The "General Games Chat" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
I get constantly annoyed over at the Nintendo forum with people moaning about how the GameCube has been delayed. Do you people not realize how lucky you are? Get saving, the good times will be rolling soon and you get to take part in the fun bit, anticipation and speculation! Itís like Christmas, the day its self is almost always an anti-climax, but youíre okay with that because youíve had a great time preparing for it and have dreamy fantasies in your head about how great itís going to be. Basically, when Christmas comes around youíre so tired form getting ready for it, youíre just happy to sit back, relax and let it pass you all by.
The forum has gone strangely quiet ñ why? This, right now, is the most exciting part of the next generation of consoles ñ before any games have been launched. Weíve been blessed with the powers of speech and the kind folks at Special Reserve are providing us with the medium to communicate those ideas with. However, we are blatantly ignoring the privilege bestowed on us, and insulting our beneficiaries. Posts for the last 24 hours are in danger of falling below the 1000 mark ñ disgrace! Hang your heads in shame forumites.
But maybe this isnít our fault! Maybe it is those in the higher echelons of the forum are in fault. We have no registration of member interests ñ nothing for us refer back to in deciding which comments were made out of blind loyalty or bitter hatred.
So, here to ensure your forums democracy and ensure disclosure is the intermediate-gen console questionnaire.
The Past
1) First console owned (always going to influence things)
2) 32/64 bit consoles owned, ranked in order of preference.
3) Reason for ranking in part 1)
4) Favourite 32/64 bit game and why.
5) Best invention of the 32/64 bit era.
The Future
1) Please say one good and one bad thing about the PS2.
2) Please say one good and one bad thing about the GameCube.
3) Please say one good and one bad thing about the X-Box.
4) To include the Dreamcast: how do you feel about its downfall?
5) If you could have one, and one only, of the above consoles, which one?
6) Which 3rd party developerís games are you most looking forward to?
7) Which nex-gen game are you looking forward to most?
8) Gameboy Advance, an good way of gaming on the move or home of tired re-hashes?
If you can think of anything else, feel free to add it.

1) Please say one good and one bad thing about the PS2.

Its Nintendo and its far too small.

No

Very smug.

The Past
1) First console owned (always going to influence things)
Megadrive. One. :0)
2) 32/64 bit consoles owned, ranked in order of preference.
Dreamcast, N64.
3) Reason for ranking in part 1)
Skies of Arcadia.
4) Favourite 32/64 bit game and why.
Skies of Arcadia. :0) Because it's restored my faith in games.
5) Best invention of the 32/64 bit era.
The rumble pack... probably.
The Future
1) Please say one good and one bad thing about the PS2.
It's extremely popular everywhere, so many developers look straight for the PS2 to release their game. However, the technicalitys, real or simply rumours, have put companies off developing on it, seeing the PS2 as a rush job, instead of a stable platform.
2) Please say one good and one bad thing about the GameCube.
It's been built solidly, so games can be made as easily as possible, taking out all those sodding bottlenecks. It IS encouraging more developers to come to it [Capcom, anyone?], but there is the "kiddy" reputation that Nintendo are half heartedly trying to throw off. I don't particularly like the treatment of Europe to the rest of the world either, but I'm sure we've all heard enough of that. :0)
3) Please say one good and one bad thing about the X-Box.
It's going to have some solid games... none that anyone will have ever heard of before, but Microsoft still have to pick themselves up if they want to enter the market. The main problem being of course that they're new, and it's always difficult to enter competition like that. Sony had it ok, because Nintendo and Sega were lazy, but now that Nintendo and of course now Sony are battling strongly, it might be hard for the X-Box to make a decent impact.
4) To include the Dreamcast: how do you feel about its downfall?
Go buy one. Sod the fact that games aren't being made for it... who cares? It's one of the best little consoles on the planet, and people are shunning it because it's "dead".
5) If you could have one, and one only, of the above consoles, which one?
Interesting. A Gamecube, I suppose. Only because Skies of Arcadia is coming to it though. ;0)
6) Which 3rd party developerís games are you most looking forward to?
Rogue Leader.
7) Which nex-gen game are you looking forward to most?
Not really sure. Skies of Arcadia 2.
8) Gameboy Advance, an good way of gaming on the move or home of tired re-hashes?
Both. It's a great way to pass time, and the games are great... but Nintendo are milking it. And that irritates me.

The Past
1) First console owned (always going to influence things)
GameGear
2) 32/64 bit consoles owned, ranked in order of preference.
PlayStation
N64
3) Reason for ranking in part 1)
PlayStation has loads of racers. N64, well, didn't. Amongst other things.
4) Favourite 32/64 bit game and why.
Hmm. WipEout 2097, I think.
5) Best invention of the 32/64 bit era.
The PlayStation! No, actually, I think maybe either the dual shock or multiplayer gaming.
The Future
1) Please say one good and one bad thing about the PS2.
One good: Excellent games, all that I like
One bad: Too many excellent games! There's 5 next month and I've got to buy Christmas presents!!!
2) Please say one good and one bad thing about the GameCube.
One good: Cheap
One bad: Nintendo's appaling attitude to gamers
3) Please say one good and one bad thing about the X-Box.
One good: Impressive graphics
Obe bad: So huge, it's hardly portable.
4) To include the Dreamcast: how do you feel about its downfall?
I think it was forseeable. It was an excellent machine but just came too close for the PS2. Any other time it would have survived.
5) If you could have one, and one only, of the above consoles, which one?
Not including what I already have, Dreamcast. Otherwise, I'd stick with my PS2.
6) Which 3rd party developerís games are you most looking forward to?
SONY STUDIOS LIVERPOOL BABY, YEAH!
7) Which nex-gen game are you looking forward to most?
Well, seeing as I will have G-Surfers tomorrow, I'd say either MGS2 or Xenosaga
8) Gameboy Advance, an good way of gaming on the move or home of tired re-hashes?
It's a good way of mobile gaming but I'm not paying £35 for old SNES re-makes. When it gets a decent about of NEW games I'll buy one.
