    I like the fact the called the graphics chip flipper - reference back to the Dolphin code name.

    It takes me back to Sid and Fat Angus, and of course the rock lobster motherboard of Commodore days...

    I think the Genesis would've done well had Sega not released "Moonwalker."

    Someone mentioned the resident evil/biohazard game series. I know I'm personally re-examining my and my kids involvement with even these types of harmless shooters. I've got this nagging conscience telling me we shouldn't be perpetuating aggression or killing of anything as a game.

    Yes, I think evil zombies deserve the right to live too, and we shouldn't be making a game out
    of slaughtering innocent undead.

    Better not let your kids play FLight Simulator now, either.
