The Playstation truly does suck, it's best game is time spliters and that isn't even as good as Goldeneye! And will the (expanshion pak) PS2.1 coming out it is a true mess up by sony. Mean while... As the X-box losses fans and gains price. There is only one console left to pick up the fallen fans. THE NINTENDO GAME CUBE! This tiny little peice will wipe clean the rest! It's true.., It's true.

Actually although i believe simon is being a little forth right i agree with what he said.

Mario Kart and Mario are still honored today and the Dreamcast had excellent launch titles.

Timespitters is like all shooters addictive but that loading time is so stupid and the lack of Auto aim makes it awkward to shoot people high up.

On the other hand it is very addictive made by Dr Doak and is so far the greatest PS2 game and as the back of the game said:

Simon your believe that Nintendo is the best and you don't sympathise with any other view.

I love Nintendo and I prefer the 64 to the Playstation but I can understand why people have a Playstation.

It is all on preference so by all means express your views on your favourite console but don't attack the opposition like you just did.

Simon think before you write
