"American Pre-Orders Of Zelda Even Outgun Vice City Pre-Orders."

I'm not one to gloat and, having a GC, there's not too much to gloat about sales-wise (apart from the games, obviously :P) but when SR reports more than 560,000 pre-orders in ther USA for Zelda, it must be good news for Nintendo.

*smug grin*

Yeah. You jump up platforms. Sure. That makes it a platformer as a whole?

Er. No. It plays like Ocarina of Time or MM.

Dont get me wrong, I was looking forward to Zelda, and at first the Cel-Shading didn't bother me. But when I saw the game in action, it did just look like another platformer.

But as I said before, I do hope it does well, because this will hopefully give the GC the boost I think it needs.

Hmm. You've been looking for games haven't you..... :D

Actualy, that would probably be my XBox list, well, in numbers anyway.

I know I don't have any decent games, because there aren't all that many good games available. I will be getting Resi 0 and possibly Metroid Prime. But other than that, nothing else interests me.

By the way: The games I have are:

Luigi's Mansion
Star Wars: Rouge Leader 2
Rocky
Die Hard: Vendetta

Thats all, 4 games in 5 months.

:)

Yes but Lou Role, you've got no decent games ferchrissake. And Zelda is an RPG. And it WILL rule.

I'm one of those few that dont think it looks very good and I won't be getting it. Not just because of graphics though, it just looks like another platformer to me.

It's good to know other people do like it though, and hopefully this will give the Cube a little boost, a bit more popularity. I do have a Cube and I have to say I've been dissapointed with it since I got it. So hopefully this will help things a bit.

Not sure about the "frustration" bit...

Not me I can say, I hate realistic graphics, I want to be whisked away into an unreal world, where there's nothing but fun and frustation.

Muuuuuuuuuuuuuuuh
