I read something over there that RE had been selling lower than expected because it was a remake and the Japanese don't like remakes very well. Not sure where I read it as it's been a couple of weeks.

If the economy there rebounds a little, I'm sure they'll sell a bunch when Mario comes out. A new Pokemon game could also boost sales. In the mean time, Nintendo is still very profitable, thanks to Game Boy Advance, which is doing extremely good business.

I loved Half-Life... one of my favorite games of all time. I also liked Halo. Sure, I found some of it repetitive, but I still liked it.

I love H/L, still play it. I love the OZ mod BTW,
I did not like HALO at first, but it is starting to grow on me. The PC is such a superior platform for FPS's, that it is hard to see HALO as the fantastic game that it is (for a console)

I believe that the PC will always be the best place for FPS's, but I think that consoles will always be the best for sports and driving games.

I don't know... I always used to be a fan of PC RPG's, but Halo has changed that somewhat...

I think the X-Box controller works GREAT for Halo, and it's a little hard to go back once you've played Halo on a big-screen HDTV in DD 5.1...
