I own an XBox. I enjoy playing my XBox with my mates. I enjoy selling XBox's at work. Infact, I rate the XBox as a console higher than the PS2.

I tell the truth and give my opinion on this forum and when I mention another game it is because I really do play all games I can and will recommend some over others with my opinion. I know many of you don't like me posting on here because you seem to think I can't go a post without mentioning Nintendo and their games. I prefer Nintendo to any other games company, they are who I grew up with and I have worked for them in the past and got free stuff. Wouldn't you like them too?

I don't like Microsoft as a PC company, but I hope they understand they cannot monopolise the gaming market in the way they did the PC. I think there is enough room for all three consoles in this market, especially with gaming now being the biggest worldwide form of entertainment. If Microsoft joined the gaming market five years ago I know that Nintendo and Sega wouldn't have stood a chance.

Microsoft are bad news in any industry (my opinion). But then again, so are most conglomerates, especially News Coperation. Microsoft aren't as bad as them :)

I enjoy playing my XBox, and I am honest. Look, when I mention another company in the future, I don't expect people to try and drive me out of the forum with insults and how I am getting on their nerves. Maybe if you read what I had to say and decided to listen you might find my opinion is somewhat valued as a gamer of 15 years and one who has owned all consoles to date.

I actually celebrate Rare being owned by Microsoft. Conker deserves to be on a bloody powerful console as does Perfect Dark, online features in those two games will kick behind and there is no doubt as to the XBox being the console to be online with in the UK.

If you want a release date or anything for XBox or want any news, just ask me, I ain't an idiot as some of you may think. I do like the console, just not the company.

My version is 41 minutes and 33 seconds. Each Buffy episode is the usual 42 minute give or take a minute each way, there never this short. You have a seriously cut copy there missing about 15 minutes of footage.

Because its America. They start filming in the Summer and after a few episodes have been done they start showing them on TV. Then of course they need to take breaks in between episodes so that they dont run out of new episodes. They have a 4-6 week break at around Easter time too. Think Buffy starts late September in America and then early Jan over here. But America only gets the last episode of the season about 1-2 weeks before us. I personally like having a new ep on each week but nearly all American stations have these big gaps. No new Angel either til Jan, and Charmed is the same as there is a 3 week gap between episode 9 and 10.
