My brother finally got his Gameboy Advance and his first game is Sonic Advance. However, I have not been able to get near it....(grrrr...) Oh well, I'll let him off the hook for now, as I have been busy anyway. When I do have a bit of time....I've been under the weather.
I too have not been impressed with any of the new consoles thus far or the majority of their games. However, isn't this the way it is for at least the first year when a console launches? Usually it isn't until the 2nd year that the good games (if any) are revealed. Anyway...As far as I'm concerned...my money is staying in my pocket for a little while longer. Oh....wait! What am I talking about!? What money?

Why did I get a PlayStation 2?!?
* - you should see this article as some sort of 'angry rant', one which shows people 'the other side' to a certain situation.
Oh God. The games industry is just rubbish now. 'But look at all those games coming out!' They cry. Sorry, but Sega were always the best games company, as they have a huge list of innovation in games. And because they've gone everywhere, I don't know what to do. Here's a brief:
-The PS2 is rubbish. Yes, I know games like GTAIII, DMC and Pro Evolution Soccer have recently come out, but...where's the heart?!? I got Klonoa 2. That had heart, but it was way to short. Lovely graphics. That and Freak Out, which is quite slow and confusing. And apart from Timesplitters 2 and VF4(both sequels), there is little to look forward to that has a soul. Apart from Soul Calibur 2.
-The X-Box is poor. Halo is just rubbish(I don't care about what you can do - it's far too non-linear, so you spend ages looking for action), the Star Wars game is a rehash. I await JSRF, but I don't want to spend £300 on a huge radiator of a console. The only games that seem good and original for it are by Sega.
-The Gamecube...lacks. No game but Super Monkey Ball has impressed me on it. Good games again by Sega?
This Dreamcast defunct-o thing has really been bad. No Sega console means no nice. Boo hoo.
