Ive just been looking at the release charts and so far there isnt really anything extravagant to look forward to on the cube for next year. The only things that have a little sparkle are f zero and soul calibur but even these arnt blockbusters.

The new mario game looks patheic and to be honest after the last one i am really dam sick of mario now. Mario kart looks like a laugh but at the end of the day thats all it is! a laugh a p*ss around for when people come round ya house. it aint got outstanding gameplay or a gripping story line!

All the games on the release charts just look bland and repetetive. I can clearly say that weve seen it all before just without the slightly enhanced graphics.

The only thing i can safely say that i trust will be good is rogue leader 3 and still that looks a little repetetive and the third person levels dont look up too much!

Lets be serious here, the only game that has really made it big on xbox is HALO! nothing has come close. One of the only reasons why mymate still has his xbox is because he is waiting for HALO 2! he hasnt actually got any other games! Has rare actually produced any titles for xbox yet?

The GameCube has more top exclusive titles worth owning than any other console. When you consider the head start the PS2 had I think we can safely say that the GameCube will be around for a while yet.

There's been rumours for nearly 7 years about Nintendo's demise but it just hasn't happened.

Proud to be a Nintendo game: Zelda WW, Mario Sunshine, Pikmin, Eternal Darkness and Metroid Prime AT LEAST.

Proud X-box games: Panza dragon (sorta), Halo, Project Gotham and Jet Set Radio Future. AT LEAST.

Proud PS2 games: GTA3, Metal Gear Solid 2, Ico and really that's about it.

Each console has it's amazing games but Nintendo have more than it's fair share.

If there were more, they'd try harder to win GADs... ;-)

You're all forgetting the big year! 2012! There's nothing planned by any of the games companies for then (except for Fifa 2012)

I think the world is doomed.
