A half-assed article of this low truthfulness could only have come from those guys at the "Gaming Lack of Intelligence Agency." Fan-boys and shotgun-style rumor mongers who hope that one day they get something right, and they can boast to all their readers how they got it first. In the meantime, they don't care for all the misinformation and lack of intelligence they propagate. The guys over at GameSpot are so enamored of themselves, they can hardly take any time to actually write game news anymore. They're the MTV of game review industry. Similar to MTV's current schedule of asanine progamming sprinkled with some music videos every once in a while, GameSpot spends more time talking about what their reviewers think would be cool than actually reviewing stuff. Get your news from real sources, people, try checking the Sega site maybe. After all, if they were going to can their hardware department, who would they want to tell the public about it? Their own PR department, or someone else's? You do the math.

First off, Doom sucked. Second of all, the key factor in a game's longevity is remembering how much fun it was to play then, not how much to play now. I guarantee if you pick up Super Mario Bros. or Duck Hunt, or Donkey Kong that you'll enjoy playing it for about 15 minutes. (Which, to be fair, is longer than I'd ever play Mortal Kombat Gold.) Third, niether console nor PC has cornered the market on game longevity. Sure, I fondly remember the early FF series, and Mario Kart and the like. But I remember equally fondly the days I passed playing Civ, MOO, and Star Control 2. --------------------------------------------- "Maybe one day soon it'll all come out, how you dream about each other sometimes.

The fools over at the "Gaming Lack of Intelligence." Those are some of the biggest retards on the Net. Just a bunch of fan-boys and rumor-mongers. And the guys at Gamespot are so full of themselves, they can't bother to care about accuracy. Besides, if Sega was going to leave the hardware industry, don't you think they'd post some sort of press release on their site to respond to the volume of inquiries? Seriously people, think before acting. ------------------------------------- "Every jumbled pile of person has a thinking part that wonders what the part that isn't thinking isn't thinking of." -Where Your Eyes Don't Go, by They Might Be Giants
