Now Galleon has been stuck in its fourth year of development hell... I know that still exists... but where the hell is Resident Evil: Code Veronica X.
In my eyes the greatest story of all the Resident Evil stories and one of the most dramatic, it works along side the upcoming Resident Evil 4 as well. Now I played it to death on the Dreamcast but an excuse to play the X version is all i need... and yet with RE2, RE3, RE4 and RE0 all recieving a date or a time period I am distinctly worried about the absence of Chris and Claire's adventure.
In other news American consumers can choose out of Metroid Prime, Resident Evil 0, Star Fox Adventures or Mario Party 4 to get free when the buy there Gamecube! Could a similar deal soon be heading to Europe?
Splinter Cell has been delayed until May time and it is running behind the PS2's one that is due in March. The game is being ported from the X-box game and not the PS2 so it should contain improved graphics over Sony's console.
hmmmm.

I have approx 985 blocks free.
Should be enough for some updates.
Or patches.
Not many though.

*shrug*
All I know is it took up no extra blocks whatsoever, must have been stored in the save file or something.

Impossible lol. It would have been stored on the memory card on a file very very small.

Skies of Arcadia did it, and it didn't take up any space on your card. I don't know how they did it, but they somehow got the data to be stored in the game, rather than on your memory card.

The Splinter Cell download is not a patch :) Its an "update" with new levels,weapons ect ;)
The GC "download onto memory card" idea is great on paper, But the downloads wouldeat up your card in minutes, You'd need like 10 memory cards to play an updated game!
Still GC online should'ntbe considered Nintendo's killer app,I don't want to see the demise of single player games.

Heheheh.. GameCube LIVE.. how funny would it be if they called it that? ;)
Anyhoo, I was under the impression that things could be downloaded onto memory cards? Maybe not. Perhaps Nintendo will bring out a hard drive one day.

Downloadable patches are NOT the future.
They WILL ruin gaming.

The GC version will be getting the extras levels already on the disc.
Us Xbox'ers will have to download em ;)
It would be impossible to download anything off "GC live" anyway, The GC has no Hard Drive ;)
