Good entry, it may just be a bit to long though. have you read any of the news articles, they keep them quite short.
Story:
An online auction site have set up five auctions, the bidding starts at a mere £1 on each one, and did I mention the auction is for a brand spanking new nintendo gamecube.
The auctions will run for seven days, at the end of this period the five highest bidders will get their own, state of the art gamecube, not bad eh? Not only will the lucky winners get a gamecube, they will be getting it months before every one else, who has to wait until march of next year.
If you dont even have £1 that you are willing to spend on games (cheap skate) then why not try yur luck at gameaday, all it will cost you is a bit of your time.
You can pre-order your gamecube now from special reserve, just click here, and soon there will be a next generation nintendo with your name on it.

After an exclusive interview with Capcom’s top cheese, The JaCee Daily can now say that Nintendo are leaving that colourful, baby-ish, Pokemon kind of scene when they realese the G-Cube in the UK .
Nintendo have been branded with the name ‘soft’ due to people like Pikachu and his other 149 friends, chubby little Mario and co. and all the pretty colours of N64 controllers.
But are latest news seems that Nintendo are now trying to shake the toddler scene that has put many ‘older’ gamers off from buying Nintendo’s previous console, Nintendo 64.
Capcom is providing screenshots and amazing looking video clips of their latest game for the Game Cube, Resident Evil.
From are pictures the violence for the G-Cube’s Resi seems to have been turned up a notch, the latest screen shots show real time-elements, such as the blood being a slightly different colour depending of the lighting of the room. You will now be able to shoot different parts of the zombie’s bodies like in the PC classic Soldier of Fortune. So expect to see a few more limbs flying around the place.
We managed to get a few words with Scott Cooper, the Official Playstation player of the Cooper Household, he says, “I might not be the biggest fan of Nintendo, or Resident Evil at that but I’m very impressed with the latest Resi game. I think it’s a good move how Nintendo are trying to shake of that younger look, this will attract a whole new crowd of gamers.”
When leaving we also got a question in with Nanny Cooper, Official ‘Nagger’ of the Coopers, here what’s she has to say about the Resident Evil series, “Who shot who in the what now?”
Were still at this time are trying to get a straight answer.
With the Game Cube planning to reach the UK this coming spring don’t expect a whole load of childish games on the shelves, so to all the horror freaks out there, brush the dust off of those shotguns, the Zombies are coming! (Oh and if you don’t mind, you couldn’t give a quick shooting to Pikachu while your at it could you? Many thanks)

The gun has sounded and the race is off, which race am I talking about, the great console race of course. Now all three entrants in the race (PS2, Xbox, Gamecube) are at the starting line, the race can begin. the three consolse will travel from the manufacturors, to stores across the world, and then finish up in some ones christmas stocking.
But which console will rain triaphant, which will have its controlers held in the air in victory, and which will be left on the shelfs with discarded picachu toys. place your bets now! Each has different qualities, the PS2 with its built in, and ready to go DVD player aswell as the bonus of playing original playstation games. The Xbox has its hard drive, and the gamecube has um...four controler ports, so theres no need for multi-taps.
Which ever wins, its going to be a fun and enjoyable race, atleast for us. Each company will keep lowering their prices to beat their oponents to the sale. We can also expect to see some great advances in the games we play and the accesories that help us play them.
GAME ON!

Actress Nadia Sawahla has sensationally revealed that she would never go on a blind date with someone. "I'd never go on a blind date", said Miss Sawahla, sister of Absolutely Fabulous star Julia. When asked why, she shrugged her shoulders before releasing a torrent of expletives at some passing ducks.
Than you
