This retarded piece of writing is taken from the Times newspapers, reivew of what's to come in 2003 for gaming.

"Nintendo is still something of an unknown quantity. It will certainly be pushing for more Gamecube sales in 2003, but will adopt a typically low key approach to promotion. Gamecube is aimed at children and Nintendo will not worry about trying to improve its popularity with older gamers. Some industry rumours suggested that if Nintendo's Gamecube failed it would simply make games alone - but that is to underestimate this player. This is Nintendo afetr all the folk who still have the handheld market to themselves and couldn't bank profits fast enough for 2 years as Pokemon ruled the world.

Gamecube titles to look out for include Disneys Sports Football, Super Bust-a-move 3000 and Dragons Lair 3D"

Complete and utter retards, either they're being payed by Sony to say all this bullshi-t or they really know nothing.

I feel like writing in and tearing them apart for being such complete nonces. The list of 'games to look out for' says it all really.

Complete morons.

It used to be fun, when they had a half-decent basis on which their arguement forms, but when they create stupid comments, such as the flashing lights one, you really do wonder as to wy these people actually bother in the first place.

Argueing with them is fun. Seriously fun! I remember having a non-gamecube realtaed arguement afew weeks ago about the Xbox/PS2. Man that was so funny. The PS2 fanboys were like

"The PS2 is tiny compared to the Xbox, And the PS2 has a better DVD player"

.........

Us: "The Xbox does'nt have the greenscreen problem and is an all round better console"

"But But But! Gamecube sucks, *Rubs legs over Vice City*"

"The PS2 can play CD's and DVD's, unlike GC!"

This argument is rendered useless with:

"Great, but I have a Hi-Fi with massive speakers and a DVD player with Surround sound"

"The PS2 has pretty lights!"

Again, this is useless when used against:

"So do novelty slippers."


Stupid fanboys, arguing is just too damned easy nowadays.

"The GC is too small, Get a PS2, It keeps me warm in bed at night!"

"PS2 has pretty lights so you can see where the buttons are in the dark"

"GC does'nt have a DVD player, The games are crap aswell, Unlike VICE CITY! *Rubs legs*"

My friends condradict themelves when trying to downgrade the GC.

"Mario Sunshine's crap, it's just like Mario 64, and although that was amazing, you've just got a new waterpack in this"

"Vice city's the exact same as GTA3,"

"That's good! GTA3 was brilliant!"

Idiots.

When you get your GC Gamezfreak, get Resi, Metroid and say ED, and then show them in quick succession.

'LAME! OH MY GOD! HOW CRAP!'

was one of the 'responses' of one of my friends.

Everybody else is getting a Cube and/or a car. HA!
