Panzer Dragoon Orta
After a whole string of reviews I've read there is only one conclusion- this will be great.
Epic storyline, fantastic soundtrack, great old skool gameplay with new twists, tons of extras- including the saturn original not to mention the best visual experience Xbox has yet delivered. I'll back that up- I've seen footage.
And one more thing- Boss Battles! They're back. According to Gamespot, its one of the best blends between tried and tested gameplay with new technology. I like the sound of that.
Set youy money aside for this one guys.

And you can take those 2 titles including a 5 year olds crayon drawing character graphics and shove them up your dung funnel too - cause I'm happy with the 60 or so titles that I want. Simple really isn't it.
Right take those 60 X-box titles, shove them where the sun don't shine and give me just Metroid and zelda... that is all I need not 60 odd western games with a few SEGA stars in the middle.
Hey - I'm not the one making a big deal about this. All I said was a few comments and some people have to drag it out into a full blown argument.
He wants a lot of games Maverick...get over it.
I want a hell of a lot of games, I'm sure a lot of people want a hell of a lot of games.

To Mav those names of 60 Xbox games is just that-names.
To Sav, and infact a great extent me, find those games to be of interest. Every preview of any Xbox game I read, because you would be stuburn not to give a game a chance just becuase it's not made buy a certain developer or isnt a game in a long running series.
Every game in Sav's list I've heard of (bar Crankey the weasel- or whatever) I've read a bit about(OK mabye only a paragraph) or seen a screenshot. It might sound promicing. After all a year ago of you had mentioned Splinter Cell people wouldn't have a clue what you are on about and it no matter what it wouldn't touch MGS. It did.
Any one of those games in Savs list could be the next hotly talked sleeper hit of the year. I would encourage everyone to have a bit of an open mind and don't judge something because you don't know about it.

What? Not at all, I'm always impartial - and I'll only say something if it's worth saying. Plus, these forums are for discussion - who gives a damn whether or not I mention the GameCube? I'll be getting an X-Box later this year, anyway ;-).

I was having a conversation with you - Tiltawhirl wasn't included.

Sounds good - my point was (though it now looks a bit stupid after Whitstripes explained it) that each game wouldn't be as enjoyable as it could be if you were playing lots of games at the same time.
> So yeah, basically - nyaa, I'll want as many games as I want. :-p
Yeah, well.. yeah...

Oooooook. Anyway, the reason I said what I said was because your attitude seems to change between a GC or an X-Box owner making a point. Everytime someone in here makes a point of why they're happy with they're X-Box, you often seem to give in to this urge to 1 up them with something to do with the GC.
For one I didn't see you include Tilt in your statement despite his list of games.
The games on my list won't be rubbish in anyway for me as I spend a lot of time playing them. Chances are I won't be able to afford all of them and will be forced to do things by priority, but those are the games I want.
I've been lucky enough to win GAD recently so one of the games I want is covered. I'll be picking up Mortal Kombat next weekend so I'll be playing that as well.
So yeah, basically - nyaa, I'll want as many games as I want. :-p

Would you PLEASE stop accusing people of these things? I have the right to make a point without having it thrown back in my face almost every time with a conviction of fanboyism.
My point was - your list was ridiculous. Get all those games, and you won't be able to play any of them properly - making them all rubbish by default.
