I've hated these damn things since the NES. I've ALWAYS only had the "winning" system between them, but now I think I'm screwed. I avoided the Dreamcast flop, and I was ever so glad when they ported RE:CV to the PS2, but now GameCube has all rights to the RE series?!? I was gonna buy a PS2 when GC came out and the price dropped, but now what am I gonna do?

I just buy all the systems, I started doing this several years ago, when an awsome new game came out, but dag nabbet, it was for a system I didnt own, so, I started buying all the big ones, my Nintendo, N64, and Dreamcast are all sitting side by side, and I love em all, defently going to get a Game Cube, though I doubt it will replace my N64 completely, not at first.... seeing how my N64 STILL and dont think anything ever will replace my SNES... As for the X-Box, im going to wait a year or so to buy one, mainly because of the first rule of buying microsoft: 'Never buy version 1.0'. And its about time Nintendo whent to CD based games... cartreges died A LOOOONG time ago... though I've heard that Nintendo isnt going to take part in the whole 'Online Gaming' aspect, as they feel they dont need to, because Nintendo feels games are meant to be enjoyed by family and friends or somethign stupid like that.... thats what ive heard at anyrate, so dont take anything as gospal quite yet, im sure GC will be a great system.

XBox is made by Microcrap. It'll suck! All the games will be like "The Misadventures of Bill Gates!" and "Find the bugs in our products!(For children ages 10 months to 1)" and stuff. I say GAME CUBE! Nintendo always is the best! DO THE MARIO! PIZZA PIE! MAMMA MIA!

ENDO!

You can also download the games you want so you don't need to buy them either.

Of coarse that would be breaking copy right laws and none of us would do that!

The only reason X-Box is gonna be in the "wars" is cause of all the money behind the system. IMO I dont think X-box will do as good as cube and ps2. I believe Nintendo will reign supreme when its all said and done.

ummmm okay. Whats so great about the X-Box? Everyone wants to buy a console that now has the capablity of crashing? It crashed when they were showcasing it, come on that has to give you some sign........... I haven't really been researching it or anything but I ran into an article that talked about it.
