I was lead to believe that the GBA was a 32bit dream hand-held which would give the user Ps1 quality games on a hand-held oh how I was mislead. The games look rubbish Mario advanced looks like a SNES rip-off and that is probably why they are making all the old SNES classics. Have you seen doom? My old 386 pc could make a better job of that. At the end of the day who with any sense would buy a GBA game at £34.99 when you can buy a GC and PS2 game for the same price. The screens not exact TFT quality is it, my Samsung A300 has a better screen resolution than the GBA.

Because the PSX had a 3D chip in it. GBA does not.

Anyway, the games on GBA are more fun than on PSX. So kiss my a##e.

Golden Sun is actually better looking in-game than Final Fantasy 7, and the characters look better than those in 7 and 8.

Do you never stop wingeing? Anyway whilst it is 32 bit, it is never likely to reach PS1 quality graphics, but since it is totally portable can you complain?

"You don't stop playing games because you grow up. You grow up because you stop playing games."

Stick that in your pipe and smoke it. If you can understand what it means, of course...
