That Monkey is me!

Yes, this Christmas Mr.MWA doesn't know what games to get!

This is quite a tragedy as Mr.MWA hasn't asked for much this xmas and would love a game or two.

Is it wierd or is there no REALLY major releases this xmas? every other year I have wanted over 4 games, but this year after browsing and using my gaming knowledge can think of none!

Ok theres one, GTA 3. But.....I don't have a PS2 and don't want one either, I'm waiting till March for my copy on PC :-s

So can anyone recommend some games on: N64, GBA, DC or PC?


Cheers,
MWA

hehe I kinda figured the none for N64, it had it's days. I remember just waiting to one my N64 games at xmas, even trying to find the presents that look like N64 boxes to open up first. Afraid thats no more :-(

ISS has commentry on it on the GBA? They don't still go 'And that's a great goal by *voice changes to robot style* England' do they?

I was looking at Wolfstien but i'm not sure, will need to look into it. I was thinking of maybe getting a Online RPG, they look quite intresting and I haven't had the chance to play one before.

there are quite a few major releases for the PS2 and GBA, but the older consoles are at the end of their tether; its time to move to the next gen. As for PC, there never is that many major games at Xmas.

No, there is Sin & Punishment for the N64. Civ. 3 for the Pc and mabye return to castle wolfenstein. Shenmue 2 is good, and Warioland 4 on the GBA is utterly amazing. Out of them all, Warioland 4 is the best. Everything that Super Mario Advance should have been, multiplied by your age. :)

DC
Shenmue 2 - lovely sequel to a lovely game.

Skies of Arcadia - not new, but if you haven't got it, get it!

PSX

Syphon Filter 3 - Nice alternative to MGS, less thinking, more shooting.

Italian Job - again, not too new, but worth it.

None for the N64. Doom and International Superstar Soccer (with commentary!) on the GBA; Shenmue 2 and Virtual Tennis 2 on the DC, and Return TO Castle Wolfeinstein on the PC.
