"Nintendo vs XBOX vs Playstation"

As most hardcore gamers know there are 3 main consoles that are owned throughout the world. These are Playstation, XBOX and the loveable Gamecube but which 1 do you personally think is the best 1 around?

They're all equally dull.

Retro is the safest bet these days.

With tales of symphonia and with most RPG's you can't expct a decent multiplayer because all you can do in RPG's with your friends is either battle them using your own characters or play co-operation, but with tales of symphonia the co-op is pretty good, but not the best. But as they said it's an add-on.

I may get Prime 2 when/if it eventually goes Players Choice (like I'll be doing with F-Zero GC) but it certainly doesn't make me feel all excited at the prospect of playing it...Best Metroid I've had the chance to play so far is Metroid: Zero Mission

There's a lot of collecting in the new one.

I was impressed with the first prime but other than the main game I didn't feel the desire to return to it.

Especially after the game deleated itself (or my brother did it, either way).

I hear the multiplayer is good, some of the new "special moves" like the cannon ball was built specifically for multiplayer. They enjoyed it so much the incorperated it into the main game.

It's the part of Prime 2 I am most looking forward too.

P.S. I know Pikmin 2 has multiplayer. Just not my kind of thing.

Wasn't too keen on first release for each, although I'd deffinately be willing to play both if I have the oppertunity.

That's another title I'm slightly interested in.

To be honest I'm more of a coop/multiplayer guy myself so if Primes multiplayer is anything more than a crappy add in I'll probably get it.

Speaking of coop, isn't it about time they released a Mario & Luigi coop game.

Well I'm glad to see you interested in Paper Mario 2...

But Donkey Konga's going to be really good fun...

And I thought we were all looking forward to Pikmin and 90% of us can't wait for Prime.

What about tales of Symphonia???

The only one that slightly interests me there is Paper Mario 2.

However theres at least 5 good games I want next year.

There is always this talk around the summer/end of summer...

We had a great start, a crap middle... but PAper Mario 2, Pikmin 2, Metroid Prime 2 and Donkey Konga should liven up the next 3 months.
