Oh joy of joys!


Which console, do you think, would break first when you dropped it onto another console?

The Gamecube seems very hollow to me, and is also rather small.

The Dreamcast is wider, and I think it's pretty heavy.

But without a doubt, I think the PS2 would win. It's bloody huge, and could break any console into pieces.




So what's the difference between this, and another topic saying that the Gamecube has a faster processor so it must beat PS2?

None.


However, what should be argued are the second and first party games, because that is the only reason why hardcore gamers buy consoles. Sod the third party, those are on any system.

That was my tip of the day.

It's a joke Snipe, don't worry.

Speaking of which, does anyone know of a rough release date?

Crappy hell! It's the 20th of November. Not long until Christmas.

(Hello.)

Hi. Where've you been?

..No, let me guess. You've seen a man about a dog.

(Not really. That's just what I say.)

The word on the web is next Autumn, but you know what the web is like. That's the latest I've heard, anyway. Why not e-mail Nintendo? I'm sure they'd reply.

The answer to your question, Grix, is the PS2. A recent test at the Open University involving 10 Megadrives, 10 PS2's, 10 Gamecube prototypes, 10 PSones, 10 PS, 10 Dreamcasts, 10......need I go on?

Under experimental conditions, the PS2 wasn't working 100% of the time, PS 90%, PSone 80%, Dreamcast 60%, Gamecube 50%, Gameboy 30%. The Megadrive, which was both dropped on and dropped, still worked after every experimental test.

We would have tested the N64, but we couldn't find any owners willing to let theirs be dropped upon or dropped. (We couldn't find any N64 owners full stop, actually.)

So there you have it. The results have been forwarded to yourself and the appropriate authorities, and I'm hoping to be awarded a Nobel Prize next year for the findings, although WHICH Nobel Prize I am not as yet sure.

The coolest ISP ever!
In my opinion, the ISP is the best I have ever used. They guarantee 'first time connection - everytime', which they have never let me down on.
Wonderful...
... and so easy-to-use even for a technophobe like me. I had my website up in a couple of hours. Thank you.
