Yes, I can understand the attraction of having an E3 thread, but making many many threads about how "Nintendo is wonderful" and "E3 is wonderful" will is not good. Not good at all. Booyah.
My thorts:
3 Zelda pics aren't enough to get me moist.
The DS looks terrible. It looks like a small and rubbish laptop.
Madden looks nice though.
Sreets of Rage is our Queen.
Farewell.
Oh, and Memo: enough trolling.

I didn't provoke you, I was not even talking to you originally...and I would like to know how wishing for correct spelling to be used can be described as "sheer stupidity"
But it's Nash, what do you expect? He's special...

forgiven
(but I'm still getting excited about zelda)
Zelda OOT, Perfect Dark, the Gamecube - all felt even more special than they were because everyone had been anticipating them for years. Released without hype or speculation, Perfect Dark or OOT would be neither as successfull or well-loved. Anticipation of new games increases their personal value to the consumer tenfold.
Hidden gems are all well and good (Operation Flashpoint), but it is the anticipated games (Zelda OOT, Perfect Dark, Shenmue) that remain atop people's all time favourite lists.
For this reason I discount your naysaying and preceed to get excited about games that I won't play for another 6 months at least.

I was disappointed by numbers 1 and 3 because they were nowhere near as good as I was led to believe during the 'anticipation period' and it actually made them seem worse.
Indys don't count because the whole idea is not to count.
I liked Perfect Dark after all, and EVERYONE loved that.
And you dislike way more than "two things".
As I recall, you said that every supposedly good Gamecube game was rubbish, and that you were selling your cube.
Which is fine by me, as it's you who'll be missing out on these games which you refuse to anticipate.
