"Sega ditch Nintendo"

It appears that Sega are in big trouble and have had to take action first up it will publish games on Multi-format so things like Sega Gt and Jet Set Radio future will have to go all console format, when you are in the position that Sega are in at the moment it is very foolish to go down exclusive titles route anyway.

Then there are the Sega Sports titles which Sega will no longer produce for the GC as the sluggish sales of the cube have forced it into totally ditching sports titles for the GC as they are not financially profitable (oh dear).

I don't change over discs because dvd roms are big enough.

Wow and there was me thinking it was only your brain that was retarded Top Score. The 10-o-Clock news must be on for what, about 30 minutes. Does it really take you that long to swap over a DVD in a console? Your handicap must be more serious than I thought.

I’d offer you my condolences, if I even had the slightest regard for you life.

But I don’t, so I won’t.

Sorry.

DivX, anyone...

Retard.

It takes less then 20 seconds to change the disc over.

That is a bit like saying I prefer watching a film on TV that has the 10oclock news inbetween rather than watching the film straight through.

Talking of fanboys....

*glances at post below*

oh dear.

Well done update 2.01, that was a factual post that was 100% true, and best of all, you didn't use the fact to have a dig at any other consoles while preaching the PS2 gospel according to fanboys.

Now this begs the question, why the hell can't you post factually based material or well-rounded and reasonable based opinions (and not fanboy cr@p) all the time?

Just cut the FMV it's not like Nintendo have not had to do that in the past because of poor format capacity. That would work well with a game like LOTR Two Towers.

DVD holds 4.25Gb on a single layer, single sided "standard" disc. Using dual layer, you can get 8.5Gb on one side.

GTA-VC uses about 4.0Gb, so yes games are around that are larger than 1.5Gb.

Well if Sega do have to bring so-called "xbox exclusives" to the gamecube, I hope they release Panzer Dragoon Orta as that would definatley shift a heck of a lot of copies and boost the popularity of the series as it's a great franchise. I recently managed to aquire a complete copy of Panzer Dragoon Saga and am currently playing on that more then any of my Gamecube games! it really is THAT good im glad i didnt sell it though however tempting that prospect may have been at the time ;) as I reckon it's by far one of the best RPG's ever made and if the port the next installment to Gamecube that would be brilliant, ah well heres hoping...
