Gunmetal and Dead to Rights. hey think about it, that is if you guys ever really do think about price (*cough parents *cough). that's $100. that's about 15 hours of hardwork right there. that's the problem with console games. they are so expensive. i mean computer games are much lower in price after like 2-3 months of initial release. i wonder why that is.

Nice post face-off, but I have to be honest; I think the best games for xbox are the launch titles and I hope project ego lives up to the hype or I think my xbox will be cashed in. it has been one disappointment after another thus far and I feel this trend will continue, my only hope is that Seamus Blackly will show innovated stuff before xbox exhausts its life cycle. But none the less I’m very meticulous.

Is Stuntman coming to XBox?

it has been one disappointment after another thus far and I feel this trend will continue,

hey, let's not forget the RobNyack Rule: 90% of ALL games SUCK. Only 10% will be very good to great games.

This rule applies to all platforms....xbox, ps2, GC, pc.

You just have to weed thru the mountains of crap to find the rare gems. You switch over to ps2, and sure you will have more games to choose from, but the 90% rule still applies. You go over to GC, same rule applies.

I suggest you ride it out with the console that has the most hope of delivering that rare gem.....xbox. Plus, that rare geme on xbox is likely to be better graphics, better sound, better game.


plus, don't forget xbox live......no other console plan can even compare.

Yeah, Stuntman sucks on PS2. I still can't believe Gamespot gave it such a good rating too.

Your formula seems to be very accurate, but none the less I was being a bit harsh towards my xbox, I would never cash it in, I know the potential of my green power plant.

David Beckham Soccer, Buffy, Barbarian, Prisoner of War, NFL fever 2003, Blitz, Dead to Rights, Commandos 2 and turok are all worth at least a rent in my opinion. I tihnk everyone will be dissapointed with Dead to Rights though.
