The voice of the people
We got this email from one gamer who had to get a few things off his chest. Take a look below at what he has to say.
Most gaming fans think that the X Box will reduce the gaming world to ruins, but if it does anything it will help the industry. People that are against the X Box are against gaming future. This includes Sony and their fans,Nintendo and their fans, CNN, most magazines, and as a whole most media. First of all these idiots complain about the X Box being a computer. I don’t care if it is a computer or not (which it is not). You can barely find a DVD player for $299 let alone a computer, so why are gamers complaining. The truth is most gamers are fixated in their own worlds and are not ready for the future. Jealousy and regret are another reason. I don’t see many of my friends jumping with joy over the games and system that they bought-the PS2. Then Nintendo boasts over their cheap system and their games. If you look at X Box’s price compared with the other consoles, X Box is clearly the better deal. X Box is the only system to feature:quality DVD,a hard drive, new innovative games, a decent controller, the best developers, a serious approach to online gaming, etc. ............. I could continue but I have way more to say. Nintendo is getting old and to some people they have been old for a while. Sony is to dependent on third party developers. CNN criticizes the X Box for their launch that may not include third party games. Is this so bad? No this is good-a change for the better and something new. NFL Fever and other games are probably going to be better anyway. I write to other websites and they say I am just as bad as other people for criticizing other consoles. But I know what I am talking about. You may be surprised to know that I am 17 years old. I am educated on all consoles and I am not as bad as other people. When these people run their mouth they are uneducated and blind. When I speak on behalf of the X Box I speak the truth and I see the path openly. Mario ’nuff said. Crash ’nuff said. Even a fool can see that these games on other consoles are getting old and played out. People can praise the Gamecube all they want, but they only launch three days before the X Box. X Box will use a blitzcrieg tactic on marketing and Gamecube will be left behind choking because they no they should have saved their money and not have even released the Gamecube. I don’t see Sony or Nintendo with a half billion dollar marketing budget to spend. People scoff at the Taco Bell partnership but this is a wise marketing scheme to engrave the image of the X Box in every persons head. I will only laugh my head off when the fools that wasted their money on the Cube and the PS2 are drowning in their own tears because X Box will explode and create the ultimate gaming machine. Sega is huge- A word to Microsoft- please sign Shenmue and Sonic first. I am inspiring to be a journalist related to gaming or something pertaining to that field so give me some feedback and tell me what you think. Maybe this can get around to Microsoft and Bill Gates and they will know that there is at least one fan that knows what is being plotted against the X Box. And a strong command to the X Box fans- voice your opinion, be loud and proud, and don’t let these horrible people that are envious over the X Box ruin something that can and will be great.
How about that boys and girls, wasn’t that wonderful it brings a tear to my eyes every time I read it.
