It was more powerful than the PS2 and on par with the Xbox. I understand your point about the disc thing, but that sucker had some juice behind it.

Coming out with a legit console would go a long to gaining third party support but that's just like my limited opinion, man.
Even if the new Nintendo console was more powerful than the PS4 and Xbox One they would still be playing catch up and likely finish third in sales.
Eh, it was semi legit. It was still a step down from the playstation 2 and xbox. Those damn miniDVDs that could only hold 1.5 GB of data compared to what 5 GB or so for the DVD optical disc the playstion 2 or xbox used was a huge issue with third party developers. I remember reading how it turned off developers.
Yeah it was. Not arguing that. Still limited though. Hardware wise with the cpu, graphics, and RAM, it's great but that's why I commented on the storage capacity. It's a huge constraint and especially back at that time when compression technology was not what is now.Monkey_Driven wrote:It was more powerful than the PS2 and on par with the Xbox.jwfocker wrote:Monkey_Driven wrote:The Gamecube was a legitimate console and third parties did not support it.

This is what I was afraid of...I've never played a COD game, but I have a sneaking suspicion I was ripped off on spending $30 on Fallout. It's fun in a let's-get-lost-and-explore-this-massive-world sort of way, but it's not FUN, you know?LoathedVermin72 wrote:It's not Fallout.tragabigzanda wrote:Say more.LoathedVermin72 wrote:only one of those games is worth the pricetragabigzanda wrote:Fallout 4 is $30 at Best Buy today; and COD: Ghosts is only $5.

Haha, of course, I hate all three.zeb wrote:BorderlandsBurtReynolds wrote:The Fallout series is my all time favorite series. Haven't played 4 though.
Bioshock
Fallout
That's my top three.
COD games are fun if your idea of fun is getting spawn camped and screamed at by emotionally stunted man-boys. Fallout IS fun and don't listen to anyone that tells you otherwise. And it's a steal at $30.tragabigzanda wrote:This is what I was afraid of...I've never played a COD game, but I have a sneaking suspicion I was ripped off on spending $30 on Fallout.
