Yeah it was. RE4 pretty sweet when it came out as an exclusive nintendo game too. I also enjoyed Tales of Symphonia. The point was in comparison to other system the GC just didnt have enough exclusive games to make it really special. I hope to see that in the wii though.

Firmware 3.00 out end of this month? Won't be upgrading, that for sure (unless I had the modchip) but I'll be seeing what new feautes (and more security patches) it will have - along with the PS1 emulator. Let's all hope it will be cracked real quick and then have it running on Device Hook. If it got hacked some more then mabye we'd have 3.00 SE.

yep... agreed. Tales of syphonia was a great game also. Hope the wii pumps out (no pun) more quality games than GC managed.

I think the 3.0 software is mainly supplementary stuff for ps3 owners. the ps1 emulator may be kinda nice, but i have a baaaad feeling about how sony is gonna handle it. i wouldnt be surprised if they snuck in a feature that games downloaded on ps3 "expired" if you didnt reconnect it to the same ps3 periodically.

but then again, thats prolly just my sony paranoia...

meh im not gonna update wen it comes out cause i wanna wait and c some kool hombrew for the 2.80

Im with the majority and hoping for 3.00 to be Devhooked

Dont think I'll ever upgrade my genuine 1.5

On a different tack... I still play my Gamecube and think its a cracking little system (I only need 30 good games because thats all I'll ever have time for!

)

Still not updating!

If I did want to update (maybe out of insanity), a feature I want on it is to be able to play back DRM protected media. Also I want to be able to play back MP4 audio back at lower bitrates because a track at 45K/s sounds as good as an MP3 at 128K/s It is far smaller in file size than MP3, even the WMA format is beaten when it comes to file size and quality.

Another ace would be more for other graphic formats added to the photo viewer (like PCX, TGA, etc...).
