I think it will be a mixture of both because IGN stated in a report that
"they" could be - kill 2 normal sims in the Perfect setting, kill a cheeta
sim a with head shot, kill 3 sims who have the far site weapon.
It also states that the sims have to be unlocked in the challenges? Do all
have to be unlocked or are some (Normal sims) ready to go out of the box?

MGS2 does seem to be shaping up very well, but as I hear, it's about the only 
thing that kept interest in PSX2.  They say that DC, with Shenmue and 
internet demos, was the owner of the show.  Plus, having read about Sony's 
conference, they say that their main goal was not focused on games.  I know 
their intension in that statement, but it doesn't make them sound too good as 
a game publisher.  Also, IGNXBox says that many PS2 developers are 
considering switching to XBox because of PS2's developement problems.  I'm 
confident that they'll sell out like h^ll, but this year's E3, it seems, 
didn't exactly boast well for them.

Its by Marigul.  A very neat demo.   Not the best graphics but the visuals are
very polished.

I think what people forget is that like Nintendo Sony has millions of
hardcore fans who will buy PS2 b/c of its name alone. Also, many have
heard of the sheer power of the system and although the games don't
reflect that there are too many loyally blind Sony fans. Sony will do
fine.

No, SEGA must wrestle control away from Sony, SEGA must conquer all. Yeah, 
that's it. Or at least SEGA can sit second place to Nintendo.

Good point...thinki back to the N64 launchhere inthe USA.  What was it?  2
games!  Any other system would have died with a pathetic launch like
that...but the Nintendo name (along with it's Mario mascot) were enough to
move hordes of systems and kep it alive until more games came out.  The same
thing will happen with the PS2 (and it will launch more than 2 games
anyway)...it will sell a couple million right away.  Even if all the games
don't look graphically spectactular right away, they will after a generation
or 2.  If any of you think the PS2 will fail....to put it simply, you're
fools.

Subject: [N64] PD delay?

According to Rarenet, there is a rumor that Perfect Dark will be delayed one 
week because of lack of carts.  They specify that this is a rumor and must 
not be taken completely seriously.  Thoughts?

OK, I spoke too soon.  I just went to Rarenet again and they say the rumor 
was found to be false.  Glad they cleared that up so soon.  Sorry, guys.

 Good point...thinki back to the N64 launchhere inthe USA.  What was it?  2
 games!  Any other system would have died with a pathetic launch like
 that...but the Nintendo name (along with it's Mario mascot) were enough to
 move hordes of systems and kep it alive until more games came out.  The same
 thing will happen with the PS2 (and it will launch more than 2 games
 anyway)...it will sell a couple million right away.  Even if all the games
 don't look graphically spectactular right away, they will after a generation
 or 2.  If any of you think the PS2 will fail....to put it simply, you're
 fools.

Good, I hope so, PD is coming too soon for my tastes. What's the big deal, I 
bet Best Buy will get it a week before any other store does and the closest 
best buy is 200 miles away. I hate Best Buy.

T&L? What the hell is that supposed to mean? I know it's got the T&A with 
DOA2, but what's T&L? The messed up memory cards was because of the DVD 
driver being on them, the DVD Driver will be built into the system for the 
American release. I don't see how two controller ports will be a serious 
problem. A minor problem of having to shell out for a multi-tap, but no 
something to cause its downfall. The only think that could really hurt the 
PSX2 is if development doesn't get any easier.

Another fact that will hurt Sony is that they cant make good quality 1st 
party games like Nintendo that will hurt their sucsess. They rely on too much 
3rd party support.

Hasn't hurt them yet. If what you say will come to pass then why isn't it 
hurting them now?

Nintendo made pretty many mistakes with N64, but it didn't fail (here, at 
least).  I'm sure Sony will do well.

Good point.  That seems to be what every developer says about it when they 
speak of its problems.  And since PSX was easier to develop for than N64, are 
we to expect a turnaround in this next generation?

I don't think that Dave agrees with that statement, but I respect Nintendo 
and Sega more since they make their own games.  Third party support is 
important though.  Look what happened to Saturn once Square went to Sony.  
And I must say that I was kind of upset when I learned that Mega Man was now 
on PSX.  As long as Nintendo backs their systems, I'm fine with it, but 
hopefully they can get the third parties back.  Since Dolphin uses the same 
medium and is supposedly easier developement-wise, they should be back on the 
Big N's side.
