"Where are you now???"

Im just interested in finding out, where all us Sega fans have actually gone to. After the DC unfortunately died, even though we all still play with it. Most of us by now have bought a new console. So just as a survey, please post which machine you bought after the DC ended, and why.

Thanx.

I had a PS2 before the DC departed, but then, sensing the lack of innovation from our 'friends' at Sony, I turned to the wonderful Gamecube. What a console, with the best controller in the biz, although the N64 one was better, je pense. It just needs some quality games, and a bit of DECENT MARKETING, eh Nintendo *wink, wink* and by the end of this year, we should have some true epics unfolding on our screens, courtesy of the 'Cube. At least that's what I think.

yeah, from what I have seen from the GC, it is more colourful than Sonys attempts. There are some Xbox games I simply cant wait for, I think I might end up having to storm the offices of Lionhead studios (Sam Fisher style!!! Taking out a few innocent developers on the way) and demand to play Fable. This year is definitely gonna be a good gaming year, with Halo 2, Shenmue 2, Fable and many others being released. Im looking forward to how PSO will look on GC!

By the way.. are you going to buy the new black lit 'folding' GBA when it comes out James?

Possibly not when it comes out, but it may be winging its way to me in the near future, I dare say.

Yeah, Im not sure yet. I think its about march when its released sometime around then. Its very tempting though, I cant remember the amount of times I have had to come running to a light source or bend the GBA in a funny position, just to get a bit of light to play. A back lit version is tempting, and it looks very cool indeed (SR have a few pics of it!)... however I can imagine the average lifetime of the batteries will be about 2 minutes.

Needless to say I moved on to the Xbox.... mainly for the SEGA exclusives, and in particular Jet Set Radio Future, Crazy Taxi 3 and Shenmue 2, 3 and perhaps 4, 5 & 6 :-)

There are some nice but ultimately pointless videos on pocket.ign.com I think, and it looks pretty nice in those, I think you'll find.

I have a Gamecube, GBA, and Xbox. But i prefer my Dreamcast alot more.

--WE have somethign in common Nomad. Cos thats the same reason why I bought an XBox. But as I said earlier, I bought one for the great games as well, but mainly because I feel that XBox has the best Sega support.
