Resi fan made a fair statement so he deserves an explaning answer.

All of those (bar Square who would love to make games for Nintendo but Nintendo are stupidly telling them to sod off) are supporting the GC just as much as the PS2.

I hate to brake it to you but Capcom have actually said that they prefer the Cube over the station.

What you said was perfectly correct in the N64 vs PS situation but things have changed. Why?

The N64 was hard to make games for. The PS was easy.
Devellopers prefered the Playstation. Fortunately, Nintendo make first class games so this didn't spell the end of the N64.

Now the PS2 is incredibly difficult to make games for (10 times harder than the N64) while the Cube is nice and develloper friendly (more so than the playstation).

I forsee the Gamecube with better support this time and with Sony unable to make revolutionary games themself, this could cause the PS2 to fall.

Do you see?

Slik, are you saying that I think the PSX is better than the N64??????
If you are, you're trully mistaken.
Sony are the physical form of devils. Like Microsoft, they are only in this business for one reason - money (not that Nintendo don't like the stuff).
Also, I suggest you stop quoting me. My words of wisdom are too great for a 16-year-old/5-year-old to handle.

i though i would add something into the forum.......playstation fans...consider yourselves lucky!, you may not have even have a playstation let alone a PS2!....the console was designed for the japanese market only and sony at the time had no plans to release it outside of japan at all (hence the small pad, its designed for people with small hands and the japanese people arent really known for their hieght). i dont know exactly what changed thier minds, but they suddenly decided to release european and US playstations.....so think about it.....what would have happened if the playstation was never released here??, would the playstation 2 exist outside japan??

as most of you have noticed, im not fully for sonys consoles, as there are very games that grab my attention from either of them. i did own a playstation but i found that there were very few games that i actually liked...the ones i can remember was ISS pro 98, disruptor, time crisis, darkstalkers and maybe the odd one here and there. im not a fanatical person that would go out and destroy all of the units (like a friend of mine), but i merely wait until something grabs my attention from the PS2....so far i like GT3...and im interested in the re-hash of ghouls and ghosts that capcom are doing for it, the name escapes me righ now.........oh yes Maximo: ghosts to glory, thats the one...apart from that nothing really

ok heres something for you playstation 2 fans to answer

if the PS2 is so good then why did Sony send the PS2 dev kits out with Jap maulas to US and European games conpanies??......they didnt even bother to translate the manuals for the non jap developers.....and even the jap developers took 2 years to figure out how to anti- alias the graphics for the dam thing!!! (anit-alias = jagged lines on edges of graphics........I.E. the playstation on whole)

give a decent answer and you win a prize

oh another thing.....played GT3 today...i actually liked it...probably cos i was in my fav car (Dodge viper), but he fact remained it still look like it had jagged edges in places....doint get me wrong the graphics are quite nice, but the only game to my knoledge which has been succesfully anti-aliased was tekken tag, and even that was slowed down because of it......the PS2 is hard to develop for...trust me, my friend was beta testing for lionhead studios and he said that the lead programmer was constantly screaming at the PS2 dev kit they were sent cos of its messed up architecture

Do people just write these forums to get completely blown out of the water?


Sony are nowhere near as good as Nintendo - And THQ made WWF No Mercy!

Nintendo make the Mario/Zelda games etc.

I got for my 15th b-day, but c'mon who actually takes any notice of the certificates? exactly! they said that cbfd was an 18, got that as well! if you go into a place like Electronics Boutique and try to buy an 18 they'll just let you have it even if your 5 years underage! when it comes to selling the games shops don't care they just wan't to sell the game! except for woolworths but their just crap!
