i've seen many letters in many magazines complain about the number of sequels on the playstations. I'm just wondering if these people are complaining about Metal Gear Solid 2 coming out because that's a sequel.
The fact is there's nothing wrong with sequels as long as they do actually change. Something like the Final Fanatsies are good sequels seeing as the game totally changes with a new cast and new areas to explore and nearly everything changes.
However something like the Tomb Raider series are not good sequels. Most of the tomb raider games are "ooooh look Lara can now jump and do an inward pike into the water" something which hardly effects the gameplay. another major culprit is the fifa games. who put a few new leagues in and claim it's a whole new game.
sequels like this give the true proper sequels like MGS2 and GTA3 a bad name. as long as the game is varied enough from it's original and has many more improvements than it doesn't matter if it's got a 2 or a 1000 in front of it you should still buy it.
i mean i would rather have a great game like MGS2 come out even though it's a sequel than have a mediocre original games come out. fact is developers are looking to make money if they hit on an idea everyone likes they're not going to say "oh we won't do another one it won't be original" they'll make another in the series to try and get even more money as they know it should sell well

I hope that Pro Evo soccer can live up to the expectations
yes it does, they were lazy with the ps2 version, the graphics are blocky!, shocking
To be honest, i never got a chance to play them on N64. My mate tells me they are nothing compared to the Evo games though.

I knew that that means then the guys who made it don't know anything about football in fact the players didnt even look like the real ones it is a nightmare seeing those faces when they score, they are ugly.
really it was just a

Does that mean that the N64 versoins were all crap like this?

Just wait for Pro Evo.

ISS 2000 is the worst ISS ever, all the power of the PS2 and those guys coudn't make a decent game even Iss Pro Evo2 on the PSone is far much better than this one but I'm sure Pro Evo is much better.
