Update: 10^th of August

I visited Bungie.net to see some Halo stuff and what do I see on the main page? A link to a feature about Halo 2!!! And I just had to tell you all about it!!! So click here to see the report! There is screenshots of the game on Bungie's site, the link to them will be on that page with the Halo 2 feature that I gave you the link for. As you can tell from the shot to the right, it looks SWEET!

What will happen in MC's latest outing? Well, we'll have to wait till Christmas 2003 to find out!

Check out Bungie's site for now.

MC's adventures continue in Halo 2!

Both new consoles are here and Xbox is only £199.99

It's time for a long overdue PS2 slagging! It's now looking bad for the PS2! With few good games being released and the competition both much better value people should start to realise that the PS2 is not good! Now, if people can see past the hype around the PS2 and not go for the "brand name" we may see a reversal in the way things are going! PS2 is hideously less powerful than the Xbox but that's not it's only problem, it?s games are terrible in comparison to what?s on both Xbox and Gamecube! Look at the selection of QUALITY on Xbox and Gamecube! Xbox has Halo, Project Gotham, Jet Set Radio Future, Dead Or Alive 3, Amped, Rallisport Challenge. And Gamecube has games, not quite as good as what's on Xbox but they are more fun than what's on PS2. PS2 has Metal Gear Solid 2, Virtua Fighter 4, Crazy Taxi and? er? Final Fantasy X (hideously overrated RPG)? Well since Metal Gear Solid 2: Substance and Virtua Fighter 4.1 are coming to Xbox and Crazy Taxi is on DC and Gamecube (both versions superior to PS2 version, and Xbox is getting Crazy Taxi 3 anyway) we're left with Final Fantasy X which is not enough to warrant a purchase of a PS2.

So, here's a list of the games:

Xbox: Halo, Project Gotham, Jet Set Radio Future, Dead Or Alive 3, Amped, Rallisport Challenge. And still to come are Panzer Dragoon Orta, Shenmue 2, Unreal Championship, Crazy Taxi 3, Halo 2, Fable, Blinx and many more including the top PS2 games Metal Gear Solid 2 and Virtua Fighter 4 with enhancements. Also "Xbox Live" is coming which will be the super fast internet plan for Xbox, expect a lot of games in furture to support it including a sequel to Project Gotham, Halo 2, Unreal Championship as well as many more.

Gamecube: Luigi's Mansion, Sonic Adventure 2: Battle, Super Monkey Ball, Rouge Squadron 2, Crazy Taxi and Super Smash Bro. Melee, and still to come is the, Super Monkey Ball 2, Mario Sunshine and the Resident evil series. These games are the recommended GC games, most are not really for those looking for more grown up games, but good for the kids, some (like the resident evil series) are for the older gamer though.

And then, there's the PS2 with it's "top" games, not including it's games that are coming to other consoles it has Final Fantasy X, GTA3 and? oh, that's it!

As well as having better games, the 2 consoles work out cheaper than the PS2! It's maths time, children!

Xbox: £199.99

Top game: £44.99

Memory card: None needed

Total: £244.98

Gamecube: £129.99

PS2: £199.99

As you can see the Xbox and Gamecube are much better value. These prices are on RRP of official products, shop around and you'll get better prices. At Comet they have a great Xbox deal; Xbox + extra controller + game for only £249.95! Halo deathmatch anyone? And remember those who bought the Xbox for £299.99? Well they got a controller and 2 games (worth £115 total) for FREE! Did PS2 owners get anything after the PS2 price drop? NO! It's a good time to be an Xbox owner, and the future of it looks bright!

Well, that?s all I have time for this month! Keep coming back!
