If I had it then I`d go for DOA3.

Whatever. I also said I'd never wear name brand clothing, but I find myself with a pair of Reeboks on my toes.
I use/wear/listen to whatever I like. If I like it, I do it. If I don't... Well, I don't.

...visit the FFX International thread to get a good breakdown of why the other consoles will beat X-Box.

I'm not saying it isn't good now, I'm just saying this is going to be like buying a DreamCast... Great at first, crappy later... Go on, read it, there's real logic behind it.

I'm never too biased to hear a counter argument. Please, I'd like to get your take on things.

Respect the dead!

DC was always great it only turned crappy because no one had faith in it, if it was brought out in more direct competition with the next gen consoles it would have been different.Every developer waited to see the PS2 before doing anything then wasnt as blown away as they thought they would be:/
