Ex-Box

Well, I got to play the X-Box properly. To be frankly honest...the games weren't exactly amazing. Halo, regardless of being quite overwhelming, feels like some sort of extended version of Turok:Dinosaur Hunter. Which was very tedious. I played DOA3. Wow! Amazing! It looks really nice! It's got new moves! New characters! Still pretty much the same as the second game. Oh. It looks nice.

The pads flippin' huge as well...as is the console. I should wait for Jet Set Radio Future, then I'll pass greater judgement.

It WAS funny

Alright, Digitiser is now a steaming pile of cack. Opinion is diverse for before it lost every bit of credibility - now, it is updated 3 times a week, not 6; it's lost all contact with three gaming journos(controversial Stuart Campbell, opinionated Tony Mott and 'Bad Influence' Violet Berlin); it thinks it's funny to have a crack at minorities and not majorities('I know, let's have ANOTHER dig at rock fans'); judges most games on the hype they receive - if a game has had no hype, it won't get a great mark. Frankly, it's now just another poor PlayStation2 mag in a thin dress. Well, it was funny.

digi is toss, do-you-see?

Sorry I'm a bit late on the topical front, but I gave up on Digitiser years ago. It isn't funny. They talk crap constantly, they’re practically the dictionary definition of ‘hypocritical’, and their reviews are just silly. The die hard fans claim it's still good because it's parodying conventional magazines, but that's just an attempt to hide the truth...Digitiser is just plain bad. The restricted format is no excuse either - bad journalism can't be passed off because it's Teletext. Digitiser had it's benefits pre-internet, but I really can't understand how anyone sane would subject themselves to such rubbish anymore...

You know....I haven't seen Sonic Advance out yet for North America. What's up with that? How much longer is it going to be?

I'm not even bothering about buying another console at least until Winter 2002. Although.....I may rent them out before then.....

No monet?

Oh my! All these games/consoles coming out in February/March in the UK. Far too much. Games: MGS2, VF4, Sonic Advance/ X-Box and many launch games, Gamecube(I think) and lauch titles, and some game I saw on Thumb Bandits called 'Ivo' which looked very nice. Unfair!

WWTBAM?2

Your joking right ? Shenmue 2 is much better than that.

MGS2

Did anyone enter that competition to have your name in the game ? You just gave your name and stuff and if you won it would be on one of the enemy soldiers dog tags.
That would be cool to have your name in a game like MGS2

Dino Planet

Oh yeah , stupid me , thats the new Starfox game , it looks wicked.

Bilge

Digitser used to be good. Now it sees it fit to become what it hated; changing the staff, losing anything humorous, giving 'trendy' games high marks (rating WWTBAM?2 above Shenmue II) and just plainly sucking. I don't know why I still read the damn thing.

Tasty

Hooray! Because we in Britain have to wait longer than America to get MGS2, we get some sort of cool limited edition version. I can't understand why Australia have Wipeout Fusion before us, though...

Dinosaur planet was a project that was in dev for the N64 but has since moved to the GC and now stars the Star Fox team (damn slippy)

What

Can I just say I hate Digitiser so much . Those guys are SOOO far up Sony's **** they should have suffocated years ago.

Also whats Dinosaur Planet ?

Coming from a name such as Digitiser I seriously doubt it.

First post in ages

As it is. Dinosaur Planet looks faaantastic! I thought that English companies were getting crap at making games, with only racing games coming from here. But mighty Rareware have proven me wrong! Sure, Digitiser (teletext-based thing) got really annoyed as they thought of the name (apparently), but this is bloody furry great stuff.
