Get you're red hot E3 News here!

[Steel Shark 100]

Ok Mr.Y, fasten you're seatbelt. You don't want to believe in me, that's pretty sad, so have a seat, you may get dizzy with this news. This is going to hurt you a lot more than me, but I admit a real pleasure for me.

GameSpot can now confirm that Universal Interactive Studios is currently developing Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath of Cortex and the next-generation Spyro the Dragon game for the Nintendo GameCube. As reported previously, the upcoming games are also being developed for the Sony PlayStation 2, the Microsoft Xbox, and the Nintendo Game Boy Advance. I believe the XBOX version to be a different flavor however, we shall see. More options if you're into Crash, so try and be a little happy for once there dude.

And even if they are not the same game, it's better to have different versions on different systems.What's the big deal, I mean I'm not into linear on-tracks type of games anyways.

Now make like the invisible man and dissapear.

[Steel Shark 100]

Hi Elum: It is May 16th to 19th. The main show is the 17th to the 19th.

[ODDBODD]

HEY MR Y, STOP BEING SUCH A BITCH...STARK IS HERE GIVING US HEALTHY INFORMATION HERE. I THINK HE KNOWS A BIT ABOUT THE STUFF THAN YOU DO. ALL 50 OF HIS POSTS ARE LONGER THAN 5 LINES AND HAVE TRUTHFUL INFO.

SO STARK ANY NEWS ON STAR WARS ON XBOX?

[LuxoJr]

STARK IS HERE GIVING US HEALTHY INFORMATION HERE. I THINK HE KNOWS A BIT ABOUT THE STUFF THAN YOU DO. ALL 50 OF HIS POSTS ARE LONGER THAN 5 LINES AND HAVE TRUTHFUL INFO.

***groan*** Not again...

Why on Earth should Steel Shark's opinions be any more valid because he has a connection with the gaming industry? His statements have just as much truth as Mr Y's; and unless you've forgotten, game developers often make late changes to 'facts' before their software is released.

[Mr.Y]

How come not a person here would say anything to a Mario fan if Mario were going multi-platformed? You don't understand. Crash is/was our mascot, so I have right to want it the same. I'm not a Mario fan, but I damn well know I'd be upset if he went off Nintendo. If Odd World went multi-platform half of you would whine your asses like a pacifier-seeking baby.

And SS, I think your info sucks. Yes, you've earned it. If you're gonna state facts, filter out the fiction please.

And ODDBODD, I never even talked to you so leave me the hell alone. I said his news was old and you call me a bitch. I suppose if I said anything in return it wasn't provoked by you. Go grow up, squirt.

[Steel Shark 100]

OK, I finished the beta of Heavens beast, it just got better if that's possible. I played about 4% of this magnificent game. It took about 8 hours. I do believe the game will be about 200+ hours of gaming bliss in total when final. This is one I will be proud to invest in. I am not half bad in gaming talent so I know that it may take 250+ hours for the casual gamer. The incredible thing is it's full on guality throughout.

Abe Babe just like you I love to explore, just love it, this game is all about exploration, among other things of course. Magic, action, stealth,unique creatures, major high level artificial intelligence, such a deep feel of surreal strange beauty. Vast city to jungle swamps to sea's with no end. It really feels like Oddworld in a way.

You use you're characters in every imaginable way possible, in combination or by themselves. All characters are used for various tasks, it' up to to on how. It's totally non-linear. For example you can go through a mountain or around it, or over it, or skip it entirely. I can still go back and search out 10-20 hours of terrain I by passed, who knows what else lurks around in those dark shadows.

Here's an example, you'll like this Abe babe. I decided to use 2 of the characters to scout, one is an expert scout with his own speacial abilities, the other is the main character, the one with the most versatility. I traveled on and on, in a complete opposite direction than the quest will have you go normally. Mind you this was just one of many directions possible. After traveling for 20 minutes I incountered 2 all new types of beasts that traveled in packs.Just put there for extra depth, . You could avoid them or attack them, or follow them to more isolated sections of this vast game.The terrain was always changing, the draw distance is spectacular.

You can see from one vista far to the other, great ambiance and done in such perfect detail. Now when I had to stop, it was because of an impassable area of quicksand. However I could have gone back to my followers and brought back the correct characters to help in crossing the quicksand area.And who knows what's on the other side? This game is beyond anything I can describe, it is soooo much more, you will play it someday and really feel it the way it should be felt.

It is deep and dark, however it has it 's lightness to it as well, a great contrast.

Well on my way back from the quicksand area I spotted something shining in a patch of tall grass about 200 feet away.I investigated it, it was a small amulet, just a portion of one. Where are the other pieces? It can be used for one of the characters that follow you.A power-up for one of it's abilities. Just laying there way of you're main path,incredible. You will need all the power you can get as the game goes along. This creates exploration to the max.You always wonder what's around every corner or every hill. Don't forget the game has plenty of action as well, tons of ways to fight with you're versatile characters, it's all up to you.Powers, magic, weapons, transports that will make Elum of our Forum here just drool. Just two sweet transports thus far, but over a dozen are promised.

Anyway's, I'll explore more in the coming days from time to time and fill you in later.

Oh yes and I wanted to mention the graphics again, you are playing a full on CG movie here, major poly count on all the characters/creatures. Wow this and MO along with a few other gems this Fall, unbelievable.

[Steel Shark 100]

OK MR.Y, I believe everyone here knows where you're coming from, you seem to be a bitter antagonist, just do me a favor and keep you're sour attitude away from me, my life's to sweet to be soured by you're presence.

There is no fiction in you're beloved Crash jumping ship, it's a fact, face it, weather or not it will be the same version or all three different, Quite frankly my dear I dont give a damn. Don't take you're misery out on me. Good luck with Crash, "yesteryears hero", and get back to the other side of the tracks, this is my E3 topic,go to Crash forums or something. You are an obvious troublemaker.

I just wonder how sour you're attitude will be in the coming weeks with all the great XBOX and Gamecube games info coming.

There's nothing else to say, so let's leave it at that, everyone here knows where we both are coming from.

Hey come on now, lay off my friend Oddbodd, I know that he marches to the beat of another drummer, but he's cool, and those are the types believe it or not that stand out in the long run, he's positive and has a zest for life, so just ignore him ok Oddbodd, life's too good to bother with a sour apple.

[Steel Shark 100]

I have just got some more info on another new XBOX title. It's called Hunter.

Developed at High Voltage using the AtlasTech Game Engine, Featuring a third-person perspective, Hunter features denizens of the night who are disguised as mortals and are co-existing with the human race. Gamers can see the true essence of these creatures and are compelled to slaughter them in order to save the world. Users will assume the role of one of four Hunter characters, each imbued with supernatural abilities that become more diverse and powerful throughout the game.

Throughout numerous gothic settings, including a prison execution chamber, a ghoulish burial ground, and a chilling train station, gamers will face down over 30 creature variants, from vampires to unstoppable legions of the undead. To aid in battle, Hunter features an arsenal of weapons including swords, shotguns and axes. Hunter also supports cooperative gaming for up to four people. In cooperative mode, gamers will be able to heal fellow Hunters.

More survival horror coming our way.

[Steel Shark 100]

Another great piece of news is the game Saffire, one of the 10 big ones coming, will be coming to Gamecube. It will be coming to PSX2 as well. The Gamecube is extra nice because of the extra power it contains over PSX2. And now you can choose which version shines above the other, nice to have choices.

I have a meeting with Saffire developers at E3. It's one hot game, a large 3D act/adv that I have put on my most wanted list. Keep you're eye on it as well. It looks and plays great.

Why thank you for the compliments Steel Shark *blushes*

In return I must say it is certainly awesome and an honor to have someone involved in the gaming industry here to let us know about not only Oddworld and Xbox, but also other great games that are upcoming. I along with others here certainly appreciate the info you give.

Now... back onto Heaven's Beast... that description you gave seems totally amazing! That is me alright... explore for 20 minutes in the opposite direction than the games is meant to go. Although I'm sure I'd go back and cover the other 10-20 minutes worth! I'll go anywhere and everywhere. To find whatever I can.

Munch's Oddysee is certainly the game I am looking forward to on the Xbox... but I am going to make sure I don't miss this one either. And that is only the beta version you have played too.

Abe Babe...

[Steel Shark 100]

I have just been looking at a demo of Malice, a reliable source has gotten to me. You know something.... the XBOX is for real, it's a sheer next gen beast.

The game has some beautiful and subtle touches like bump mapping, alpha blending, volumetric fog, and soft, real-time shadows. “Everything in Malice is real time, and everything in the scene is shadowed onto everything else, including every single tooth of every single cog of the clockwork hammer. Also, Alice's hair is physically simulated using inverse kinematics to flop around as she moves and jumps, and even those strands of hair are shadowed onto her face”. This only adds to the real-life effect that Argonaut is trying to achieve with Malice. I mean seeing a tiny mouse with low-down lights that cast scary shadows onto the wall around the corner and play tricks with the player's emotions definitely adds that real-life effect to the game. The graphics department of the game already shows us that the Xbox has power that current next-generation systems do not possess, it’s a good thing that Argonaut decided to develop Malice on Xbox instead of PS2 or Dreamcast – the units would have probably fried trying to handle a game of such graphical caliber. Keep this title on you're mind, it's something speacial. Don't get me wrong I like PSX2, it's just not able to handle this type of game and it's power.

You know I'm going to have to make a top list of up-coming games for all the systems. Once you see them all together you will be astonished at how many games of greatness are coming.Quite honestly I can predict we will be playing about 60 of the 70 best games ever created. They have finally gotten to the level I had always dreamed of. You're going to have to pick from these, that's going to be tough. See ya later.

[LuxoJr]

Don't get me wrong I like PSX2, it's just not able to handle this type of game and it's power.

I don't know about that. Once we get to third and fourth generation PS2 software, you're going to see some amazing things done with Sony's console. Xbox has the additional advantage (besides its faster processor and GPU) of a better design architecture, allowing incredible things to be done with first generation games whilst PS2 designers struggle over the console's initial bottlenecks.

By the time PS2 goes the way of the Saturn, its game designers would have surpassed the graphical quality of the XBox's release library.

[Steel Shark 100]

Hi LuxoJr. You seem to like to contradict me from time to time don't ya. But that's cool, always question, stand up, for what you believe in. Don't forget you're swimming with a shark now,and a shark like's a good clean dispute.And they have been known to bite from time to time when provoked.

But of course you're right about PSX2 3rd and fourth gen games matching XBOX launch titles. They will learn and advance.There will always be 2 or 3 gems coming on PSX2, that's for sure. But..... here's the problem with that. By the time 3rd and fourth gen games on PSX2 are out, I will be playing 2nd and 3rd gen games on the mighty XBOX. Can you dig it.I said "CAN YOU DIG IT"!

Just imagine the incredible advances on the BOX by then, you know the Box will not just sit back and wait for PSX2 to catch up.And don't ever count out Gamecube. Even if you just get 5 gamecube games a year, it's 25 in 5 years time. Sweet extra choices, more quality in you're gaming. Plus an extra DVD, not bad in my book. Gamecube will only be $200 in the States,and a little more in sweet Europe. I mean I spent almost $200 dollars on a simple dinner date last night.You can take a date out to 10 movies for that, you know about 20 hours of fun.Compare that to 5 years of gaming with the Gamecube.

I can tell you're a smart guy Luxo, so I hope you get an XBOX,and Gamecube OK, it'll be more fun for you.

[LuxoJr]

I can dig it. To the man. ***hurls police badge into wall***

Personally, I can't wait to see how the console war pans out, but at this stage it looks as though the Xbox will spread like the fungus we all know and love as Microsoft Windows.

Gamecubes? I'm not sure if I would buy one - mainly because of the games lineup and Nintendo's 3D history. I never liked Zelda or Mario, or even Goldeneye - the 'mature' N64 game.

That doesn't mean I think GC will flop...Nintendo fans are usually pretty devout - I just believe that marketing and product support will drive Microsoft's console much further than its competition...and not necessarily because it's a better machine in the long run.

[Steel Shark 100]

Gamecubes? I'm not sure if I would buy one - mainly because of the games lineup and Nintendo's 3D history. I never liked Zelda or Mario, or even Goldeneye - the 'mature' N64 game. Well that's you're opinion LuxoJr. You have you're right to it.

Don't forget, those were older games that you're mind has an image of, and on a far inferior system the N64. Mario was groundbreaking for it's time, there is no doubt.But it's coming on a power system now, lookout.This is five years later, major time for vast improvements.

Nintendo will never have the amount of games as XBOX and PSX2, but as for quality they will have more of it than PSX2, and be neck and neck with XBOX.

And as for mature games, I'm glad you questioned that. Nintendo is growing up.They are making a concerted effort towards the more mature gamer as well. Proof in point: Metroid, Eternal darkness,Too human,Galleon,Saffire, Resident evil 0,Perfect dark, and two other very promising games with mature themes, soon to be seen at E3. That's 9 and that's just the first generation of them. I mean how many can you play in a year anyway's. Quality is more important than quantity anytime.And these games are sweet, no way around it.

And then you still get Mario, Mario carts next gen,Zelda, waverace, snowboarding 1080, Luigi, which will be killer, you shall see, and of course Rare will be back with many killer titles.

Anyway's its best if possible to play the cream of the crop on all the systems. I just can't wait for E3 to showcase the as of now quite news of Gamecube.People will notice real soon. Maybe even you LuxoJr.Who knows maybe you will be first in line for the Gamecube LuxorJR, that would be something huh.

[LuxoJr]

You're right - Nintendo does seem to be making an effort to get the older market it lost with N64, but they're still making some really idiotic decisions with the new console.

Like proprietary media - again...Didn't they learn the huge downsides that cartridges had over CDs with the 64? That 1.4gb will fill really quickly once texture map files increase and FMV is viewed in DVD quality with added sound quality.

I'll believe that the Gamecube is more than a kiddie console when it physically appears and shows some proper games...but it does seem technological potential.

[Cloverfield]

I seem to have the same view as LuxoJr on the Gamecube... it really doesn't appeal to me at all. Maybe because I have the mindset of "kiddie console" also with games like Mario and *cringes* Pokemon. I grew up on Nintendo systems... the original NES and then the Super NES. I then moved onto PC based games and then came back to consoles only about a year ago when our family got a PSX.

Although Steel Shark, you do mention some good names there in the list of mature games. I think I read Resident Evil 0 will be on another console (could be wrong about this).

I think that Nintendo have cornered their market and seem to do very well in this area. However it is interesting to note that the N64 came out some time after the PSX, and while the price of a PSX is still around $180 (here in Australia), the N64 has dropped way down to about $120 in the period of about 8 months.

Even if there are going to be some more mature titles, I would very much doubt getting a Gamecube... simply because I am definately getting an Xbox and possibly getting a PS2 (depending on what happens with Final Fantasy X and beyond). After all I only have so much time to play games... and usually that's not as often as I would like (unfortunately).

Abe Babe...

[Steel Shark 100]

Abebabe I have this funny feeling that once you see the Gamecube in action or just some of the movies and screenshots coming up you shall be converted, yes Abebabe you shall see you sweet girl you.

I'm going to get a Sharks most wanted list up, it's some list, games have never even come close to what the're going to be. Graphics, sound we all know about, however the artificial intelligence will take the biggest leap forward. See ya a little later.

[Steel Shark 100]

Here you go,the Shark's up-coming wishlist of next gen games. Now keep in mind I have seen all these games in action and or play-tested,I have seen test run video's of various portions of games not shown to the public. I know of the individual game engines behind these games,a very important fact often overlooked, so I know of the possible potential beyond what is already being shown. As well as the developers individual talents, more crucial than anything in the games outcome.

Now remember these are STEEL SHARK'S most wanted,I know there will be some all of you care for at the moment that will not appear on my list, however you never know they may pop up on it soon once I get a closer look at them.But I must tell you I have a very good idea already of what's coming.

Another note,I dig ACTION/ADV,I love to explore and fight,along with a strong element of stealth in my games, and to solve puzzles while I'm at it, I dig the depth of these games.

One more note,I can say with out a doubt about 30 of these titles will be as good or better than any game we have "EVER" played. These games are by far superior in all aspects. Graphics,sound capabilities,level design, and most importantly and over-looked the artificial intelligence. And remember I have not picked this list blindly, these games have had good looks by you're game buddy the Shark.

Resident Evil 0 Gamecube
Rare's many up-comers Gamecube
Metal GearX ( Could be near top of list if done correct, and made exclusive for XBOX version, we shall know at E3.)


Some extra games to think of other than 3D act/ADV are:

Mario cart Gamecube
1080 snowboarding Gamecube
Waverace Gamecube
Project Gotham XBOX
GT3 PSX2
Jetpackers XBOX

Well there you have it, my list,you can say that 30 of the games will be top 35 games of all time, they are that good. The true next gen of games are finally upon us.

I will get up and personal with these games at E3, I have behind closed door looks with many of them. More details later.

I noticed that XBOX led the way with 12 top picks on my top 30 list. With Gamecube getting 11.PSX2 got 5, and P.C. only 2. PC gaming in my book is getting hurt by the new power of consoles, but will never die, they just get more powerful as time goes, they will be back with some punch.

OK now for a swim and workout with the weights, this is actually more exhausting than weightlifting.

[Cloverfield]

*Blushes from the nice things Steel Shark says*

That's a very impressive list of games there... some I have read about/heard of, but also some titles that I have not.

Seeing that your tastes in gaming are very similar to mine (I'll include RPG in the types of games I like to play too)... I would probably trust your judgement on a lot of these titles.

By far Munch's Oddysee is the most anticipated game for me, followed by Final Fantasy X. Then I would say (even though I have never seen it before) the Heaven's Beast game... you've got me hooked in on that one already.

Other games from the list that I would like to really like to play include Matrix, Halo, Malice and Resident Evil 0 (yes, I've included one Gamecube title there).

Of course there are others, but they are the main ones... and of course I can't include the ones that I don't know what they are yet.

Abe Babe...

[Steel Shark 100]

Five days to E3, thank the Gods above. Here is some good news for you outside of America gamers.

Now you can buy American XBOX and Gamecube systems, and believe me after you see what's coming you will want to. The reason is this: ELECTRONICS BOUTIQUE SELECTS ENRON AND INTO NETWORKS TO DELIVER GAMES ON DEMAND.

The Electronics Boutique games on demand service will be the first application to launch as part of a strategic alliance between Enron and Into. After a thorough evaluation of providers, Enron has selected Into as its preferred vendor for software on demand technology. The aim of the alliance is to optimize and increase delivery of streaming applications over broadband connections using software on demand technology.

Beginning June 1, Electronics Boutique will offer customers leading game titles via its website powered by Into's streaming software on demand technology. This technology allows users to access software without requiring downloading or installation. To ensure security, the content will be encrypted and encoded using Into's proprietary technology. Through its alliance with Enron, Into will provide technology integration services and an e-commerce solution. Electronics Boutique will be responsible for marketing and customer service.

Into's streaming technology platform provides publishers and retailers another distribution channel for generating revenue and gives customers a new option for renting games. Electronics Boutique will acquire the streaming rights from leading publishers to aggregate popular and newly-released game titles.

More info at E3, but the deal will enable people to rent over the net, so you can play all the American games early instead of waiting for them in you're neck of the woods.American systems will cost you less in the long run than in Europe or Australia etc...

No confirmation as of yet on XBOX or Gamecube rentals as of yet, however the systems are still 6 months away. A well trusted person I have faith in confirms to me that XBOX and Gamecube games will be available as well when they finally get here. Until then the program will be PC only.

We will have to see how this will work with XBOX and Gamecube online game networks, via the internet, but at least there is another option for outside America gamers.More news of this to come, I'll keep you posted...

[Steel Shark 100]

A little news a spy of the Shark's has garnered... Now it's not confirmed, but I would say you can count on it, usually my informats are hip to there news reports.

Squaresoft to announce Nintendo GameCube Support at E3
GameCube to garner support of the biggest RPG developer in the world at E3. Am I under this impression? I am not sure. I have talked to 3 or 4 different people about it, and nothing is definitive. I am inclined to believe that there will have to be some sort of announcement regarding Square...just because every media agent will ask it of both Nintendo and Squaresoft. Good or bad? No clue. A large announcement? You know...it is very possible that Squaresoft and Nintendo have pulled the wool WAY over our eyes....and if any company can do it, it is Nintendo. Nintendo did say on its website with regards to E3, "Be there and be square..." Stay tuned for this one.

Capcom to bewilder GameCube fans with secret project. Supposedly this secret project that Capcom had been working on in one of its internal studios may be headed for the Nintendo GameCube. What do I think? I think Capcom and Nintendo are getting along beautifully...and this internally developed title would be perfect for the Nintendo GameCube... Stay tuned. FFX on the CUBE, don't bet against it.

[Steel Shark 100]

Just been checking a top secret video/non playable,of a rather large up-coming game from Nintendo for Gamecube.

It's nice to have connections, the little game is Mario/Luigi, that's right, bottom line: WOW,when people see this at E3 it will be the talk of the show.

Evidently, Gamecube Mario/Luigi game may be a two-disc game-and not because of space limitations. There will be one disc for each character! "create-your-own adventure/choose-your-own-adventure elements" as well as "undetermined communication features." The two discs would supposedly interact with one another and feature actions that would have real-time consequences.

Footage opens with a dark and stormy night as the camera zooms in on a gigantic mansion on a hill, bombarded by lightning and thunder. The scene then changes to the mansion's interior as the front door swings open, revealing a familiar silhouette. Lighting crashes and we see the shadowy figure turn to reveal the concerned face of… Luigi!

Terrified, Luigi slides down a stairway banister as spooky ghosts pursue him. Luigi moves just in time too, as an enormous chandelier hits the ground right where he was standing! The effect of the glass shattering into small pieces is spellbinding, as is the shot of Luigi's tonsils swinging like church bells as the camera zooms into his screaming mouth.It's a ramped up and more detailed video than what was released months ago, more footage as well.

The entire demo looks fantastic, complete with facial expressions, use of lighting and incredibly detailed animation throughout. What's more astounding is that all of the action of the demo goes by very quickly, demonstrating some pretty awesome power on the part of the Gamecube! One can only fantasize what this would be like to play-for now.

The two games can allegedly interact with each other or remain separate while each character has different tasks that they can choose. The outcome of the tasks affects things in the game in real time, so that every time you play every decision has a different outcome.

In other words you can play with a partner on two tv's go in seperate locations and then when you choose you can join at a predetermined local. Or you can split-screen it. Also one player can play at anytime and have the other player join in at anytime.Or you can play as a team from beginning to end, your choice.We shall see the facts at E3, however you can expect something along these lines.Forget about that five year old image of Mario, it's the next century now, and it shows.

I've never seen soo much excitement in games with E3 coming in a few days, they are so advanced now compared to what we have seen to date.

[Steel Shark 100]

Hello, hello, out there.

No reaction to my latest news items, not one comment. Not one reply to EB world renting games over the net worldwide real soon, Square working with Nintendo,or Mario info news that is big news,I mean underground behind the scenes kind of news,and not one comment.Have I been blackballed? Hello....

I mean look at some of the other topics, lots of reaction to whatever that's about. I think I'm doing something nice here and well frankly it looks like no one really gives a hoot.

I have given a few bits of news at a Gamecube forum and at a XBOX forum and the reaction goes out the roof.Am I wasting my time here? Don't bother to answer, I already pretty much know the answer,proofs in the pudding. I am very busy, and now with E3 really busy.

The Steel Shark may have to swim in other waters,I mean this is kinda becoming a real waste of time for me, and obviously my posts are even a bigger waste of time for you.I like this place and MO, but I don't like talking to myself.

Hello, hello......

[Steel Shark 100]

Well I'm here again, anyone out there....

There is a MO interview with Lorne Lanning over at xboxaddict.com if anyone can here me go check it out.

There is also mention of a sea rex, got you're attention now dont I Elum.However Lorne is very vague about it.

[Steel Shark 100]

I've just noticed that the xboxaddict interview is old news,sorry.I better mention this before I get a smartass comment like "yes we already know, that's old cheese", you know you'll get a comment like that, none other, that's for sure. So long.

[LuxoJr]

Whatever happened to just doing things without expecting thanks?

[Steel Shark 100]

There it is the one comment and it's from "only something negative or opposite of my thoughts Luxo". Anytime you here from him it's negative.

Who ever said I'm asking for thanks.Where did you get that from? I want a response, a conversation on topics that interest me, some kind of common interest.The last thing I want is thanks.I get that from my girlfriends when I'm in bed dude.

I love MO, but there's more coming than just Mo.There is no interest here at least for the most part on other games,that's too bad.

All I've come up with Luxo, and all you come up with is that post above,what a joke. You don't think I know where you're coming from, I have known you're true feelings from the beginning.Why don't you do like you're little buddy Crash13 and dissapear. Once his beloved Crash jumped ship he vanished, too embarrased to face the music I quess.Luxo you always stuck with him like glue so do so now,vanish from my topic as of now.You're just too negative at all times,face it.Anything I have ever said you have come down on it with total negativity.

It's too bad I can't throw you out of my posts phisically,so I ask you to keep away from me,my life is all positive,I don't need you're negative bitterness.And wake-up,get all the systems,stop fooling yourself just because you got to spend a little more cash.

Have I been blackballed? Hello...

I think I'm doing something nice here and well frankly it looks like no one really gives a hoot.

The Steel Shark may have to swim in other waters,I mean this is kinda becoming a real waste of time for me, and obviously my posts are even a bigger waste of time for you

That sort of sounds like a complaint, doesn't it? And you're still asking for gratitude of some kind for a service you've rendered to us, right?

I wasn't damning your information in any way, and I never have. I'm free to offer my opinion about consoles like anybody else on these forums - but I do object to somebody acting like their opinions are graciously bestowed upon an ignorant gaming community.

Well I don't know about others Steel Shark, but I read this topic every time it gets an update. I guess a lot of people don't really bother with it because all they want to hear about is Oddworld (with the exception of a few). Although I'm not extremely into games, I still find this kind of news interesting, so please keep it up.
