On a new computer, nontheless. I'm guessing none you noticed me being gone over the summer....oh well. Computer broke right at the start of summer, so we got a new computer. It's all good. :)
I see I've dropped a few places in the Fantasy Baseball League...to 18 games back. Damn it.

Hmm, if Nintendo were as smart as Konami or some other third-parties they would include all of the enhancements from the PAL version of Metroid Prime in this new budget-priced version. I'd certainly re-buy MP if it included the higher difficulty settings, extra voices, and all of the other enhancements from the PAL port. Hell if Konami could do that with the SH2 GH edition why can't Nintendo?
Wow! It's been a very LONG time since I've been here.
Guys, I miss you all. Really.
The thing is, (it's developed quite the while ago), I'm just not into gaming anymore, like I was. I mean I don't play my Xbox regularly anymore. I haven't ever bought a game since launch. (I AM GETTING PROJECT GOTHAM RACING 2 THOUGH, AND HALO 2). Overall, I'm just not into it that much. You know, how for example, many of you all's parents played while they were young, but stopped because they "grew up". Well I think that's happening to me now.
Not because I'm embarrassed of it. No! When i DO play, its very fun and enjoyable. I'm just not getting the desire to do it, and spend $50 per on games.
Yeah, that's me lately.
How've you all been?
Oh, another thing: I still prefer Xbox and MS, but I'm not all ranty about it anymore.
Quote:Namco shipped over 1.6 million units on the first day of Soul Calibur II at retail for GCN, PS2, and Xbox. (Shipping, of course, is not the same as selling.) "The release of Soul Calibur II marks a monumental moment in Namco's already rich video game history," said Namco's Chief Financial Officer, Robert Ennis. "Never before has a Namco title sold as well in its U.S. debut and we hope that this is just a glimpse at what is to come for the 'Soul' franchise." Read our Soul Calibur II review here.
The GameCube version has been outselling the PS2 and Xbox version thanks to the inclusion of our favorite hero, Link, to the fighter's lineup as well as heavy advertising.
Quote:In our news update yesterday about Metal Gear Solid: The Twin Snakes, neither Konami nor Silicon Knights said that they had delayed the game as rumored. But today EBGames is showing a new date of March 5th, 2004 instead of the initial date of November. The MGS game we have been awaiting for since the N64 may have to wait a few months longer. Recently EBGames put up a new date for Pikmin 2 and it turned out to be true, so we wait again for confirmation.
That would definitely hurt sales of the game not to mention the fact that I don't want to wait an additional 4 months for the game!!
