Whilst X-box and PS2 fans enjoy the release of Timesplitters 2 on the 18th Gamecube will get theres a week later due to Nintendo being very slow at churning out games.... or so we thought.

It turns out Nintendo are even slower so we'll get it two weeks after the X-box and PS2 release on no less than 1st Novemeber, this clashes with the storming release of:

Eternal Darkness...

Sheeesh what a lot of playing and paying... lucky I have both claimed...

There's a problem though.

I don't know that many local people with Xbox's, and the ones I do know only have a few pads, I'd need to import and extra TV, and getting 16 games players (because to play an FPS properly, you do need to be a half decent games player, and they're harder to find than it sounds).

Not to mention having to get some ethernet hub...


To be saved for very special occasions only I think...

contraversial but - i think medal of honur is way over-rated, most of the missions are really boring with crap objectives, and i kn ow it was on the ps2 but the graphics were pretty average to say the least, and from what ive read its gonna be a straight port.

i think he is saying that all those quality titles put the launch titles to shame, and they make the last 2 years of the PS2's back catalogue look irrelevent.

Yeah, every time I have sixteen people over at my house I think, "I wish Timesplitters 2 was out. Also I wish I had four X-Boxes and Four TV's. And a room big enough to house all of the above. Oh, everyone's gone now"
