What Gamecube Really Means [Next Generation]

[A Black Falcon]

Body Harvest, no I haven't played it. Sounds like an FPS, and if so, then it isn't innovative, sorry. Far as I'm concerned, if you can fit a game cleanly into one particular genre, then it isn't innovative. It's just another game with different characters and a different story.

Nope. It's a third person GTA predecessor... large world, fairly open, but you progress along a path -- it's just a wide, roaming path. :) You travel through time to stop an alien invasion... shooting bugs and all that. And you can take over any vehicle in the game do drive around and do things with... either as part of the main game or just to wander around (though because of water and stuff you can't bring every vehicle everywhere, you can just use them in the region they're in. But there are so many vehicles that that doesn't really matter...). Fun game, but yeah, it is a bit dated, and the save system is lacking... oh well, good anyway.

I'm not bashing the Eyetoy because Nintendo didn't think of it, I'm not as biased as that (you'll note I referred to the E-Reader as a gimmick too). I wouldn't buy one if it WERE made by Nintendo. I just see very little use for such a peripheral, and many of the games I've seen which use the Eyetoy don't look all that great.

E-Reader is a gimmick. Eyetoy has more potential. Maybe not fully realized potential, but potential...
