Its my honest opinion that the XBox should fail. If it succeeds then we as a group of gamers, and gamers as a world grouping. Can say goodbye to Nintendo's hardware. Its obvious that the massive conglomerate of Sony will never be crushed away, as its profits are too high in the console and entertainment world. Its vital that Nintendo stay healthy, because without them we would have gaming halted for Microsoft and Sony to dominate and cash in on pointless and sellable games.

I have changed my mind. I don't often do. However, recent events have shown me some light. Sony aren't that bad a company, sure, they use their synergies and completely over advertise the market. They maybe even guilty of premature releases, and just wanting (like any company really) to earn a solid profit.

Sony. They, are now the good guys. Microsoft. They, are now the permanently disgusting bad guys. Why? Why couldn't they leave the gaming market alone? What do they think they are doing?

Remember that court case? Yeap. That Microsoft, 'split up or melt down' one. Well, they were scared, Bill soiled every pair of boxers that month because of that case, this was when they knew they had to move dominance. What could they have? Excellent. The console world, the profit centre of the industries bar films.

With this, and Bill's stains, they decided to make a console, centered around the shape of the reviews they get back from every decent magazine on their operating system.
It was not long before it was made, released and marketed as 'the best of the consoles'.

ITS NOT.

Reasons... well my list wouldn't end, and no these would not be 'its crap' or 'Nintendo rule' arguments. I would basically review the XBox just like most american 'decent' magazines.

'Its a low end market PC, without the screen, but more expensive'.

That is the er-box. We don't need it. Because we have Sony and Nintendo.

I just pray with all my gaming soul. That the GameCube is a success, it has to be, for gaming to get better for us all.

This is my honest and 'fair' opinion. Yet again the XBox crashed on me today.

'WELCOME TO WINDOWS. WELCOME TO XLAND. WELCOME TO HELL'.
