I HAVE BEEN SO BLIND! It's all Microsoft, Sony and the lizard people. Now where the hell is David Ike when you need him? (Bill Gates does look like a toad)

I didn't know Microsoft snuck into the PS2 factories and secretly installed nasty chips inside PS2's . . .

So, it seems people are bright enough to buy the odd qaulity title on PS2, but not bright enough to see all those great titles on GameCube. Could it be all those quality GC titles are not anything special at the end of the day? If PS2 can get to it's market leading position on 1 quality title a month, then by the same measure, GC (with it's many quality games a month) should be stormin the console market and easily in front.

It is true the playstation has always been buried in mediocre crap. It has good games but the ratio of 'good games compared to crap' is very high in favour of crap.
