It is just me or is the Game cube and Nintendo as we know it going to be crushed by the X-Box. There is no hope in hell that it could compete. For years Nintendo has been producing consoles. Starting with the NES all the way to the Gamecube with Gamboys on the way. Their only fault is their quality of games. What's with all the cartoon game like Pokemon and Zelda. Nearly every game that is popular on the Nintendo has been cartoonified. Are computer cartoons taking over consoles?

This is where the X-Box takes over. Microsoft have no worry in launching their first console. Most of the games that will be released on the launch date has been released before on the PC and Playstation and have done well. The Playstation 2 managed to keep the cartoons away but it doesn't quite do it for me.

I have had and N64 since it first came out and through my time with it, i've found it quite hard to find a game with good, serious graphics. I want my game heroes to have names like Terminator and Razor. Not Pikachu and Conker. It's just like childrens TV nowadays too! Do you remember when you were little and you had your favourite cartoons. I remember MASK, Thundercats and He-Man. They all has giant robots, bad guys, fast cars and guns! What do they have nowadays? Furry little fluffballs with silly names. That includes the Teletubbies however cool Dipsie is! Erm...anyway if the Game Cubes is all cartoons and classic labels, I don't want to know about it.

New gaming ideas, less cartoonified games and violent children's TV programs is the idea that i leave you with. So if the Game Cube does turn out like every other Nintendo console, i advise you to "say no to Nintendo". I won't even mention Dreamcast but buy an X-Box!

And no doubts they'll release a VGA box thing, so that you can connect your X-Box to your computer monitor. Ooooo wouldn't that be great! 2 PC's!

Pahhh! I for one ain't gonna waste me hard earned cash on an X-Box!
