The Problem with a boycott is this, No matter people you can get to plan a boycott, you can also count on 3x as many that just don't know or give a fuck, and buy the product anyway. The sheep far outnumber the shepards I'm afraid.
I'll probably get yelled at from the ps2/xbox fan base but screw it, both systems are lacking in any real innovation. I only need so many fps and run-n-gun games. The cube has one of the best and original video game lineups in years, and I hope people can see that.
Well, that was a shitty comment if I ever saw one. I happen to use mozilla at work, and all my clients have it installed and configured thanks to me. They happen to love it, from the simple users who hate pop-ups to the power users. I do notice that no matter what level of expertise though, they tend to blame the browser for something not working, not the page itself, that stigma is the only thing left holding acceptance back.
Well, someone let me know who the other user is so I can keep in touch:)
The reason I hate the xbox personally is because of the fact that is so basic. It's a pc, every other console in history has been a custom system, with at least a touch of elegance to it, Microsoft took the easy way out and built a sub-standard pc. If anyone else had done the same thing, I would have also not been impressed.
Why yes I've played it, and it's "nice" nothing beyond that. the gfx are nothing more than an Nvidia tech demo, go to the nvidia site and download them and you will see what I mean. Unreal 2k3 will dominate over unreal champ anyday, because my PC can be customised way beyond the xbox. Plain and simple. Enjoy Unreal champ. I'm sure it will be a good time, but not as good as Unreal2k3.
The reason M$ numbers are higher for the Xbox is beacause they gave away enough to fill a small state. Don't fool yourself into otherwise. As for halo, yeah it's a nice fps, but nothing else than that. I love how xbox fans, have halo and nothing else to go on. And as for Xbox live, I've been playing unreal on my PC for a good long while.
Secondly, why bash nintendo in the same reply, not that they have any killer apps, (Resident Evil 0, Metroid Prime) And much more on the way, enjoy your box and have a nice day
I know, I know, we all hate Microsoft yadda yadda yadaa. Then why everytime time, there is something related to the xbox we get a submission on it, last time I checked this was not a video game site. Hell Capcom just announced 5 killer apps for the Gamecube, but I don't see that on here. Xbox IMHO is a cheap ass pc, I got one free with my dsl sign up, and I gave it away for a Nextel, something I actually will use. Microsoft is just trying to take another market, one that I hope they do not.
But as always greedy americans, too lazy to change, gee HDTV when??!! never because we can't agree. Little soccer mommies, yakking away on thir phones, driving an SUV 30x times thier size, getting 1mpg on the highway.5 city. Things need to change, but they will be slow because the main populace is a bunch of greedy un-informed sheep.
Because HE IS THE LAW.....
Drokk it...
There are two more movies in the works, by rebellion studio's. Thankfully the brits are handling it this time, the way Judge Dredd should be:)
Yummy, too many drinks out there. I must say that many of them taste worse than the ass of the gamer who is drinking them. Not from experince mind you, just my imagination.
This is why I love the Id games, they give ppl new ideas years after they have come out....
I'd love to see UT given this same treatment or even doom;)
Well, I just hope the minimum requirement's for the pc version are a Celeron with 64megs of ram. So much for this game being light years ahead, because if it's going to look the same on the xbox those are going to have to be the specs.
Just my.02
The Yopy was Dropped by Samsung, but was re-designed by g.mate the comapny that was in cortrol of the unit all along. It's got just about the same specs as most of the pda's coming out now, but with and odd keyboard layout. check out or
Personally I'll be getting the Zaurus shortly, and from what I've seen this is the Linux PDA to get.

Intel is playing a horrible game, look we have a faster chip every 3 months. I work in an Intel house and could care less.
AMD baby, more bang for the buck.
