not just the one with the worst FPS controller
Hah hah, game has crosshairs now. Enjoy.
The Timesplitter 3 ads say that it's online for Xbox and PS2. I wish it was online for Gamecube just because I'd like to see anything besides Phantasy Star Online support that damn modem, but I know it won't be. Why the hell are there no online third party GC games again?Quote:

I bought my Cube broadband adapter at Wal-Mart. It's the Component Cable that's only offered through their site.Quote:

I think most stores kept them behind the counter because the packaging was really weak. Most places keep all that small stuff that is easy to steal out of the hands and, in effect, out of the eyes of the public. PS2 at least had that sturdy packaging and an aggressive advertising compain to launch the online service.Quote:

They say they don't want o focus on a place Nintendo isn't focusing on. It's a dumb explanation for saying we don't want to waste resources on something Nintendo isn't going to pay them for.
They want to mae it cheaply done and rushed to gain cut costs on the game. If nintendo asked them to put a game online on their servers I'm sure any other company would.
My friends and I love TS2, we play it like Xbox geeks play Halo, only it's on GC. And I bought it for like $14 minus 15% new. Too bad this one isn't online for GC, looks like I'll have to buy the PS2 version for cheap for some online giggles.
