I'm especially looking forward to the release of: SLY COOPER THEIVUS RACOONUS! Anyone heard of this game? I've been reading up all about it! This game looks tighter than tight!  Visually impressing,and can rival with Crash and Sonic! Plus Sly's got an awesome design!
Its a very fun game. A friend got the demo that Sony was giving away at E3. It was only the frist few leves, but I felt it was much better than...

..the other demo. Great backgrounds and animation, voice acting, control...I liked it, but I hope they improve some parts of it.
For instance, colision detection is off when an object is far away from you (and it happens often, since those leves are huge. Imagine using a gun to attack an helicopter. Bullets never touch it unless you are closer to it) and the grappling hook only works in special objects. Still, it was good, but not better than Sly IMHO.
To me, this year in plataform games to watch are Mario Sunshine (duh!), Sly, Ratchet and Haven.

I can't wait to try the Xbox online. Looks amazing on the infomercial ;)

Eric, no doubt that Sony has this console war won, but all three systems have it's great points,and bad points as well.
i'll be looking foward to that capcom mech game on X-box(yeah,the one w/ the 8lbs or over full flight command stick/center),Robotech,Dino Stalker,Soul Calibur 2,among others.

Steel Batallion and Panzer Dragoon are about the only things enticing me to get an Xbox. But DAMN those things are really high on my list of things to get. Once you've held the Steel Batallion controller, it's hard to go back to any other way of mech game control...
Sly Cooper? Bleh. Visually drab, IMHO, boring designs, and a really, REALLY poorly implemented interactive music system. The music changes WAY too often...
Dead to Rights didn't seem that great, at least the demo I played. The control was pretty good, but the design seemed a bit...eh. It could be pretty good, but I find it hard to compare Dead to Rights to Max Payne...no contest, there. Don't even get me started with the dance scene. Man, I hate stuff like that...

And don't forget Tekki/Steel Batallion, with it's controller of awesomness. That alone may sell the X-box to me, since any mecha controller that has an eject button has to rock by default...
The Temptation of Wheat is upon us!

You've played the Sly Cooper game already?

Although I would love to play Steel Battalion, I don't know how many people are going to cough up the money for an expensive peripheral that's only used for one game. It is any good without the controller gimmick?
I'm interested in Shin Megami Tensei 9 for the XBox, but the chances of it coming over are absolutely nil. First off, I don't even think the star power of the SMT series in Japan is going save the XBox over there and even if it was successful, it seems Microsoft is only interested in promoting PC styled RPGs in the states. I hate PC RPGs with a passion. I hope Atlus takes a break from translating stupid Robopon games and brings the PS2 SMT game to North America eventually. At least someone finally picked up the rights to MakenX (although they changed the name to Magic Sword... Ugh.)
I heard Dead to Rights wasn't that great. Apparently the action/shooting sections are good, but the majority of the game is spent on stupid mini games and beat-em-up Final
Fight styled levels. I wish companies would stop trying to take Final Fight to the 3D realm. The beat-em-up is an antiquated genre that just needs to die out.

THIS FALL?!?
I still have to get games from last fall! I don't have ANY PS2 games. I just have the PS2 itself and a controller. I don't even have a memory card. You wanna know why? The Dreamcast, that's why. I just can't let this machine go and move on to another console. There's still LOTS of things I wanna get for it.
As for this fall on PS2, well, I don't think it'll beat last fall's batch of big name games, but it'll be good. Especially Shinobi, Devil May Cry 2, & Contra. Also, WWE Smackdown: Shut Your Mouth (wrestling fans know!), and the new Tomb Raider is interesting me now. KOF2K1, well that's what the Dreamcast is for.
But I still have to get Metal Gear Solid 2 (I'll get Substance in the Spring), Devil May Cry, Final Fantasy X (which I'm playing by the way, I'm pretty far too), Grand Theft Auto 3, Dynasty Warriors 3, Onimusha, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 (I'll probably just get THPS4.)
The only games that I'm interested on the XBox is the new Ninja Gaiden and Shenmue II. I hope the fighting on that game isn't like DOA tho. I really don't care much for DOAX, sorry. The Fanservice sales pitch isn't working for me. First of all I have to have an XBox.
I think the best is gonna go to the GameCube tho'. I mean Mario, Metroid, StarFox, and later Zelda. Not to mention other great games like Resident Evil 0, and others that I can't think of off the top of my head, but they're there.
The Sega Sports games help ALL the systems too.
