Seriously. Those controllers are the best thing I've EVER used and the games are unbelieveable. Legends of wrestling and Who wants to be a Millionaire are the best games I've EVER played.

Yay me!

It's almost as bad as the guy that said "People that play on GC's don't know what they're missing".

Going by the rate of PS2 sales (even though its still more expensive in parts of the world - like the UK), not producing content for XBox or GC wont make much difference. If the market shares were equal, things would be different, but since PS2 soaks up so much of the market anyway, developers wont loose much by not producing for Xbox or GC.

True. However I'm more fussed about what I get out of my consoles than how well they sell or how other people enjoy them.

So, some of you not bothered about lack of online options in EA games on XBox + GC. Thats fine, but just remember, while you are not bothered about it, a lot of people will be. You can just imagine EA launching an all new game line up, but with online only on PS2. Possibly, EA might not even make the games for XBox or GC anyway.

As for Project Gothama and GT, there is a point that GT can get very boring on some of the long races and challenges. This is not so much an XBox Vs PS2 issue, but one type of car racer against another. Project Gotham is more Arcade, while GT is more life like (with the exception of lack of visible body damage - but thats the fault of the car manufacturers, not Sony or the PS2).

Exactly. Although I liked NFS on it. My road rash was too scratched to play. The controller was terrible, like a big CDi pad!

3DO? the only good thing about that was road rash, with all those wicked cut scenes.

I have to saay I like the look of GT4.

I like Bond games! Even the not so good ones.

It's a shame that EA are not going to support Live. But it is their loss.
