It's me, TK! Still same old funn-loving Soy! I just looked at the E3 list and figured "Holy Shit, I am going to be missing out on some cool stuff..."
I still play my Gamecube a lot, it has my favorite characters and I am eagerly awaiting Starfox Armada and Metal Gear: The Silicon Cut. But, this kind of goes back to when Microsoft paid a for those levels in the Spider-man game featuring Kraven. Dunno about you, but Kraven was my favorite Spidey Villain. Nice to see the Hunter, if only for a short time.
So, I looked into the pro's and con's. Con: Spewing out another 200 bucks for system (well 150 when my coupon comes back). Kind of bulky, trouble need to get an adapter allowing me to use both systems on my TV without having to remove cables constantly. Has DVD features, but no off/on button.
Pro's better graphics, potentially better speed. The custom soundtrack feauture (wish more games would use it, I currently have Beastie Boys and other stuff loaded in). No worries on size of games. GTAIII coming out next year for it. Halo is actually pretty awesome. Co-op shooters are cool. Only had small chance to try that out in Perfect Dark before... Brute Force is cool also.
To be honest, it has a huge upside. Nintendo arguably has the best first-party licenses, and that is why I bought the system. But games that appear on all systems usually end up a little better on Xbox... unless they come up for Nintendo several months later, in which case the manufacturers get a chance to address player-gripes.
Anyways, take a look at the most impressive games from E3, and take a look at the list of games from E3. See who has the most coming their way.
Not converting, mind you, just becoming more open-minded.
