It's poo.
It might end up okay, but at the moment they've screwed us all over. Dropping modules, changing our time table whenever they please, teachers not showing up, and erm... the arcade machines cost $2.50
Who makes arcade machines $2.50? ;___;

Infernal: I'm back to Uni on Monday. Bupbow!
At least I've got the UniBar to go to before/during/in place of/after studying.

And I was in EB on Thursday, minding my own business (well not really, but that doesn't matter) when this kid, who thinks I'm looking at the Eye-Toy when I'm actually looking at the PC games (which are in opposite directions - go figure), and says, "Cool, eh?"
Now I could have taken that statement and proceeded to shove it down the poor kid's throat with a baseball bat, but I said, "Nah" and walked away. I didn't want to crush the casual gamer's spirit and... why the hell am I saying this?
*reaches for his time machine*
*realises he still needs to invent time machine*

I refuse to acknowledge the Eye-Toy as a real game, or a real device. Thus, it shouldn't be on any charts, anywhere, and all products should be destroyed and buried at the bottom of the sea with those XBAWXs.
*runs*

And Yu-Gi-Oh? *shakes head*
To quote the rants of Abe Simpson: "I used to be with it, but then they changed what "it" was, now what I'm with isn't it. And whats "it" seems weird and scary to me."

PIAC: Damn Sorny for getting PAL exclusivity! *skakes fist*
But I guess I'd rather them than having Microsoft's grubby mits all over what's shaping up to be a great game.
And FF:CC looks to be another 2004 game. Check out Penny Arcade for Gabe's reaction

. I'm not going to link it because everyone should know about PA, and if you don't, then

Hey, did you guys know that Project Gotham Racing 2 is set in Sydney? And it looks awesome, theres the harbour bridge, the opera house, and heaps of other familiar places. The game looks awesome too, i might get an xbox for it

And... yeah, eye toy is ghey. Its teh kiddy! Speaking of kiddy, i hope Pokemon channel makes it out this year. December 1st is the american date, im hoping we get it before christmas... and im still waiting for Pokemon Box.

Anyway, i want F-Zero GX so much!

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #1554 on:** July 26, 2003, 01:36:45 AM »

I want MGS3 on PS2 more than F-Zero now

It looks fan-bloody-tastic, and it disses GTA Vice City. It's a FRIGGIN WINNER!

But yeah...
*Goes back to listening to GX MP3's*

Too many good GC and PS2 games coming out this year ;_____; X45

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #1555 on:** July 26, 2003, 02:59:11 AM »

well, you should get the GCN games first!
PS2 has enough sales already.
It's time we showed Nintendo of Australia that we do care about the games when they're released!
Get MGS3 in two years time.
It'll still be the same price, so it'll be like you bought it at launch!

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #1556 on:** July 26, 2003, 03:17:36 AM »

hahaha

PIAC · « **Reply #1557 on:** July 26, 2003, 05:54:16 AM »

is anyone going to be around for ignore gamecube freaks tomorrow? i sure hope so! so we can all mass rant all at once at the total lack of gamecube coverage while they praise xbawx live and the gheye toy some more!

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #1558 on:** July 26, 2003, 07:55:27 PM »

Bupbow, I wasn't ;__;
Anybody catch it? Did it feature anything Nintendo releated apart from terrible Disney GBA games?

Shift Key · « **Reply #1559 on:** July 26, 2003, 08:37:02 PM »

Nah, I've given up on Control Freaks. Sleep is better. And football.

EDIT: Infernal, have you come across Megaman: Battle Network 2? I've been playing it for the past few days, and i'm hooked!
Woo! Hooked! Woo!

PIAC · « **Reply #1560 on:** July 26, 2003, 10:09:10 PM »

yet again Control Freaks (aka Cuntrol Reaks, Ignore Gamecube Freaks) sucked balls, they hardly had anything but Xbawx games, they did a suck up piece on Midtown Madness and made it out to be the second coming of jesus on wheels, then they had some crap about AFL (GheyFL) Live 2k4, and more horrible xbawx stuff, then they showed a gamecube game! Pigglets Big Adventure -__- and this was the only PS2 Game the showed aswell if i remember correctly. they showed 2 GBA games, Crash Bandicoot -____- and Splinter Cell, where they said, AND i quote 'if your expecting to play the same game as the bigger cousin on Xbawx then you will be disapointed' (or something similar to that) FFS! how stupid do they think we are! DUHHHHHHHH MY GBA DOES 3D GRAPHICS DUHHHHHH IM GOING TO GO PLAY SUNIC MEGA ERECTION NOW *eats shoes*

i hate this show -_-

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #1561 on:** July 26, 2003, 10:45:57 PM »

Bah, stupid show. Did Nintendo friggin' give up on sponsering the show after the first episode of this season or something? First episode was 90% Nintendo, and the advert breaks were packed with Nintendo adverts..

OH NO, WE GAVE THEM MONEY TO SHOW SOME OF OUR GAMES, WE COULD OF SPENT THAT ON A NEW POOL TABLE FOR THE OFFICE. QUICKLY, LETS JUST LET MICROSOFT THROW MONEY AT CONTROL FREAKS! ALL THIS SPENDING MONEY HAS MADE ME TIRED! NEED A NAP!

Shifty: I've got MMBN 2 sitting in my mess of a hard drive. Been left untouched for like, months

I really enjoyed what I played of the first though. I imagine number 2 is much of the same?

It was a nice breath of fresh air for MegaMan.
Oh yeah! That GameCube Mega Man game is out here! Saw it today. The cover art is cool. Me wantee to hire it!

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #1562 on:** July 26, 2003, 10:49:43 PM »

Nice, I click on edit and get a page of "%4285!!8576:957++_736871{}[]82+=_"

Erm, anyway, has anybody here played that Metal Gear Solid game on Game Boy Colour? Is it good?
I saw it at Cash Convertors in fancy condition for $10, and I spose I need to experience a GBC game on my stinky original GBA once in my life

I'd go get the ROM to give it a test run, but yeah, GBC ROMS are hard to find now. Outstanding.

PIAC · « **Reply #1563 on:** July 26, 2003, 11:19:02 PM »

i saw it brand new at Myer for $9.90 and asked if it was worth while getting, on this forum no less, and i got a big stinky NOPE! save your money

Infernal Monkey · « **Reply #1564 on:** July 26, 2003, 11:27:03 PM »

*Saves money towards pies and chips*

Mario · « **Reply #1565 on:** July 26, 2003, 11:32:56 PM »

I heard MGS on gameboy was pretty good. IGN gave it 9.0 i think. It got good reviews. Meh.

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #1566 on:** July 27, 2003, 03:19:34 AM »

I actually saw Control Freaks today!!
I want Maya! I want Maya! I want Maya!

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #1567 on:** July 27, 2003, 03:06:09 PM »

Hey, does anybody know if Princess Mononoke is available to rent at video stores?

nitsu niflheim · « **Reply #1568 on:** July 27, 2003, 03:12:15 PM »

hmmm, not down there sorry. I was going to buy it after seeing it on cable, but it was like 26.00 for the DVD and I didn't feel like paying that much at the time. Maybe I'll ask for it for my birthday, along with Spirited Away.

Buying a copy not an option for you Termin8?

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #1569 on:** July 27, 2003, 03:19:27 PM »

i've never seen it here.
that's the thing.
just wondering if anyone in my area (well, that would be Infernal - to an extent, Mario and Joey) had it, or knew where i could find it.
Have you seen it?

nitsu niflheim · « **Reply #1570 on:** July 27, 2003, 03:41:28 PM »

Have you seen it?

Is that directed at me, or at Infernal, Mario and Joey? Well I saw it on Cinemax several months ago and watched it everytime it came on after that for about a week then they stopped showing it. So in other words I really liked it.

Termin8Anakin · « **Reply #1571 on:** July 27, 2003, 06:09:32 PM »

yeah, that was for you, nit, but INfernal, Mario, Joey, and everybody else can answer it too

Shift Key · « **Reply #1572 on:** July 27, 2003, 07:48:56 PM »

Infernal: Yeah, it is a different change to the old-school Megaman games. I showed it to my little brother and he didn't care.
Stupid kids, wouldn't know a good game if it bit them in the... *mutters*
I didn't play number 1 actually.
And GC Megaman? Hmm.
*checks wallet*
Well, not at the moment

PIAC: Maybe Control Freaks should be renamed to "Microsoft Bought Us an Island, so we're now a Very Unbiased Games Show!"

Termin8: What's Maya? Is this like that Kelly Starr thing or is this an actual game?

PIAC · « **Reply #1573 on:** July 27, 2003, 11:26:10 PM »

maya is a 3D drawing thingy

speaking of anime, i MUST get Fatal Fury 1 2 and 3 on DVD! I MUST! i love those shows/movie! they are TEH AWSOME, so someone poiint me in the right direction
