I couldn't believe it when I heard this piece of news. Apparently Bill Gates and the X-Box teams have been having serious doubts over many of the games that developers are hoping to bring to the console, so they decided to thoroughly check eack developer, to make sure that they will be producing suitable games!

Worse was to come, as Crystal Dynamics were the only ones to fit the bill. All other developers have pulled out of X-Box development, and have pledged to develop for PS2, Dreamcast and Gamecube, taking each systems abilities into account.

In another strange move the X-Box may no longer be called the X-Box! As Crystal Dynamics are only developers trusted to bring the games Microsoft want you to play they going to rename the console the Gex-Box.

The launch titles are rumoured to be:

Gex 4 Re-enter the Gecko
Gex Team Racing
Gex: Cold Blooded Killer.

I think it should be called the Grix-Box.


Perhaps I'll have a little "chat" with Mr. Gates again...

You got my hopes up for a minute and then I realised you were just pi**ing about.

I really want the X-Box to fail. Sorry but I hate monopoly$oft.
