Yeah!!!!!!GAMEBOY ADVANCE RULZ BUT THE GAMES Dont take advantage!!WHERES THE 32bit wotsumacallit processor power being hidden??Where the full polygon mipmapped z-buffered, quake clones??..No where is the sad answer, games like GT championship ..ok they do have perfectly good gameplay...But its not the spectacular eye candy one expected having just shelled out on the worlds most advanced handheld gaming system.On the 2D front we have the BEAUTIFUL Rayman Advance, and the mario series but come on people this is stuff a SNES could do if it really wanted to, WE WANT 3D, WE WANT POLYGONS.I rest my case...
If anyone feels they've got to correct my misguided thoughts, or indeed add a few more points to my brilliant observations,--->email me: [email protected]

Everyone thinks that because it hasn't got as much power as new consoles like the PS2 it's not very good, now the people that read this will disagree, but you all know the truth, people hate this machine, the reason why is because it's new and because it hasn't made as much of an impact as the bigger consoles.
It's a great little thing, you can sit in the back of the car on a long travel and play the same games you play in your bedroom.
it's in full colour, it's small than the GBC and it plays better games with more power! what could you want out a fully portable games console?
your right, it's not at it's peak yet, but the PS2 has only just started releasing good games, that show off it's full power.
does anyone know what it's full power is, and when it's used, will you notice? I don't think so, if you have fun, it's worth it's money, if it works well with the GC like Nintendo say it will, then my £90 will have been spent well, I mean, come on people! it's £80 now! the GBC is £50! and the GBA games are played the same amount of power that PSone games are played on!
madness.
