ok so the subject line was just a catchy title.

but really these nintys are having a laugh, there's like a handful of games that are good on the GC and a shed load (a big shed to) on the x box. and the PS2? well the games companys can't be bothered with it anymore so why should i LOL.
well i might get stuntman and tekken 4 but still.

anyway what i hate about these nintys are the games they say are so good really aint. ok so it's a matter of taste and if i was 5 1/2 i'd love a GC but i'm 20 and i want blood and gore.

most GC owners must be about 10 as they argue like kids and get all up tight if you slate mario and everyone knows sonic is better.

if i had my way sega would still have a console and it would be ninty the game developer and i'd have me sega machine next to an x box and live happlying ever after knowing all the nintys would be crying as they haven't got the guts to buy a non nintendo machine muahahahahhahahahaha


ok so this post will probably encourage them but why can't we all be happy gamers?

oh well naff all i can do except laugh at there little faces and there silly little cube, sav had a GC for about a week and he found a use for the handle LOL

well as you'll see above my comments made Edgy call me a Stereoptypical idiot and then he says that little bit below?

ok fair enough he's never made an x box sucks but i never said it was him that did.

i was getting at the fan boys which Edgy also claimes he isn't so edgy why are you so angry?

if you've got the right attitude to gaming why are you replying at all?

and me to grow up? then maybe so should you as your the one with the 'kiddie' game's machine.

oh here we go not for kids ok then ask most adults what console they go for in the say 18-25 bracket and see how many would say GC over an x box or PS2.

face it most games on x box and PS2 are aimed at gamers who have grown out of ninty's platform world.

i aint a nintendo hater it's just none of the games appeal to me, i want a little bit of realism not much just a little. i don't want every game to look like a cartoon like mario sunshine, Zelda and smash bros melee.

i also want great online gaming and so far the x box looks best supported with 60 games companies supporting. the PS2 closely follows with 16 and nintendo they errrr got 1 sega LOL

everyone to there own and as long as your happy with your GC then good, i'm happy with my PC and there's still a few things i want for PS2 but i really want an x box when x box live comes out.

That's a complete generalisation, that post was written by a confirmed spastic so comparing yourself to him/her/it doesn't really do much for your case.

Yet again a complete generalisation, because of one inbred you seem to have the idea that all Ninty's (does anyone hate that word as much as I do) are the same. No one here hates the Xbox, only morons hate consoles, it's a bit of electrical equipment for fecks sake.

Stereoptypical idiot.

Because the games are cute and fluffy? Grow up. I used to dislike the X-box - mainly because it's controller and because none of the exclusive games appealed to me. I'm a Nintendo fan, and I've never made an 'X-box sucks' topic. You however, seem to have the wrong attitude when it comes to gaming.

What kind of argument is that? If you laugh at quality, innovative and original games then that's your problem, but I think you'll find that the majority of gamers (that's the educated ones) see the GameCube's pre-christmas line up as some of the best titles ever.

I can tell this is not an educated comment as there is not one GameCube game which consists of 'jumping platform to platform'. Also, I challenge you to find a Nintendo game that doesn't take skill or a certain amount of logical and lateral thinking.

Those shots you've seen have been of inside buildings, and I suggest you think a bit more before you're next post. Metroid Prime will contain a healthy balance of quality FPS action both indoors, and outside in the vast areas that Brinstar has to offer.

And by the way, Halo is overhyped. I've played it, and in my opinion, though excellent, it can't compare to the brilliant Deus Ex on PC and PS2. Also, the reason nobody's taking your views into consideration is because you're knocking a game you haven't even played.

yeah but for all the wrong reasons mate.


and i think it's so funny watch ninty's slating my post, look back to a post like the x box sucks one that was written and you'll see that my post is almost done in the same childish way as how a ninty would of done it.

still at least i had a better reason to hate the GC than nintys do to hate the x box, all they say is x box sucks cause it does.
