No Gamecube titles, lol.

At least LttP made it on the list....

[AlexMax]

What I find amusing is that DBZ made it to nunmber 2 in spite of being a merely OK game.

And I dont know about you, but I had to get through a clusterfuck to get ahold of a new copy of SOCOM, so I dummo if those sales are exactly universal.

[El Oso Verde]

Seriously? We've got like 8 copies of SOCOM at my work. Odd. We've got some copies of Vice City too, but we're all out of DBZ, figures.

How dumb the average gamer is:

1: Our top game is based on being the villan. Okay, it's fun for a while, but this thing has been #1 way too friggin long.

2: Our #2 game is based on a pathetic Japanese anime that isn't worth watching, much the less playing.

3: Our #3 game is a simulation of a sport. Most of the people who bought it, though, probably play football themselves sometimes...

ummm Vice City is a great game man :shrug: it's very non-linear and allows for far more creative play than any other series out, and that my friend is what makes a game... I'm just sorry you can't see past it's "villain" approach.

[AlexMax]

He can. He just says that it has gotten old in his opinion.

Personally, I still like Vice City. But it's kinda what Super Mario Sunshine was to Mario 64, maybe a few enhancements here and there, but more of the same.

And like SMS, not everyone likes the tropical environment. (I personally prefer GTA3's theme over Vice City's)

[Kairyu]

Exactly. It's a remake of a fairly recent game, that's been out for a while. It wasn't my main complaint in the first place, though, #2 was the thing that really annoyed me. GTA:VC seems like an okay game, really, and that it'd be fun for a fair amount of time... but nowadays, most fans do play it only to give the hookers in the game business, and then shoot the hooker and anything unfortunate enough to be nearby. I'm not saying you or everyone else does, just most people.
