Not with Fox...

Also, I've died three times... all due to just walking off the edge...

Once was that stupid water, twice was the stupid metal suit... I hate that item so...

Try beating those modes on very easy. Its funny, after a few levels bombs and boxes and stuff fall with the CLEAR intent of taking you out. Its pretty annoying.

...No wait. Me thinking of the no damage thing.

Wait, "no" to the design or "no" to it being real?

No to it being real. Looks like a freaking portable CD player.

That's fake. What would they call it, Game Cylinder?

Anyway, sorry for bringing this argument up, but I did a Gamespot search to compare GC to PS2.

GC's specs:

Processor: 1 x IBM PowerPC "Gekko" 485MHz
Graphics Processor: ATI Flipper

PS2's specs:

Processor: 2 x Toshiba & Sony Emotion Engine 294.9MHz
Graphics Processor: Graphics Synthesizer

GC is more powerful.

Search for e-rated games.

PS2: 199 Matches
GC: 199 Matches

Both have just as many "younger audience" aimed games.

Checking the "For Kids" box.

PS2: 111 Matches
GC: 91 Matches

Looks like the argument that GC has more kiddy games than PS2 doesn't work. The highest scoring "For kids" game on PS2 is Katamari Damacy at 8.7, which is pretty good, don't get me wrong. The others included are Jak and Daxter and Rayman 2, at 9.1 and 8.8 respectively. Now consider that these were released back in 2001 and it shows that PS2 hasn't had any worthwhilw E-rated games in a long time.

The highest ranking GC game "for kids" is Zelda Wind Waker at 9.3, with paper Mario 2 just below at 9.2, and while there are those who say they don't like the style of WW, and considering it was made in 2003, two years after the PS2's highest ranking E games I'd say that's not bad. And if you say you hate Paper Mario 2 then I want to know what is wrong with you. Plus, I should add, that there are two other GC E rated games with a score of 9.2 and 9.0 that were released in 2004.

In other words, GC is superior to PS2. PS2 just has a "mainstream" effect going.

EDIT: With T, M, and AO checked.

PS2: 199 Matches
GC: 192 Matches

PS2 may win on this one, but it's still VERY close compared to the "For kids" rating.

People like PS2 more because its made by the same people that make their televisions and VCRs. They don't like Nintendo because it existed back in the day when all video games were aimed at a younger audience, and they still associate it with that.

Thats my theory. I don't play favorites. I try to like all consoles equaly. Unless one is clearly evil, like X-box.
