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.

not someone who is biased, but knows little. although to mention disney games seems to point towards a biased mind.

They probably don't even know what a Gamecube is.

They work for Sony.

However wrote the article, clearly has no clue what they are going on about. I bet they have never played on a Gamecube before.

Well clearly he meant someone who doesn't own a Gamecube, and is biased against it.

Where'd you get that from?

Maybe it's like a newspaper thing.

You know like how each newspaper is completely biased toward a certain political party at election time.

;)

Mind you all newspapers don't really know what they're on about when it comes to games.

It was clearly written by someone with a ps2 or x-box, or very biased children with an x-box or PS2, and because of this he got a space on 2003s gaming.

I suppose i'ts not really times fault, not a lot of them probably know much at all. but even so, to write something like that with little knoweledge is a bit thoughtless.

(what I wanted to say)

Bastardz.

My opinion? Don't read The Times and buy The Sun, The Sun has breasts.
