Hmmmmmm.

Konami are cool, didn't they make Operation Winback? That was good.

Oh and Hybrid Heaven was VERY nice.

Shame MGS2 was a pile of regurgitated toss, but you can't win them all.

Tangent? I was merely pointing out that Konami don't dominate geners.

Oh and as we know from the PS2, popular doesn't mean decent. They have "popular" games within genres but the amjority of gamers would purchase a piece of sh*t with the PS2 logo on it.

Konami <> Capcom, what does that have to do with anything?

If you're intent on going off on a tangent:

Konami don't dominate genres.... hmmm what the hell is Bemani? Oh yes, it's a genre Konami created. What was one of the best RPG series of the last 10 years, oh yeah... Suikoden. What are the most popular arcade machines of the past few years... Silent Scope and Fighting Mania.. hmm, Konami games. Who developed that GBA game that revolutionised gameplay... Boktai? Oh yeah, Konami.

I can't even begin to describe how this statement makes you look. You're not normally such a spacker Dringo, even if you are a total zealot. Aside from anything else, it's total hypocrisy considering your support for Nintendo.

Ahh right.

As for Darwock, Konami are no better than Capcom, Capcom for me have the best games in the majority of popular genres. Konami don't even have the top stealth game anymore when it comes down to it, yes I enjoy Metal Gear more than most games but as a stealth game it has been destroyed by other similar titles that actually focus on stealth. Come to think of it, outside of Pro Evolution Konami really don't dominate geners in anyway shape or form.

Fair enough. Though I don't fill the forums with that much whining, and the top 10 seems like a reasonable place to start for someone who can't be bothered looking through vast back catalogues, incase there's a hidden gem. So please don't generalise about me :^p

One of your most anticipated games hasn't had a lot of press? Fair enough, but I liked the latest Topgun game. One person's opinion doesn't make a game great. I've had to reluctantly admit that :^)
