Kiddo, you really need a (new) proof reader and a lesson in formal writing. I supose that you've heard me say that a alot.

Note: Happy now? Good....

MarioKart is perhaps the best game ever... perhaps.. It's in the top 5 multiplayer games, at the very least.

...and with that, we see that the Xbox has its work cut out for it. Technical superiority aside, it's the games, stupid. Nintendo has yet to be beaten by anybody in the games dept. Hopefully, it will be enough to fight off the 500 lb gorilla.

Have you heard the one about the pot calling the kettle "black"? You misspelled two words, used a capital where one wasn't needed, didn't use a capital where one was needed, and used the word "new" where you meant (I assume) "need".

Mikes article made it online a little to early (before we proof read it). The edited version is now online.

Thanks,

For God's sake, Celchu19, hit the damn Spell Check button two buttons over to the right from the Submit Reply button. It takes the spell checker about two seconds to correct your spelling mistakes and makes your posts easier to read. It is one thing to spell poorly, but when you have the tools readily at hand to fix your errors, it is simply inexcusable. I'm not going to ding you on grammatical errors, but do us all a favor and use the spell checker. It is free!

doesn't mean we're not going to give you grief about it though. Image is important, "sloppness" promotes a poor image of you.

For some odd reason I'm an old school web geek, and as a general rule I dislike the perifferation of web-bassed services like discusstion boards and free email acounts. They have a tendenicy to change people's attidue towards, and nt always in a good way.
Attitude towards what? Coherently finishing a thought?
Discussion boards are just an evolution of usenet, ya know.

Problem is that it doesn't have Mario Kart - the best game ever (nobody agrees with me on that one!)
