As long as Civilization remains the realm of the PC it shall for ever own my soul.
Sorry to tell you this, but Civilization is in fact coming to the consoles. Link.

If this dosnt come out on a system besides the PS3 or Xbox360 i wont be playing it and that is sad, cause I love the series, but im not buying a system for only one game. So far their isnt a signle game on both systems that I want at all.

for FF, the only one I liked was Crystal, the rest just seem like crappy knock offs of Dragon Quest, it came out first in japan is vastly better then it. Also it sells better in japan still :D. I love Dragon Quest one of only two games i got on the PS2,the other Dot Hack.

PC's big downside is the price tag really.

although a PC has millions of emulators so you can play all those old favourites.
it can take a wiiiiiiiiiiii controller so you can get your skull bashed in in fps' if you want
in short
the main problem with pc's is the time it takes to get from
"I fancy a quick bash on Civ"
to
Finally actually having a bash on Civ (after booting, arsing about with windows, looking for the cd, config, etc)

I used to be a Civilisation nut, before i discovered the rather excellent Rise of Nations.

I don't see why those games have to be mutually exclusive? I mean, one is a strategic game the other is tactical, both work with the same age-spanning concept.

Taco, I'm sure both of the customers of that pad lost weight etc.

I'm getting a laptop. With Linux. Screw gaming. Nothing new on that front after Doom.

I didn't realise that Nintendo has done this before. I wondered why they knew exactly what to do. :D

government’s job is to help them to do it. Not to tell people how to
live their lives. But to make their choices possible, to release their
potential, no matter who they are. The way to do that is to take power away from those who hoard it. To challenge vested interests. To break down privilege. To clear out the bottlenecks in our society that block opportunity and block progress.

It's coming out on Wii also, but on a later release date.

About .Hack, I never played any of the games but the .Hack//Bracelet (I think that's the one...) anime was good...

He probably meant the PS2/GCN/XBOX grouping...and he (and all of us still with them) is probably screwed.

Well, you meant Wii, but Ranholn...I don't know.  And what's wrong with the 360 and PS3?  I have a Wii now, and I'm going to get a PS3 sometime in 2007. 

Also, I was playing the original Metal Gear Solid (for the PSOne), and, as I kept dying (on normal difficulty), I thought..."I distinctly remember this as being easier when I was eight."  Anyone else gone back to a game they hadn't played in a while and found it considerably more difficult?

ah, your not active in RP. Im PSRDirector, or PSR.

My accounts are Ranholn, NFIC, and Alex. This is just an account i made for a corporation i RP as to keep it apart form my normal rp.

And to answer your question, here is what is wrong with PS3 and 360. They are Overpriced and no games on it that are worth the purchase value of it.
