GTA:SA Xbox release very soon.

Much better graphics, new weapons and features, that'll be something to buy. thumbsup.gif

I can't wait for that. Well, the PC version, anyway. It'll be a lot of fun playing that at a LAN party ohmy.gif
BurnSide
The PC version better again.
I've seen screenshots of Carl standing at one end of San Fierro and looking out over the whole city and bay. There's such a massive polygon count compared to the PS2 version you can see for MILES.
Janiel
Of course it's gonna take a hell of a PC to be able to do that. I think I almost can with mine. Almost.

Just you wait until the ps3 comes out.

Play on or play with?

I know I'll be playing with this awesome feature of the 360 when it comes out.
BurnSide
It will probably come with the plain white one, and each extra faceplate will be 50 bucks. hmm.gif

The Revolution is coming.
Stop talking about lesser systems.


Will you be ready to take hold of the Revolution?

Judging by the sale of Nintendo consoles thus far, I think the only thing the "Revolution" will revolutionize is a new all time low in sales.

I would say more. like 80 bucks, they'll probably be 50 bucks in America.
And they'll probably be really cheesy, like those Batman Console skin stickers.

So you didn't even bother to check the link, did you?

As for price, I wouldn't go that high. Maybe 10 bucks, which for a locking piece of plastic is still quite a bit. Maybe that Aluminum one isn't named that just for the color... If it's real metal, I'd grab it in an instant.

You can't tar all console skins with the same brush if you haven't seen all of them. I've seen amazingly high quality skins (ones that you can drop a knife on and they won't so much as scratch), but the quality reflects on the price. 30 bucks is high, although for those that move their hardware around often it would probably be necessary.

You don't have to customize it if you don't want to. I love the option, though.

I'm devoted to nintendo.
They started it all RPG's(Zelda,Mario)
They are always on top and always will be.

I used to be just like you. Then I learned how to read benchmarks. I also learned how to see from a different point of view. Instead of being a stupid fanboy, I learned how to be a smart gamer.

Soon(Or much later) you'll learn how to stop lying to yourself.

Now, back to those awesome faceplates...

Neither Zelda nor Mario are RPG's.

Zelda is an Action Adventure, and Mario is a Side Scroller Adventure.
If you think those are RPG's, you're delusional.
They were on top about 6 years ago. Before Xbox and Ps2. Probably even before Ps1. Nintendo's been sucking its own exaust for years. It seems now that they are finally running out of gas.


But you're right about one thing. They did start RPG's. They had the first few Final Fantasy's. Then, in case you're too ignorant to notice, Square signed in with Sony, who had a far more superior system. I don't think Nintendo's had one RPG since worth mentioning.

Nintendo were destroyed by the PSX, it has never recovered.
Technically, it was destroyed by the Genesis, but they were pretty neck and neck.
MonkeyMan
But then the stupid saturn incident thing happened. Why would they go for an expensive cd POS instead of a brand new console? It's like those stupid lara croft memory cards. Nothing stupid and Novel, first party or otherwise, will sell well(exception of DDR, of which i have been addicted to by those extremely good asians.). That is why if PSX stayed as an add on to Nintendo super nintendo, Our current industry today would be very very messed. That is why sega is now a software only company. that is why im buying a PS3. That is enough of me talking i guess.
