» Billy Hatcher and the Giant Egg Review

Sega's Sonic Team is responsible for some of the greatest games of the 16- and 32-bit generation. Sonic the Hedgehog gave Sega an identity (and maybe "Blast Processing"). NiGHTS into Dreams was a secret only Saturn owners were privy to. Phantasy Star Online made the Dreamcast ahead of its time with online play. And now, after a brief hiatus, Sonic Team is back with an original game on the GameCube. Say good morning to Billy Hatcher!

PC pwnZ0|2$ joo, un1337 f00l.

Seriously though, once you have one system, and things to worry
about other than games to worry about (read: you DO have a life),
it's quite hard to make ends meet to be able to buy other systems
AND games for them.


In closing:

Aerials,In the Sky, When you lose small mind, You free your life.

Peace.

I thought Death Tank was the secret only Saturn owners were privy
too. If you haven't played Death Tank (Zwei), then you just aren't
really a gamer.


Period.

err actually you're mistaken, I own all 3 consoles and play them
quite a bit each, of course the gamecube gets the least play out of
the 3.


And I still say the gameis superfluous.

looking partially at the review i think its better than the
commercials made it out to be...


and its funny the reviwer used the word bizarre as i did

it looks like another unique kingdom hearts without all of the big
characters as its selling point

I don't come to firingsquad for console game reviews.
I come to read your posts.

Although I don't mind reading or looking at the kind of graphics,
which can be produced on other hardware.

I often try to figure out if somebody else is getting it better than
I.

Hey - even if your an PC only kindda guy you should keep an eye on
what's happening on the other side of the fence. If you keep an open
mind about it maybe you'll skip on the next gfx card upgrade and get
a console.


Especially with the prices of consoles theese days - I'm considering
getting a GameCube simply some of thoose game types that never get
to the PC.

I guess you guys are trying to branch out... but this is territory
that is more saturated than lard-cake.

Am I the only one who doesn't come to firingsquad for console game
reviews? Who in fact, everytime he sees a console game reviewed
asks... "okay... so when is it coming on PC?" Only to find
out, to my own dismay, that it's an EXCLUSIVE CONSOLE GAME
REVIEW!!!

Am I the only one who comes here for solace from lack of pure PC
game sites? If not, then I am indeed lonier than I ever thought...

I'm still waiting for it to arrive from Amazon :( I don't normally
buy games online, but I had a coupon to use up and Viewtiful Joe was
the only thing I could think of buying from there.
