wow, voicechat on Animal Crossing, I wonder if that means we can talk to each other when we visit other people's towns.
This is my RP Forum, Tales of Symphonia Adventures, or ToSA for short. Please take a look?

Everybody here better get Animal Crossing, go to my town, and talk. to. me.

Halo = Overrated. Call of Duty is good.

It was lonely... you promised you'd write to me, but you never did... the months passed by, and I still thought of you every day, but you never called. I never got any letters from you.

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*

I haven't played Halo 3 or COD4 so I can't comment on which I think is better but remember, more popular doesn't neccessarily mean better. There's been some absolutely horrible games that have sold fairly well and some brialliant stuff that no one bought.

There isn't a PS3 price cut, but they are releasing yet another model. If I remember right it's like 80gig hard drive, no backwards compatibility, for $400.

Oh, FYI: Bungie is an independant studio now meaning there's nothing stopping them for making games for non Microsoft systems. Not saying that they will, but it's possible.

Finally! The Wii is going to have a voice-chat peripheral! Now if only they could make it compatible with online games other that Animal Crossing...

Could happen...but maybe not. Nintendo seems to be trying really hard to keep their "family friendly" games family friendly even when online. I think the main reason Brawl doesn't have voice chat is so that they wouldn't have to worry about all the constantly swearing 12 year olds that you find in nearly every online game with voice chat (or text chat for that matter).

Srsly? I've rarely had any trouble with cursing twelve-year olds in any of the online games I play. *Glances sideways at Quake, Unreal Tournament, Battlefield 2, Diablo II, Neverwinter Nights, Counter Strike, Call of Duty 4, Team Fortress 2, Starcraft, World of Warcraft and Warhawk.*

Well, I can see Starcraft and a few more of those but seriously, you haven't had trouble with swearing kids (or older people who act like kids) in Counter Strike?

It's Nintendo. They'll find a way to make it family friendly. Plus, I don't expect you guys to heavily swear.

I'm pretty sure they'll make it so that you need the friend code. They weren't to worried about the D/P's voice chat, and seriously doubt people would swear in a game with humanized chibi animals.

Actually, I've had a few of those. But I'm still confuse as to why Nintendo would try to make a Teen rated game family friendly.

You know how I'd solve this problem? Make voice chat only available for peeps in your friend list, PROBLEM SOLVED!

No moar 13-years old ruining your ears like a rave!

I believe we've discussed this before, and I was in favour of this idea.
