    Are they finally going to have a feature where you can rip your own entrance themes? I'd buy an X-Box just for that.

    I'm really looking forward to the Zelda bonus disc (I never played the N64 game) and later on, The Wind Waker. I guess I'll probably get Crystal Chronicle when it comes out, too.

    I also have yet to play Skies of Arcadia. I bought it last week, but I'm still busy with Metroid and Animal Crossing, so it's been sitting on the shelf.

    Oh, and for you people thinking about getting Devil May Cry 2... it got really bad reviews, so you might want to rent it first.

    Well, on my list of "Must get" is C&C Generals, C&C Generals, and...oh yeah, C&C Generals. Zelda: Wind Walker is on preorder with Amazon (with the bonus disk) and then the wait for Final Fantasy X-2 begins.

    As for Devil May Cry 2, I got it at Gamestop used (dude had it, played it nonstop, then sold it back) and I still like it. Although it's easier than the first (especially the boss battles, although there are more of them), it's still a good challenge on hard and Dante Must Die difficulties (the bad guys actually have a Devil Trigger of their own on DMD mode) and Lucia the new character kicks @ss. Still kinda short but the extra area (the Bloody Palace) and the unlockable character (I'm not telling :p , although you'd probably be able to figure it out/find it easily) make it a good buy IMHO.

    I'm normally not a fighter fan, but Guilty Gear X2 is SOOOO much fun! And it's so pretty. The character designs are unique, the game offers many modes of play, and it's just plain fun. It's all about Bridget and Millia Rage, too. =P

    I'm also anxiously awaiting for Xenosaga to come out.

    Anyways, back to lurking.

    Duh. That's part of the reason I like the character so much. But I'm not a dude, dude.

    Totally agree. Is it due out yet? What's the latest rumoured due date? It's delayed for months. I have been waiting it for a long time now.

    Ocarina of Time is one of the most amazing games ever made, you're in for a treat when you get it.

    I started playing Skies of Arcadia last week and have been enjoying it so far.

    I just got my bonus Zelda disc yesterday! Woo-hoo!

    First impressions: It's a little awkward playing OOT with the Gamecube controller. I'm so used to the N64 control system (with Zelda). It'll take time to relearn a few key buttons (ex: using the yellow navigational stick for stuff like getting rid of the ever-annoying Navi). As for the graphics, well, they're a little disappointing. When I heard they were fine-tuning the graphics for the GC edition, I thought there would be a discernible difference in quality. So, far, I can't see any differences (and that's not a good thing). Perhaps there's a big difference if you use a progressive scan TV (which I have) with the Nintendo component cable (which I don't have... yet).

    Watching the Zelda: Wind Waker movie on the bonus disc made me salivate. I can't wait to play the game! 1080: White Storm looked pretty neat, too...

    Bingo. The dang demo required that you have a 2.0ghz PC to play... I have been waiting for this game for like a year already!

    Mine is at my house.I'll get a chance to test it out this afternoon. AS for Sim City4 , I have played it. It was fair but there were several bugs that caused crashes. It is a little different from the older versions in that you can control regions with several cities, but the game play is pretty much the same. There are a few tweaks and differences in teh way things work but if you like the older versions you'll probably like this one. The graphics are pretty nice and the things that go on in your city are quite amusing.
