On America's CNN it was announced the Shiggy Miyamoto was involved in a car crash. His condition was listed as critical.
There is nothing solid yet but there was a huge discussion on the IGN boards people claiming they saw it on TV.

My sentiments go out to him.

GT3 is to slow, GT2 is a great game definatlt compared to GT3.

Omega Boost, that was a good game, but it was a bit tedious when you couldn't save after a mission, so you had to do it all again.

But that's it Fish-e. The list doesn't go on, at least whilst Sony's been around.

By the way, you seem to be forgetting Kazunori Yamuchi, creator of such classics as GT, GT2, GT3 and Omega Boost.

What is the ponit of buying a cosole that only has one great designer??? Well there isn't any.

Wow Hideo Kojima the maker of such games like ZOE, MGS MGS2 and... what else is there???

Shiggsy, the creator of such games like Zelda: The Ocarina of Time, Zelda 2: Majora's mask, Mario 64 and the list goes on.

What great companies do Sony have??

What great Companies do Nintendo have???

I do have an open mind. I did actually have an N64 once. I had Mario 64, Zelda 64 OOT Banjo-Kazooie and Extreme-G. Of the 4 Extreme-G was my favourite. I spent a bit of time on B-K and a bit more on Zelda.

As for Mario, well I put the cartridge in once, played it for about 2 hours then got extremely bored and put it back. I just think that it's crap. I think Zelda's crap. Well, not really crap just not very good. It was entertaining for a while but I wouldn't be able to the end. Banjo's music was so awful and the gameplay was so simplistic I stopped playing it so all I had left was Extreme-G. This I found quite entertaining and it was a damn sight better than the other 3.

You can't go calling me biased and small minded because I have actually experienced all these games for quite a long time.

It's better to have an open mind though.

Nice one Ant.

In my opinion Kojster makes much better games than Shigsy, and that's why I bought a PS2.

You can try and prove me wrong but that's what I think and that's what I'll think until the day I die.

Oops, Turbo was wrong. :)

Anyway, Fish-e, what does Mario rule?? The Land Of Boredom perhaps??

The Land Of Annoying Italian Plumbers Who Are Made By Shiggsy Who Is Not As Good As Kojima?? {:)

He didn't prove me wrong Ant... you should know that... ;0)

Mario Kart 64, was utterly, utterly, awful. I'm going to make you download a SNES emulator Ant. :0)

And possibly some roms.

Mario Kart 64 is probably my fav, but that was nothing special.

Hmmm...I struggle to find something Shiggsy has made that I really liked! I prefer Kojima by far, but that's just my opinion.

Oh, and well done Turbo. {:D
