video games # 2

well since the first one was closed, i figured id make a new one. i just got a new video card for my pc, the ati radeon 9000, with 128 mb ddr ram. its really good, runs unreal tournement 2003 perfectly.

Lovely...

I only saw one offtopic post at the end...

Any, my comp needs a new card. It can play games like Jedi Knight, but it freezes when I try Indy Jones or Jedi Outcast.

I have to buy one of the better systems. I'm so sick of my Playstation.

I see all these comercials for these cool looking games for the new systems.

Screw it, maybe I'll just go play some old school Nintendo.

Computer games are the best.
Sure the graphics may not be top notch, but the controls and features are always far superior than console games.

idunno..i'm a pc gamer, but playing games like Grand Theft Auto 3 and Need for Speed just seem better on the Playstation. The driving ability is just always smoother and easier to maneuver. I run almost every game at full settings on PC.

The ability to create and edit practically everything on the PC is VERY NICE, and having all those extra programmable buttons at hand is more than you could ask for.

I say forget the console for everything but racing games.

console games are superior in control to EVERYTHING but strategy and FPS.

Also way too easy to beat.
Nintendo hasn't made one hard game yet!
All easy kid games.
That's why I dont buy any.
Beat them in 2 weeks, and your stuck with a $50 CD.

The PC makes better Grand Prix games, when it comes to racing.

Console games, of course, are made tailored to the control pads designed for them, which always means the games gel perfectly with the controller except when they CAN'T, in which area strategy games and FPSs are two good examples.

That's cause I am a busy man.
I just have to rent Mario for an additional week and it's beat.
I'm telling ya, if Zelda doesn't tingle my nuts, I'm gonna throw my Gamecube out the window!!!
*frustrated*

foolish you! the autumn is JAM-PACKED with tens of AAA-titles and you complain!

And Nintendo delays all of their games!😠

About time, after the GC's crappy launch line-up...

haha..childish ush! pikmin, wave race and super smash bros melee satisfied me

Nah, Ush is right. Thank God Rogue Leader was out.
Too bad I had to wait from November to May to get another good game: RE.

That was for the European launch, Mah, not the actual launch. The actual launch line up was very poor.

as was teh xbox's and ps2's and n64's. very few systems have good launch lineups. most systems have 1 good game. but come out with a bunch of good ones later on during their span, which is what gamecube is doing. xbox looks like the next decent game will be halo 2.

GCs launch line up was generally considered the worst ever. N64 having Mario pretty much made up for it on the spot. PS2 had an enormous back catalgoue built in.

you're full of it! I've not seen ANY place where GC's launch line up has been considered the worst! PS2 on the other hand was cataztrophically bad, many thought it would be a failure until suddenly the games came flowing shortly after.
