Who didn't believe me?
Who didn't think Nintendo would drop their prices, eh?

I think it's safe to say that Nintendo's sexy little 'Cube is far more enticing than Microsoft's fat, black chunk of a console.

What a great day for Ninties!

Must rephrase that...not being biased, but having an opinion.

In my opinion, the PSX offered far better games than the N64. In my opinion, the N64 was a failure. Not enough games, only a couple of really good games, and way too expensive.

The GC might be cheap, but judging by the launch titles it's not going to offer that much in the games department, especially when you consider the PS2 has a load of great titles out already.

And who cares anyway, apart from Halo the only decent games on the X-Box will be PS2 ports.

I never liked Final Fantasy or Resident Evil, so do I care that they have gone to the GameCube as well? Nope, not all.

Am I being extremely biased? Yes, because it's fun.

Yes...I did happen to be joking. I was "saying" that no matter how far the price drops, the PS2 will still be the best.

And in reply to er-no, PS2 games will be cheaper than GC games, and there's not that many PS2 games going to the GC actually...more to X-Box, anyway.

Better games on a cheaper console... or most of the same games on a cheaper console.

LOL! PS1 games were far cheaper than the N64 games. Despite PS1 having lower graphics and poorer (generally) titles on offer...cheap stuff WILL sell whether you like it or not.
