    Nintendo also reports a 37% dip in profits for 2002.

      1) What sort of information did they have for City of Heroes? Was it anything new?

      2) You're almost like the anti-Drake when it comes to Nintendo.

      3) WTF is Evil Genius?

        Almost exactly like Dungeon Keeper, only instead of being a Demon with your own dungeon you're a Dr.Evil type villain who has his own secret lair. James Bond-type heros come to try and foil your evil schemes, and your henchman and cunning traps (sharks with frikkin laser beams attached to their heads) will try and stop them.

        It looks like it'll be good fun, although the graphics look very dated.

          Dungeon Keeper was a great concept, and a cool game. I hope this copy has the same pull.

              And so, the hype for HL2 begins.

                The 25-minute video from E3 is very impressive. It's not just uninformed hype.

                I've seen lots of videos from E3 and nothing has even come close to looking as exciting as HL2. It would have been a no-brainer for those awards.

                    Doom3 will be released for XBox too.

                    And Thief 3 (which has been renamed simply "Thief")

                    Deus Ex 2 will be getting an Xbox port too IIRC.

                    DEFINITELY don't sell it now!

                    Sony are in big big trouble.

                      very console oriented

                      best rpg and best adenture are both console.

                      And what is full spectrum warrior - what PC sims might have been picked instead?

                          Not a lot to choose from in the Sim category. Full Spectrum Warrior looks OK, but I don't know much about it.

                          The Movies sounds intriguing, but could easily be another high-concept mess like Black and White.

                            Half Life 2 looks awesome . I wonder if my PC can handle it .

                              If it can't the answer is not to give HL2 a miss, but get a new PC.
