According to CVG.com, the next publisher to get swallowed up by bills loose change is bioware.
Look at http://www.computerandvideogames.com/front_index.php?
Doesn't make sence to me. What do bioware make which is really outstanding? Baulders Gate and KOTOR? RPGs just don't do it for me love, bar shenmue.
MS should just do the best thing and buy a stake in Sega, ensuring great games.
Thoughts?

That's the most tarded thing i've ever read.
You want an example?
You see that little thing on your control pad called a D Pad?
You wouldn't have that if it wasn't for Nintendo's innovation.
4 ports on the front of a console? oh yeah that will be Nintendo too.
Rumble packs for your controller? Yup I think you'll find Nintendo can lay claim to that as well.
I could go on listing all night but it would get very boring.

How hypocritical can one person be?
You seem to think than anyone who likes another console and doesn't agree with everything you say has it in for the Xbox.
I have nothing against the Xbox in any way, shape or form. Infact I think it's a pretty good console, i'd buy one if I had the time to spend playing it to make it a worthwhile purchase.
The only thing I ever do is defend the Cube against people such as yourself. In your mind your right everyone who doesn't subscribe to Belldandy's way of thinking is wrong and is out to get you.
If anyone's being infantile here my friend, it is you. Anyway I can't be bothered wasting my time on fanboys, such as yourself.

Belldandy, you seriously are quite pathetic sometimes. You now remain as pretty much the ony XBox forum regular to be so infantile towards the GC.
There's no point starting an argument here because by the time I've come back to this forum it will have probably dropped off the page. But you should seriously read over what you say carefully, because you're just as bad as anyone you jump to criticise.

Oh dear Tilta, really are getting worked up aren't we ? I see that now those who do not follow your beloved purple cubs are now nonces ? Yes, I am sure a failure to believe in the GC as a great machine is an equivalent crime to that of nonces, in your own little screwed up world. Inhabited by one person. You. Ahem......
Your PC may indeed have a hard drive, but I challenge you to show me a PC that, for 169.99, comes with two decent games and can run HALO at full tilt, because that PC hasn't been invented yet.

Er yeah, right. Cartridges when everyone went for CDs ? An overpriced failed add on for the N64, ports on the bottom of several consoles that were never used.....what have they actually innovated, apart from coloured consoles ? Please, tell me ?

Online is the future, simply because more and more things are shifting to online.

no hard drive,
Yet again my PC can do that.
no DVD,
Since when has watching films made any difference to the way you play games?
no dolby 5.1 in games,
Again not exactly innovative.
You see I wasn't actually comparing the consoles specs you nonce, I'm talking about the games.

Online play was already screwed up before Nintendo got anywhere near it. If you think online gaming is the future then you're welcome to your own misguided opinion, but i'll contest it all the way.

Pah, crap. That's 350 000 signed up, credit cards registered, users, and growing daily. It's pretty damn far from pathetic once you start to think about it.

Think of a date, add 6 months to that date, will probably be about as effective as any date anyone gives.

Yes.
are you 100% possitive that Halo's coming to PC?
Why are people jumping up and down so much about online gaming?
Sony release a statement saying "600,000 people have gone online with PS2" which firstly translates as "we've had 600,000 online hits", which indicates only a fraction of that number actually have gone online, and even then, compare that to the size of the Sony user base, and it's pathetic. XBOX boast what, 350,000? Again, you can take a fraction of those as the real figure, and while as a % of user base, it's better than Sony, it's still pathetic given the amount of money the companies have invested in that direction.
If I want to go online, I have a PC. If I want to play the best games in the world, I'll play on my GC.
Anyone know the release date of Halo on PC by the way?
