Yeah I wasn't sure about the magical bits either. But I thought Microsoft struck a deal with Sega to make the Shenmue games exclusive to X-Box.

That's what I originally thought. But I haven't been too impressed with the GameCube so far. I was expecting to be blown away by Mario but I wasn't. (Although I also wasn't too impressed with Halo - I'm sure I'm going off games but I really want to get back into them properly - I miss the days of Goldeneye and Perfect Dark multiplayers. With XBox I may get that since Rare are making games.)

Zelda does look good but not as mind boggling as Ocarina.
The F-Zero video I've seen didn't impress me (no gameplay mind).
Metroid HAD that crap sounding aiming system (dunno if it still has).
1080 is called White Storm. Wave Race was called Blue Storm and was hugely disappointing.
I hate Resi games.
Donkey Kong wasn't great on N64.
Don't want anything to do with Pokemon.
I LOVE LYLAT WARS!!!
Starfox Adventures got a crap review.


XBox has Rare and Shenmue. Rare rule and I NEED the Shenmue games. Say they have crap gameplay if you want but I love them!
