God Halo...the most overrated game in HISTORY! I wish my Xbox still worked though, cause I wanted to get Fable. I'm hoping Nintendo pulls something big out this year. Unlike last years terrible showing. Mario 128 would be huge.

I agree with you that Halo is one of the most overrated games ever, but it is still a good game.... not one of the best ever like everybody says but its still a fun game.... Now Halo 2 is gonna rock.... no doubt there... I even heard a rumor that they were gonna have a playable Demo of Halo 2 at E3 this year!!!

As long as they don't repeat the same sh*t over and over again like the first one, it should be better.

Wow, notice how many of those have 2s or 3s after their name? lol.

Halo 2?

An I the only one not interested in this game?

I mean, I finally got to play the first one last weekend...and I just wasn't impressed. The game does nothing any other first person shooter hasn't already done.

Also, the Spongebob Movie is due out in November, so expect another craptacular Spongebob game.

LoL... yeah... but who really cares about the single player... the multiplayer is where its at... hopefully they have more maps and stuff to play at...
...
I just caught a peek at the New prince of Persia 2 screens.... cool stuff... but i'm wondering how there going to continue the story from the last game... it kinda had a weird ending...

Craptacular? Have you even PLAYED Battle for Bikini Bottom?? That was a great platformer! As far as Halo 2 goes...I was excited for it when it was first announce, but now I couldn't care less.

I'm curious, out of that long list, how many of them will not suck?

The suck to not-suck ratio doesn't seem to be in my favour.

I'd say very VERY few will end up being any good at all.

Actually, no I haven't.

All I've played are the GBA games, the Flying Dutchman game, and one of the PC games.

None of them were exactly the greatest thing out there.

Just to note, I really like Spongebob. It's just that so far it hasn't translated into a videogame quite well yet.

Yes I have... I own it... its own of my favourite platformer games of all time... and Spongebob is my hero... he's got another game coming out made by the same people who made Battle for Bikini Bottom... I can't wait for it to come out... its based on the new "full-length" movie coming out....
..
As for Halo 2... I've already preordered a copy of it...

If you like Spongebob and you've never played it...well get your ass to the video store buddy! It's a great game and it's chok FULL of Spongebob humor and style.

I'm personally looking for good RPGs, and I'm only seeing a certain few. I am excited about Metroid Prime 2 and Resident Evil 4, though.
