With Sony securing two of the biggest gaming franchises in the world Lara and the 6million in a year selling GTA series the future looks rosy for a least one of the major consoles.

Yes the GC does seem to have an interesting lineup...

Its just a shame for us Europeans they seem to release consoles in the Spring, leaving us with only the launch lineup to play with until the Christmas launches arrive at the end of the year.

Maybe their will be a time when console titles are only released in time for Christmas?

Its no problem now Mr.shanks.

Freeloader is out on August 5th and with the help of those lovely people at dvdboxoffice.com you can get games such as Resident Evil for under £30

Although, i must admit, seeing "the legend of zelda" already in the play top ten (it wont even be released till next year!) is slightly worrying...

That's not a lot of use now when my GC is sat at home gathering dust because of poor game releases that I have already played or got on my PS2. I have owned a GC for the last 3months and I have bought 0 GC games and 6 PS2 games in that time.

Could i just ask why you bought a GC? Parden my enquiry but usually i find that people buy consoles to play games on?

You've bought no games for you GC?... I think I may have discovered the reason you’re not finding it much fun to play on?

The console wars?... Are they really an extended discussion regarding the ambiguous superiority of different systems hardware capabilities and software quality or is it merely a game of one-upmanship in an attempt by individuals to hide their sexually inadequacies and insecurities?

Let the hard core gamers buy the first batch of bug ridden hardware for a v.high price. Wait for the games to follow, then buy the machine. But then some people just have to have it on day 1 don't they!

I would if there was anything worth buying I mean where are they all, Mariocart, Resident Evil, Zelda, Perfect Dark 2, Metroid Prime. Games like ISS2, Bloody Roar and Super Smash Bros are not in the same league and are games you would only buy if you were desperate which I am not.
