Guess what comes out on my Birthday?

The X-Box comes out on my birthday! Microsoft announced it today.

"In honor of Zulithe's birthday, we are proud to announce the nationwide release of the X-Box on none other than November 8th!"

Well actually, it didn't go like that. But similar. It really does come out on my birthday though.

And it will be $299 to buy one. I'm not gonna buy one (at least for a few months after it is released to get a feel for what kind of games it will have) but just wanted to let you all know

I cant remember what new channel it was...(probably CNN or something similar) but it had a nice video of one of GC's games *drools* plus had Shigeru Myiamoto talking about the GC....mentioning the fact that the controller makes a noise when rumbling.....

as for the X-box.....keep in mind that it has a pentium class processor.....which of course has a nice floating point error in it....which gets bigger with each generation SO i wouldn't waste my money on an x-box.....besides....just use your pc instead.....TVs have lower resolution than a pc monitor. And also those screen shots are not what they seem....the x-box in fact may be closer to being in between the ps2 and GC....if those shots are fake.

I would much rather have a Gamecube, because its original in its concept....even though its just a game console

eck.......makes me sick......i would much rather save and reserve a Gamecube....will be far cheaper to purchase than x-box.....plus will have better quality games AND ZELDA, METROID,PERFECT DARK, etc.

X-box has nothing that is as good.......nothing that can come close to those few games i mentioned.......hehe, nothing

OMG I just read that GameCube comes out on November 5th in the USA!!!

X-Box --> Nov 8th

GameCube --> Nov 5th

This is going to be a very tough race between Microsoft and Nintendo! My faith lies in Nintendo but Microsoft has the most marketing muscle (they are doing promotions at Taco Bell and stuff)

I wonder who will win the console wars?

PS2 = Overhyped piece of rubbish with no good games yet.

DC = Good games but dead in the water.

XBox = Promising, but blighted by stupid Japan's lack of support. They'll only succeed in the East if they bring out horse dating sims.

GC = Nice, but I don't know if Nintendo will survive another war, especially with Microsoft. They may well end up going the same way Sega did.

Kaimetsu's favourite: The XBox. Powerful and programmer-friendly. As long as you don't mind the price tag, that is.

Hmm, one of the main reasons I'm getting GameCube is for Super Smash Brothers 2.

I heard that too. Looks like Sega really is scraping the bottom of the barrel, although it'll probably come out alright in the end. It's always had a fairly turbulent time with developing hardware.
