First the GCN gets 3DO and their Army Men 'games'...then they get two Resident Evil games ported from some seven year old hardware...and now they get some games from the freaking MEGA-DRIVE after this new Sega announcement.

Not to mention the GBA's swelling library of SNES and M-D games.

And the cancellation of Spaceworld.

And the President saying they might pull a Sega.

Wow.

So everyone says it's a classic EXCEPT you. Therefore it is not a classic.

Are we talking about Metroid Prime? If so, the game has not been played by ANYONE on these boards.

I don't think so. Playing GoldenEye and DK Racing round my mates' houses week after week made me want an N64 really badly. And I got one.

Not really. I borrowed my mate's Burnout for a week and was decidedly unimpressed with it. Just didn't seem as good as everyone's been saying...or that good at all.

And Rogue Squadron has a few cool bits, like the final mission and the AT-ATs bit, but it's by no means the classic that every other owner says it is. I don't like the game as a whole, really.

And I'd like to thank er-no for making that last statement. Unfounded statements that serve no real purpose are always appreciated, especially from Notables.

Of course, if it was original on a Sony console (coughs) then it would be the bee's knee's.

Too original? Me thinks not!

Oh my God Ant, I can't beleive you just said that. You have confirmed to us all that you really are just a Sony Zombie. How can the problem with the game be that it's original?

I only have rogue leader at the moment but it is a great game and darn tough too. What I like too is it is so close to the real parts in the first three films.
