You know, not many non-Capcom games number themselves past "Three." And even fewer past "four"


Super Mario Brothers. Super Mario Bros 2. Super Mario Bros 3. Super Mario... World.

Metroid. Metroid 2: Return of Samus... Super Metroid

Legend of Zelda. Zelda 2: Adventure of Link. Legend of Zelda... A Link to the Past/Kamigami no Triforce

Grand Theft Auto. GTA London. GTA 2. GTA III... GTA Vice City

(Final Fantasy is an OBVIOUS exception)

Oh please, don't tell me that you rely on all those PS2 Review mags..

It's a great game probably one of the most original games ever made.

Nope. The only Magazine I read is Gameinformer which covers all the consoles, and it said that Manhunt was good. But stealth mixed with GTA's controls... that just sounds like a bad idea from the get go, and I honestly don't care to play a game in which I can... do what you described earlier.

X-Play is a show BTW, and Driver 2 and Driv3r sucked so I don't expect the next to be any better.

Now they're calling it DrIVer?

Oi! Give me a break. What is the point of making a game and giving it a fancy uber-hyped name if you can't deliver? And do they really expect people to buy DrIVer after how crappy Driv3r was?

This is all Gamespot knows about it.

Hacked xboxes caught RED-HANDED on Halo 2 matchmaking. I hope these cheaters get whats coming to them, in the cornhole.

OMG Halo 2 Cheaters

I was in that game, I didn't record the video, however, that was another guy in that. (My live gamertag is that same as my name here, you see it a few times in that video)

BTW, has anyone got to play the Batman Begins game yet? The reviews are so-so on Gamespot, I was wondering if any of you had anything to say about it?

Or at least mull over renting it.

Meh, DAH is really tiresome now, I think I'll take it back to EB tomorrow.

Anyone check out that VideoGame Vixens thing that keeps on showing up on IGN?

You mean G4? Because they have shown that ridiculous show at least twice a day for the last two weeks.

It was a silly idea to begin with(which can be said about most of G4's shows and "specials")

IMO: no, it wasn't.

It was like every other hip-to-the-jive show on G4: filled with false enthusiasm, bored looking women, and overflowing with MTV style(which is bad, if you don't know).

*sigh*

The G4 execs are bound and determined to run their network into the ground, and I can't for the life of me figure out WHY they messed with what made Tech TV work. Without a doubt, the WORST BUYOUT EVER.

Even X-Play has suffered: what, with the disembodied voice changing and Adam and Morgan having to do those abomnible "Gay Games" and "Games for Cheap B******" segments.

Favorite 'owned' consoles by generation::
Vectrex | Atari 2600 | NES | SNES | PS | PS2

But right now my PSP is taking up most of my time!

And I will be buying both the XBOX 360 and the PS3.
Even if it was perfect, someone would be upset.

Well, barring a terrible controller, I think Super Smash Brother's 3 ONLINE already has me sold on the Revolution.

Terrible controller?

All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger.

If the Revolution Controler is something stupid and gimicky, then it might make me change my mind.

Otherwise, SSB3 Online has me sold on it.

Have you even seen it? The controller?
