in the GC and it is easier to program for, but in the right hands it could look wonderful, have you seen any of the latest herdy gerdy shots??

PS2 and GameCube specs should be the same, although PS2 is more complicated. In the right hands, it can perform wonders.

The price will be high and I don't think it looks as good as the original GC.

I don't need a DVD player I've got one and everyone has a CD player, so I will not be buying one of these but I shall be buying the GC!

Oh Yes
