How pathetic are these developers?

They're acting like spoilt children.

Can't they reliase that the bad sales aren't down to Gamecube and Nintendo and no amount of finger pointing is gonna change the facts. It's down to them releasing games.

Other than Mortal Combat, nothing really worth talking about.

On another note, Haven call of the King was cancelled for Cube and Xbox and has recently appeared again under a different publisher for release on Cube later this year.

I actually thought that it looked quite good from what i'd read, probably wrong though.

I struggle to think of a half-decent, memorable game Midway have made for the GameCube. They are a software house that can go back to humping the PS2 for all i care.

It's funny that all these software stores/developer telesales staff etc... don't know about games.

I walk into a certain video shop (not a SR shop) a few weeks ago with some games to sell and guess what, one of the games was on their system but had a slightly different name to what the game was called so they wouldn't buy it off me, ironicly the same game was already on their shop.

Why do so many clueless muppets work in game stores?

Stupied shop assistant: wind what? is it a Playstaion game?

Midway are crap anyways.

I told them that yesterday. It was very funny.

'Hi, I'm Joby from cube-europe?'

'Who? Midway female said.

'Biggest Nintendo dedicated site in Europe, which company are you here with?'

'Midway'

'Ah, when is a good game out then?'


I'm a harsh man. Pff. The graphics man is evil <-- muhaaha ;)
