The title was so dull I added Plus on to the end of it to spice it up! The post is about the GBA so if you don't care about the GBA then go away, go on , get lost!
Let me first say the GBA is stunning with a capital S (although it wasn't in capitals). er-no informs me that the GBA is getting Street Fighter X3 I mean is this a dream? Look at it, it is tiny!
Now this is about it's distant future, oh yeah we are already blown away by Mario Kart, Tony Hawks and Street fighter (Zone of Enders looks preety snazzy aswell) but what about the games we don't know about erm lets call this game Game X (I'm sure Microsoft will make a Game X).
The Carts (at the moment) can reach a wopping 256 MB and for those who look at that, grin and pretend to know what it means it is the size of Zelda!!! We know it can do Isemetric which is a sort of 3-D and we know it can do better 2-D games than the Playstation!
Now then Game X could have a promising future, lets say Game X is a RPG/Adventure game involving an elf boy who has a fairy and tries to save a princess against an evil pig. Now this can use Isemetric graphics and be as big as a 60 hour long game!!!! Now that is interesting. Lets hop back in time (not too far) to GBC's Alone in the Dark, now ok it has no PS graphics but for a mini NES that game blew me away! Now lets times that by 4 (8 bit times 2 = 32 bit) and we start to realize the potential our little beauty has in store for us.
How hard can they push this machine, well they haven't even begun to scratch the surface yet and the potential of this machine is like a fruit pastle in your mouth ready for developers to bite and release it's fruity flavour! The future is bright the future is whatever your GBA colour is.

I can't find them and i don't know the names erm i'll give them to you tonight as i can't be bothered now but you could pop to your local newsagent open the N64 mag on the GB pages and see them!
I bet they're mocks, but let's have a link anyway.
Actually the Doom ones arent amazing but the two other first person shooter certainly are as shown in N64 magazine absolultey georgeous, smooth and detailed!!!!!!!!!
I know.
Well, I may hav lost but not through my own fault. I decided it wasn't worth arguing as I was blatently mis-informed. OK, so it can do 3D. Pretty crap though, ain't it?

Very good but i meant lose.
No one will ever see me loose, as I am T-total.
This should go down in history as the day Turbonutter lost an argument!
I've never seen you loose, too obviously!

OK, I stand corrected. I tell you, there is some duff information flying around these days. It's a bit crap at it though! I wouldn't call it "superb" by anyone's standards.
