i look at some reviews in my pc gamer magazine, they usually have the same expectations that i do. if you want a review about a pc game, the best thing would be to download the demo, check your friends opinion, and look around on the internet. if its a console game, i would rent it, borrow it, or check out some reviews online.

as for nintendo, i think the NES and SNES were among the best console systems ever made. the gamecube sucks because the only two game i wanted to play on it were totally ruined (metroid prime and legend of zelda: windwalkers).

Ive never played metroid but from others opinions its one of the best games for any console in the last year. Zelda...ive never really liked, i got it with the console and only played it for about 5 minutes. "adventure" games usually bore me pretty fast.

They don't come as standard so the alterations don't really count as not everyone will have access to them. Burning games adding bigger hard drives..sounds more like a glorified pc. Xbox fanatics go out of their way to point out its not a pc but these "additions" make it even more pc like.
Ummmm....nope. I'm right, you're wrong. freak:

j/k

They definately count to me, but thats just me. I am always looking for those types of things. Anything to stimulate my somewhat deviant mind.
