The "Xbox Games" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
I don't think I've seen anyone call the X-box rubbish because of it's size. If people have, then they deserve a kick up the backside. Is a Jumbo Jet rubbish because of it's size? If it was smaller it wouldn't be a Jumbo Jet. The only reference to the console's size I've seen is either from X-box fans accusing 'Ninties' of moaning about it, or from Dark Mark and his very humourous comments about needing a team of architects to design it.
I have, on many occasions, seen people criticise the GameCube because of cosmetic reasons though. Colour, size and even the fact it has a handle! So bloody what? The console is only the shell for the hardware!
Comments about the controllers. I find the X-box controller really uncomfortable. I've got large hands so that can't be the reason for my discomfort. Whatever the reason is, I still find it uncomfortable. That doesn't mean everyone else finds it comfortable, just the same as if you find it comfortable, it doesn't mean everyone else does.
To me, the GameCube controller is the most comfortable controller I've ever used. I used to think that of the Dreamcast's controller before the GameCube, so no one give me that "Ninty" crap. Not everyone has the same opinions and we all have the right to express them.
Daveus for some reason believes that we, who don't necessarily enjoy the X-box as much as other consoles we've played, have no right to our opinions. Infact, as you may be aware, he told me...sorry, ORDERED me to get out of the X-box forum because of my opinions! Why he thought he had the authority to do so I do not know and I will take this up with the staff if I have to. If everyone who likes or has liked previous consoles in the past wasn't allowed to post in here, the X-box forum would be empty!
Debation (even in mass quantities :D) is what the forums are about. Some people will like one console, others will like another, and some will like every one of them. That's what these forums are about! The X-box forum isn't designated for X-box fans, just X-box topics. Anyone can post their opinions. Otherwise, what are you doing here other than to see other's opinions? Oh, I forgot, you're writing long and meaningless topics to try and win the X-box game of your choice. Those of you who do only come here for the competition, get out more! If you come here for the community, for entertainment value, for opinions and discussions on gaming matters - AS WELL as to hopefully win a game of your choice, then good for you.
Now this goes for everyone who reads it, no matter which forum they are in, atleast take note that other's have opinions too. There's no point in being selfish, no point in getting yourselves worked up, and in Daveus' case, there's no point in making a right fool out of yourself by trying to play Hitler! Have fun, keep the peace and just enjoy yourselves a little. I personally don't come online to see bullying, name calling, exclusion and pettiness. If I wanted that, I'd go back to school! I'm sure you don't come on here for those reasons either.
Just do me one favour....Listen.

When I typed Edgy I meant Tiltawhirl! Look back, I have said 'ITS GOOD TO TALK TO *SOME* GAMECUBE' owners but when there are only a few about then there is nothing I can do about that!
So you think it is fair that the Xbox is always put down do you? YOU CLEAR OFF!
So you think it is fair that the Xbox is always put down do you? YOU CLEAR OFF!
Define a Fanboy! If a Fanboy is someone who enjoys playing games on a particular console then discuss them with *DECENT* people then I am guilty as charged! I haven't said one bad word about the GameCube in this forum so what are you talking about?
Fanboys go into other forums dropping cheap arguments (like you) and then sling insults towards others in that forum and you wonder why I retaliate towards people like you!
I stick to this forum (and Dreamcast) talking about Xbox games and discussing with decent GameCube owners like Er-no and Edgy, but every once in a while I meet people like you and it puts me off coming on!

You're speaking to the wrong Ninty's then, i'll be the first to admit that some Ninty's are biased fools but it's the same with Xbox users, some are sensible some are Daveus. The only reason I come on these forums is for a discussion and sometimes I find myself defending the GC to chimps who have trouble forming sentences let alone putting across a valid point. Garbe you've sorted yourself out recently and respect is due for that but a little while ago I can remember you where typing this so called biased nonsense.

Question them but don't try and shove it down their throats that they're wrong, I hate the Final Fantasy series but a lot of people would say they where the best games ever. There's no point shouting at me though cause it's not gonna change my mind.
By the don't take any of comments the wrong way, a lot of people on these forums seem to get stressed when they receive any kind of criticism, I'm not having a go at you :D

A high score in a magazine is just an opinion. It doesn't mean that everyone else will consider it such a good game. Look at NOM, they rated South Park 90%, most people hated it!

Defend the GameCube? From me? You stupid idiot, what I have said about the GameCube? You muppet! I am a Fanboy? ROFL, pot calling the kettle! I am in my own forum for the console *I own* looking for decent people to talk to, unfortuntly there are Ninties like you who can't find anything better to do than discuss another console, LOL alarm bell ringing! If the GameCube is so good why aren't you playing it? Or why aren't you discussing it in the Nintendo forum? Go away you fool!

Rubbish, I tihnk you'll find X-box owners claim thier version will be better because its more powerful, even though the vast majortiy of multi-format games are made on one concole and directly ported to the others.

Firstly, it wasn't aimed at you!
Secondly, sequels aren't developed just to iron out flaws as you suggested. Sequels are designed to carry on the story, what you are saying is that if a game is perfect why make a 2nd one? In my opinion Shenmue on the Dreamcast is near perfect but because of this Ryo should sail the seas forever instead of going to Hong-Kong? No, you are wrong here.

Here we go. I type a topic all about how everyone has different opinions which means they don't necessarily like all the same games that you (as in whoever's reading this) like, and we get this message by garbe123 who has either not read the original message in this thread, or has completely misinterpreted or taken no note of it.

There are many games I don't want. I don't want Tony Hawk's 4 and 5. I didn't get Tony Hawks 3 because I didn't like Tony Hawks 2 on the Dreamcast. It just doesn't appeal to me. Sure, the Tony Hawks series maybe considered the best in the genre, but it doesn't mean that everyone likes them!

If you think that's the reason then I believe you to be one of the most naive and stupid members of the forums. I am a bigger fan of the Sonic the Hedgehog series than I am of the Mario series yet I am more loyal to Nintendo's consoles and games. I am more likely to get Sega's Skies of Arcadia game than I would many a Nintendo RPG. I would rather Acclaim's Turok games than any Nintendo FPS. No one 'wouldn't want' to play the 'best in it's genre' just because they prefer Nintendo games. Being the best in the genre also relies on opinions. Sure, the games you mentioned maybe the best to you, but they aren't to me, so is that because they're not made by my favourite developers? NO! It's because I prefer other games, not neccesarily by Nintendo, in those genres.

Ah, but I would still not be getting the Halo series, and I, having Shenmue 2 on the Dreamcast, hate the Shenmue series. There's more gameplay in a toaster than there is Shenmue 2! There are one or two games on the X-box I would like to see on the GameCube - Jet Set Radio Future for one, but there aren't many that actually bother me.
I suggest you read the first message in this topic one more time before replying.

No one 'wouldn't want' to play the 'best in it's genre' just because they prefer Nintendo games. Being the best in the genre also relies on opinions. Sure, the games you mentioned maybe the best to you, but they aren't to me, so is that because they're not made by my favourite developers? NO! It's because I prefer other games, not neccesarily by Nintendo, in those genres.

Ah, but I would still not be getting the Halo series, and I, having Shenmue 2 on the Dreamcast, hate the Shenmue series. There's more gameplay in a toaster than there is Shenmue 2! There are one or two games on the X-box I would like to see on the GameCube - Jet Set Radio Future for one, but there aren't many that actually bother me.
I suggest you read the first message in this topic one more time before replying.
For the last time, SPLINTER CELL IS *NOT* going to appear on the GameCube at this present time! It is only for the Xbox and PC!
You go around calling people:
Muppets
Retards
Idiots
If you are perfect then I am glad I am NOT!
Is the GameCube forum utter pants becuase I see more Ninties in here than I do anywhere else. You come in saying in a very sly way that the GameCube is better than the Xbox and PS2 but it is clear to me and most others what you are like! Its always, "that is good, but you should see the GameCubes alternative". Now to me this gets very boring after a while especially since I am not interested which is better as we will always disagree. If you were in the GameCube forum saying how good a game was then that is fine but when you go around into other forums saying the same it gets very annoying, do you not think the Xbox has ever seen a good game? I suggest that you stop calling people as the faults lie from within yourself!
