did you play sonic heroes? big problems there...

i prefer the DS, only played a friends PSP, it seems good, but if nintendo used their tiny little brains and  MADE  a game, instead of all these ports (i am lookin forward to FF3 however) they could stand a real chane against PSP, and yes i do know about the castlevania(also looking forward to it) in the making.

Rayman!!! His severed limbs could teach us all about underrated games.

[Omegadestroyer7]

you forgot to emphasize "UNDERRATED"

a good platformer, but still, wtf with his arms/legs

[Osmose]

He has no arms and legs. The magic of cheese holds them afloat.

Who knows, perhaps Gizmondo could be the representative of Microsoft in the handheld game. They ARE making games for it, according to that article.

[Omegadestroyer7]

microsoft?

people say they are the best because of halo... one series, i can imagine millions would buy this N-Gage 2 because halo is on it *pukes*

[Osmose]

No... I like the Xbox because it has cool games on it. I also like the PS2 (but don't have it) because it has good games.

What I meant was that just the fact Microsoft is there will be a statement to other gaming companies about their interest in it.

So, basically, you're basing your opinion over one fricking game? Like, how convincing.

[ZeroKirbyX]

Sonic Heroes wasn't that bad really. The only bad Sonic game(in my opinion) is sonic 3D Blast.

Arm + leg joints are difficult to animate, I guess. Maybe they wanted to cut a few corners.

Gizmondo is a late comer to these supah-handhelds, so it might fail miserably. Or it might not. What do I know?

not my opinion of sonic in general... just that game, to me is second to 3d blast for fun. after i finished it, i restarted SA2B it also has way better multiplayer.

I miss my SA2 for Dreamcast....

Correction. I miss my dreamcast.
