Having seen the spec for GTA Vice City there is only one game to get this Christmas and its not a stupid old fart plumber that should have been flushed down the toilet along time ago.

Vice City looks awesome with 120 vehicles, 40 weapons, and 9hrs worth of audio in glorous DTS sound the Gamecubes rubbish disc could not even hold the audio not to mention having no Dolby sound anyway.

Still never mind Pokemon is coming and we all know the quality of that has been series.

I'd ask you to expand on your point. Everyone has their own opinions. Why do you dissagree with the majority? Why rate GTA3 so low? What would game of the year be to you then?

Saying it's "trojan horse poo' is hardly civillized now, is it?
State your point, then back it up with evidence you moron.

That would certainly help - but the game is still going to be on the big side. Also, I think some 1 said that loading time might be hit if there was a lot of decompressing to do.
