Well, here is the average of 18 reviews on Gamerankings: 71%
NOW...for the great Xbox Dino Crisis 3...
Based on 3 reviews so far: 38%

See, you are being an assclown first of all. I was the only one who even brought up P.N.03 on any regular basis. MONTHS ago, IGN did an import preview of the game as did many other sites. They all said the game had control issues and lacked enough enemies & variety of enemies to keep it engaging. Everybody talked about the poor reviews it was getting overseas. But you just ignore all that don't you?

I will also tell you that Famitsu gave P.N.03 and Dino Crisis 3 both a 32/40 I believe. Unlike you and the Xbox ho crowd, I don't have my head stuck up MS's "FPS" ass. And Xbox is in real trouble now that even Sega is pulling back from supporting the console.

Sure, Halo, PGR and some other non-Japanese games are good. But if it wasn't for Otogi, Panzer Dragoon, JSRF, Gunvalkyrie, Crazy Taxi 3, DOA3 & Volleyball and the other Sega & Tecmo games-I sure as hell wouldn't have even bothered to buy an Xbox! Now that Sega is pretty much pulling the plug on support, I don't have many reasons to play my Xbox anymore. About the only games I even give a rats-ass about coming out on Xbox in the future are PGR2, Halo 2, Oddworld, Ninja Gaiden and DOA Online. The rest of the games are either PC-ports or derivative, soul-less MS crap. Boy-I can Karaoke! WOO-HOO!

Give me a break and quit grasping for straws to bash Gamecube. It must really burn your ass that Gamecube is beating Xbox in total sales and has a much better Christmas lineup than Xbox. Keep on waiting for Halo 2, Doom III, Deus Ex 2, Half-Life 2, Fable, B.C...blah, blah, blah on your list till you choke on your own feces.

And BTW Gadfly you creep...all your babble about Animal Crossing and I finally caved and bought it. Now, my wife has assimilated my GCN controller and refused to give it up! You jerk!

I was really excited for PN03, it looked cool, until I got my hands on the demo of it and well it was really boring... :( After trying out the full version of it today well it didn't change my mind one bit. Too bad I had high hopes for that one. That's ok I am still looking forward to Viewtiful Joe, Capcom has struck gold with that one. I am sure that game will not sell that well, but from what I have played of it, it is one heck of a great game.

Yeah Tappy there is a new Oddworld game coming out for Xbox sometime next year, they did a short news story on it in Game Informer, sounds interesting...but it is still a long ways off. Haven't heard any more info on it yet.

Hey, I tried to warn you the game is pure addiction. I hope you move to the town your wife is in. . . the game is a lot better when two or more people live in the same town.

I wasn't joking when I said when Metroid came out I had to buy a second gamecube so I could play it. The fiance and daughter would not stop playing Animal Crossing. They played it fairly regularly for several months. I actually popped it in for the first time in ages cause it was my birthday and I was curious what everyone was going to get me. Also, it turned out Jellyfish were in season; I knew there were Jellyfish in the game, but it turns out they are only around for a bit in August.

I'm actually surprised they released P.N.03 on GC and not Xbox. I mean it seems like the perfect game for thier fan base. A chick who dances around in fancy enviornments fighting repetitive enemies with a limited amount of actions. It's got great graphics! What else do you need? Sure there no story, varied gameplay, good control or replay value, but the GRAPHICS are so good!

Don't be a jack<b>ass</b>. You obviously know little about the Xbox and it's lineup of games that <b>do</b> have story, varied gameplay, good control, and replay value.

PN:03 looked sweet while it was in development, but the reviews and hands-on previews of the import version that we've been reading for the past 5 months all pointed to the game being a flop. The demo of the game, which has been out a couple months, basically proved to US gamers that PN:03 wasn't "all that."

So um, thanks for the breaking news Game :rolleyes:

Well Shogun I guess we was wrong.Well there is still Starcraft:Ghost.That game looks to be a kick-ass game with a bad-ass chick headlining it.After having to stomach the last Tomb Raider and now P.N.03 let us bow our heads and pray that this game will wash that awful taste out our mouths.And love the Avatar.(I love Megaman)

And btw 78 if you read this,why should I care if the GC is outselling the Xbox? The GC has been the console as of late thats been getting all of the negative press on every videogame website. From forums to actuall news websites.

You cant deny that 78.But go ahead and have selective amnesia.The signs of the end is coming for the GC.Everything thats happening to the GC as we speak also happened to the DC right before its death after two years of life.

I havent seen an official story on Sega walking away from making games for the Xbox.You got a link to go with that story?

Gamerankings? LOL! What a joke they are.And a Japanese gaming mag.Like anyone really gives a fig about those.The bottom line:P.N.03 was a bomb like Ben & Jen's Movie.But the latest from Sega:Otagi on the Xbox was a success.Dont hate 78.Just because the GC barely has a handful of games coming out this year doesnt mean the kiddiecube wont have some bright moments.I cant seem to see what they are at the moment but I'm sure Nintendo will think of something craptacular to come up with.Oh thats right Donkey Kongo is already coming isnt it? LOL!

So the GC has a better Xmas list than the Xbox? LOL! I didnt know the GC had online games? Oh thats right they dont.Hmmmm......So with games like Mafia,Jedi Academy,The Suffering,Black9,Thief III,Baldur's Gate II:DA II,R:Racing Evolution,Rainbow Six 3 and Ninja Gaiden supposed to be coming before this year is out what games on the GC is going to make Xbox owners worry?

Not much.Mario Kart? LOL! F-Zero? Thats if kids dont find it too hard like the game critics did.RS III? Probably will be the best seller of X-mas next to Mario.Other than that keep fooling yourself 78.The Kiddie-Cube will indeed make alot of kids very happy.LOL! But PS2/Xbox owners will truly get the real treats for this X-mas.So by all means continue to play with Animal Droppings.I rather play The Sims instead.

I agree with Game, rankings mean nothing. There's always going to be that 1% of gamers who think a game is blast while the other 99% of us think its a stinking pile of monkey feces. I don't put much stock is reviews either because they are as much opinion as anything. Give me a controller and a couple of hours and I tell you if I like a game, instead of you quoting somebody else's opinion.

I guess what P.N. shows us is that just because a game is on somebody's list of "the best upcoming games E-V-E-R" doesn't mean it will actually be any good. So maybe people should stop arguing about games that haven't even been demoed and stop claiming that their system of choice has the best christmas line-up. Because who knows how many more P.N.03's there are out there.

And Buzz, in case you didn't pick up on it, that was sarcasm. I own an Xbox and played some great games on it.

You know what, no matter how dumb you make yourself sound, I kinda like you anyway, reloaded. I think you really like playing games. So the critics found F-Zero too hard. How did you find it? I personally find it really hard. I haven't given up; but this game is still giving me fits. It is hard, it is fun, and it is a work of art.

Mario Kart likely won't be that hard; but it'll be just hard enough and different to be fun for everyone. That's one of the secrets to knowing how to design a great game. MS needs to take some lessons from its own MS Puzzles Collection for pc.

You'd rather play Sims than Animal Droppings? Sims are fun, both PC and console. But it is an extremely different experience. I mean EXTREME. Play them both and then get back with us. The biggest difference is a time/space thing, and this is much more integral to your psychological interaction with the game than the fact that it is "life sim."

The only reason any of us still bother with you and your angsty bullcrap is that you are clearly a GC fan in denial.

What kind of official story do you need Moody? Ed Fries said Microsoft will no longer be paying for Xbox exclusives. Upcoming Sega Xbox releases: Sonic Heroes...multiplatform. Xbots are such idiots that Microsoft had to literally give Sega games to people. And look at used game stores, tons of copies of the Sega GT/JSRF 2-pack! These games just don't fit in with the "Xbot like big guns un bigger boobies!" motto.

Oh, Gamerankings is a joke but IGN is the bastion of knowledge? You are a bigger tard than I gave you credit for! Gamerankings is simply a listing of all reviews for a game. So let me get this straight: When you read a review on IGN it is the gospel, but when Gamerankings prints the IGN score, it is a joke? You are one morose SOB moody. :rolleyes:

As for the rest of your post and your laundry list of titles...:rolleyes: I guess online is so important when approximately 92% of next gen console owners don't even game online!? Again, you amaze me with your astounding lack of intelligence. BTW...I hear your old lady is from "I-DA-HO." Is that true?

No, a turd is the first Buffy the Vampire Slayer game on X-box. Viewtiful Joe has already been released and is a really good game. I'm thinking this'll finally break me of my DMC obsession.
