I'm not saying that the GC or the X-Box is bad (except for the fact that Bill Gates is trying to take over the world and now the video game industry *ahem*) but, it seems that Nintendo always had a sort of a kiddish genre going on. What I mean by that, is the games are always so cartoony or more directed towards the younger audience. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think the only game I can think of that's really adult orientated would be the soon-to-be-released Resident Evil game for the GC. As for the X-Box....the only cool game I heard that was on there would be Halo. EGM magazine said that game is better than MGS2!!! Can you believe it?! So, that means that game really is good. But, the PS2 really does have a larger variety of games, that's for the older and younger audience. The X-Box has Halo and some other games, but it seems that they are releasing games that are already out on the PS2. The GC, at least, has original stuff, like Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, etc. so I can't really criticize them as much. But, in the end, I (kinda) respect all the consoles for what they are, since they are competing to be the best, so some games are pretty original.
