Well, if you lot had come up with some better topics than that lame Dreamcast Ripple Effect and The Future of Gaming then I would be forced to cause more arguements!
So, I know who you all side with, Ant...Playstation, Sniper...Nintendo, but which is the better, Nintendo...according to the system specs anyway, the machine on the whole is much more advanced, although the Playstaion does have CD's and it looks as though Nintendo will NEVER have a CD format game!!!The Playstation was released earlier and has a much higher list of games...but then again more of Nintendo's Games are raved about and Nintendo do have Rare, a VERY good asset in my book, valuable as well!
I think that the best console would be the N64 but overall the Playstation, despite the inferior capabilities has shown a better performance, but if we ask the question Nintendo or Sony, I think Nintendo win that the Gamecube is set to be ace and the PS2 has already been deemed a failure by a majority of Nintendo fans!
The Game...I am sooooooooooooo bored.....:o(

Do you really think there is 100 excellent games on any system?
Look a better example might be i prefer 1 excellent 64 games to 2 good Playstation ones
Bu there will be a differen't story on the gamecube with 500 developers with gamecube development kits and over 100 gamecube games announced mostly from third partys...
Also what about Nintendo only companys (second party):
Rare
Silicon Knights
Retro Studios

Yeah yeah very funny. I suppose you would use some of your 'superbly' funny wit to have a go at him.
Anyway, I was joking about FM. I was talking about what you said about my Smuggler's Run review.
And what does chastened mean??

Few Nintendo games are worth getting! Is that right? I have 50 Nintendo games and I love (not like) all of them.
I shall quote a fact which i and many others including a few PS fans agree with PS are quantity Nintendo are quality. Nintendo may not have as many 3rd party developers delevering a slightly improved version of the same game year by year but instead they get that one developer to make one game with the best bits of all the PS versions stuck into it.
Proof quality not quantity examples of these game are Resident evil 2, Ridge Racer 64, Wipeout 64 and many others. Just because Nintendo don't have 200 good games doesn't create a problem as they have 100 excellent games and how many do you want?

Huh? Was I being nasty about your writing somewhere? If it looked that way, then apologies, I wouldn't hurt a fly, let alone your feelings.
FantasyMeister: suitably chastened.
