That's right, I was walking past some shops and I saw our local Electronics Salon didn't have one in the display case!

I went in and asked if I could have a go, they laughed at me and yanked my mittens about so I smacked myself in the face a few times.

After not playing for about 10 minutes, this is the impression that I get (I heard it isn't good, but that's the impression that I get...da-da-da-da-daaaaa)

It's tiny. So small I couldn't even see it. I don't want something this small, because it could easily get lost on the floor or in the sky.

The gameplay. Gameplay was non-existent, I was bored after about 5 minutes of not playing Mario Testes Taster, it seemed very samey and not fun.

The controller. It was stupid and small, with many bright buttons and a small alarm that alerts your mum when you have made soil in your nappy.

So having not played on Nintendo's latest offering, I can only say that I think the Xbox is excellent, because it's massive and black and for grown-ups.
Mind you, even if you hate Xbox, at least they can play it for 2 months before Gamecube is released and then buy one of those as well.

Me?
Neo-Geo all the way baby.

Having never played an X-box or GameCube I want both.
Eventually.
For now I quite fancy a sausage roll.
Damn well starving.

And can't do this OpenGL

I know, uncanny isn't it?

Having not played on one, I don't want one.
However, having played on a Gameboy Advance,I dont want one of those either.

I like the way your posts never have any bias at all, just in the same way that my posts never contain light-hearted sarcasm.

I too haven't played the Gamecube, and therefore have decided not to get one based on that evidence.

I haven't played the XBox either, and yet still, strangely, want one.

And there was me thinking that I'm not prejudiced.

Bah! PC Engine blows Neo-Geo out of the water. Crappy SNK games.
