If you ignore consoles you're missing out on a lot of great games, but there's plenty of great games available on the PC so it's no big deal.

games like lego star wars deserved to be played on consoles with mates and beers. its like a law

For almost any console there are up to 10 must-play games you won't have been able to play on PC, so you're just missing out on some great games. Not all of them to everyone's tastes, but a few universal greats in there.

I've been playing PS2 releases for most of the last two weeks, but it is hard to find time to keep up with stuff for multple systems.

Play.com are no longer taking pre-orders so it's evidently more popular than I was expecting it to be. Hopefully they'll be able to honour my pre-order.

I heard from Game yesterday, they have guaranteed me a Wii from their launch deliveries so I'm happy. As it stands I'm getting it on Friday 8th December With the Wii Sports package and play.com <i>should</i> be sending me a copy of Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess to be delivered on launch day. I'm very VERY excited about a new (and apparently epic by all accounts) Zelda game.

Womble! Rocking!

It's probably a good time to review good GC games too- I'm hoping they're still dirt cheap.

An email from Play.com wrote:We can confirm, despite a European shortage of the Nintendo Wii consoles, that Play.com should be able to supply your pre-ordered Nintendo Wii at launch.

I'm starting to get a little excited

A shortage? Oh crumbs...

I find play's email a little strange considering <a href="http://www.revolutionportal.com/2006/11 ... /">this</a> seems to be the general picture regarding Wii production.

They're claiming 4 Million worldwide between launch and the end of the year. Also all sources (google news) report they're well ahead of schedule... Either way we'll be 'reet I think.

1 month to go!

I read the Zelda first impression article in Edge and now I'm really looking forward to it. Although if you have a look at the FPSs the graphics look like very basic compared to the other nextgen consoles but that not really what the Wii is about.

Also I've got used to the stupid name: Wii

Word on the street is that Wii shortages are appearing.
Mainly on play.com is it an issue, but I'd guess that if you pre-ordered already, you'll be ok, if you're planning to pre-order.. you're likely to get it shortly after the new year.

(Not horses)

Amazon don't seem to have started preorders yet, so I assume they're waiting to see how many they're getting first.

360 went bye bye as was the plan. My Wii is pre-ordered and i cant fucking wait!!!Hacky Zelda FTW
