&lt;br /&gt;
This week we present the Sega World Weekly Message Board. A&lt;br /&gt;
place to speak your mind on anything Sega related, and to&lt;br /&gt;
talk with other readers of SWW. Then remembering all the&lt;br /&gt;
developers and publishers that read our newsletter, perhaps&lt;br /&gt;
it&amp;#039;s a good place to get your thoughts read by the gaming&lt;br /&gt;
companies of the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Check it out today at http://www.segaworldweekly.com/forum/&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For starters, let us know what Dreamcast titles your&lt;br /&gt;
looking forward to on the forum :)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Then as April reaches an end, the E3 approaches. Last year&lt;br /&gt;
Sega ruled the show like no one ever before, and while this&lt;br /&gt;
time around they will have a smaller booth, just imagine&lt;br /&gt;
what we&amp;#039;ll see... Sega games on the X-Box, the Gamecube,&lt;br /&gt;
the Playstation 2 and Gameboy Advance. Even old Saturn&lt;br /&gt;
titles coming back to life through the PSOne.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Panzer Dragoon has already been announced, but it just&lt;br /&gt;
boggles the mind thinking what the other 50-something&lt;br /&gt;
titles Sega might have, due out on other platforms by March&lt;br /&gt;
of next year! Then don&amp;#039;t forget all the Dreamcast titles,&lt;br /&gt;
as Sega goes out with a bang on their last console.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our Cover Feature this week takes a look at the Nintendo&lt;br /&gt;
Gamecube, after previewing the X-Box a few weeks back. We&lt;br /&gt;
take a look at the highs, the lows, the specs, and the&lt;br /&gt;
release dates. Then speaking of Nintendo, this weeks topic&lt;br /&gt;
for the letters page and forum topic is...&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Gamecube Previewed&lt;br /&gt;
      -- Written by Graham Parker&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
First revealed to the public just over eight months ago&lt;br /&gt;
now, the Gamecube is the next in line of Nintendo consoles,&lt;br /&gt;
and within the next six months you could be playing 128-bit&lt;br /&gt;
Mario.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The machine was originally due out in July, but as is&lt;br /&gt;
traditional for Nintendo, the console was recently delayed.&lt;br /&gt;
Still this should be the only delay, and while Europeans&lt;br /&gt;
still don&amp;#039;t have a release date, chances are the upcoming&lt;br /&gt;
E3 show will bring one, along with pricing information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for Sega developing on the GameCube, both Sonic Team&lt;br /&gt;
And Amusement vision have been confirmed to be working on&lt;br /&gt;
New games for the machine. It&amp;#039;s possible we&amp;#039;ll see over&lt;br /&gt;
20 titles come from Sega within the next year.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Console: Nintendo Gamecube&lt;br /&gt;
Release: September 14 in Japan&lt;br /&gt;
         November in America&lt;br /&gt;
         Un-announced in Europe&lt;br /&gt;
  Price: Rumored to be around $200&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-- Features:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The entire console design is something of a new feature,&lt;br /&gt;
starting with the handle on the back. This allows you to&lt;br /&gt;
literally just pick up your console and go around to a&lt;br /&gt;
friends. Of course this could also make your console look a&lt;br /&gt;
little childish, but then again a few years ago we would&lt;br /&gt;
have probably said multi-colored consoles were childish.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Speaking of which, the Gamecube will be available in a&lt;br /&gt;
variety of colors, including Purple, Red, Gold, Silver, and&lt;br /&gt;
yes, Black. The cube it&amp;#039;s self is 150mm wide (5.9 inches),&lt;br /&gt;
by 110mm high (4.13 inches), and 161mm deep (6.3 inches).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Which in comparison to the Dreamcast, is actually smaller&lt;br /&gt;
by a reasonable amount, but naturally taller. The machine&lt;br /&gt;
is about twice as high as your Dreamcast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Inside the top of the machine goes your game disc, but it&amp;#039;s&lt;br /&gt;
no ordinary CD, GD-ROM, or even DVD. Nintendo have created&lt;br /&gt;
their own mini 8cm DVD based disc, which makes it much&lt;br /&gt;
smaller than your usual CD. As Sega did with their GD-ROM,&lt;br /&gt;
this is in the hope of avoiding piracy, but Nintendo have&lt;br /&gt;
gone a step further here and quite possibly finished piracy&lt;br /&gt;
for good. Being an unusual sized disc, no one has a writer&lt;br /&gt;
that can produce discs that will fit into a Gamecube.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
These discs hold 1.5GB of data each, which suddenly gives&lt;br /&gt;
developers as Nintendo an amazing amount of freedom&lt;br /&gt;
compared to the cartridges. While the Gamecube won&amp;#039;t be&lt;br /&gt;
able to play DVD movies, hopefully this anti-piracy disc&lt;br /&gt;
will help to attract more 3rd parties, something the N64&lt;br /&gt;
did lack.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As for saving your games, unfortunately there&amp;#039;s nothing&lt;br /&gt;
Like the VMU for the Gamecube, or a hard drive like the&lt;br /&gt;
X-Box. Instead Nintendo have gone with memory cards,&lt;br /&gt;
storing 1/2mb of information each (that&amp;#039;s about twice the&lt;br /&gt;
VMU&amp;#039;s space). To compare the X-box and Playstation 2&lt;br /&gt;
consoles have 8mb memory cards. Thankfully these Gamecube&lt;br /&gt;
cards will support add-on carts, taking the memory all the&lt;br /&gt;
way up to 64mb, and as for the VMU, perhaps the Gameboy&lt;br /&gt;
Advance can be used as a sort of mini-game device.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With Multi-player gaming being so important these days and&lt;br /&gt;
after rumors of Phantasy Star Online coming to the&lt;br /&gt;
Gamecube, what sort of a connection the console has to the&lt;br /&gt;
world wide web has become very important. Out of the box&lt;br /&gt;
the Gamecube has no connection, but a 56k modem will be&lt;br /&gt;
sold separately, and later a broadband device will be&lt;br /&gt;
released.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally a feature worth noting is the machines outputs,&lt;br /&gt;
in particular the Digital AV output. This means the machine&lt;br /&gt;
has the power to generate 480p images, allowing you to use&lt;br /&gt;
the Gamecube on your new HDTV. Using progressive scan mode,&lt;br /&gt;
games will run at a true full screen 60 frames per second,&lt;br /&gt;
unlike the interlaced 60 frames on other consoles and TVs.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So overall the Gamecube is a well thought out piece of&lt;br /&gt;
hardware, and in terms of power comes between the&lt;br /&gt;
Playstation 2 and the X-Box.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
-- Main Concern:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The main concern would have to be the niche market many&lt;br /&gt;
gamers associate with Nintendo. In this age, Nintendo should&lt;br /&gt;
step up and go mass market, go for the number one spot, but&lt;br /&gt;
if they will or not remains to be seem. Nintendo is a very&lt;br /&gt;
traditional gaming company, and they aren&amp;#039;t likely to change&lt;br /&gt;
easily.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Toejam &amp;amp; Earl 3 Looking Great!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After almost half a year of no updates, mid-last week we&lt;br /&gt;
spotted the Toejam &amp;amp; Earl Productions website has been&lt;br /&gt;
updated. On April the 25th this year, they added, &amp;quot;The&lt;br /&gt;
game&amp;#039;s looking GREAT!  Can&amp;#039;t wait to show you! (Look for a&lt;br /&gt;
brand new website, coming soon.)&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&amp;#039;s great news for Dreamcast players that have been&lt;br /&gt;
awaiting the third in the series, and the game should be a&lt;br /&gt;
brilliant platformer when it&amp;#039;s released, there&amp;#039;s little&lt;br /&gt;
doubt about that! We&amp;#039;ll keep you updated right here.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
European gamers are getting a break this week, as not only&lt;br /&gt;

budget price of £29.99. From now on all of Sega&amp;#039;s upcoming&lt;br /&gt;
titles are going to retail for the cheaper price,&lt;br /&gt;
including...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Daytona USA 2001 - 11th May - Racing (Offline)&lt;br /&gt;
Confidential Mission - 25th May - Shooting&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Three More Games Canned&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Unfortunately three big games get the axe this week,&lt;br /&gt;
including the biggest and most exciting PC release in&lt;br /&gt;
recent history, Black and White. Agartha and Take The&lt;br /&gt;
Bullet are the other two titles no longer coming to the&lt;br /&gt;
Dreamcast, with just the former being ported to the X-Box.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Finally Sega Europe have stated that the titles Ecco the&lt;br /&gt;
Dolphin 2 and the Real Arcade Pack are certainly not coming&lt;br /&gt;
out for the Dreamcast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Crazy Taxi World Championship&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
As they enter into their twentieth year of record keeping&lt;br /&gt;
for the video game industry, Twin Galaxies has launched a&lt;br /&gt;
World Championship to identify the world&amp;#039;s greatest gamers&lt;br /&gt;
competing on Sega&amp;#039;s popular Crazy Taxi video game.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Conducted on the Dreamcast, PS2 and arcade coin-op&lt;br /&gt;
platforms, the Twin Galaxies Crazy Taxi World Championship&lt;br /&gt;
will identify more than 200 champions competing on more&lt;br /&gt;
than 35 different tracks for both the NTSC and PAL formats,&lt;br /&gt;
with the results going into the next edition of Twin&lt;br /&gt;
Galaxies&amp;#039; Official Video Game &amp;amp; Pinball Book of World&lt;br /&gt;
Records, the electronic gaming industry&amp;#039;s official book of&lt;br /&gt;
records.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For more information on the Crazy Taxi World Championship,&lt;br /&gt;
go to www.twingalaxies.com&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Starting May 3rd and ending July 2nd, 2001, the event will&lt;br /&gt;
require competitors to submit videotapes of their best&lt;br /&gt;
scores achieved under strict game settings. Walter Day,&lt;br /&gt;
Chief Scorekeeper at Twin Galaxies, says: &amp;quot;It is absolutely&lt;br /&gt;
necessary to verify high scores through videotape because&lt;br /&gt;
there are so many difficulty settings, game cheats and other&lt;br /&gt;
variables that can affect the player&amp;#039;s score. We make the&lt;br /&gt;
players play under standardized game settings.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In addition to winning entries in the Book of Records, top&lt;br /&gt;
players will receive ornate custom-made awards certificates&lt;br /&gt;
suitable for display.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Virtua Fighter 4 - No Sumo!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With each new instalment to Sega&amp;#039;s Virtua Fighter series,&lt;br /&gt;
two new characters are added. But for the first time,&lt;br /&gt;
rumors have it that one player will removed, Taka-Arashi.&lt;br /&gt;
The sumo that made his debut in Virtua Fighter 3, and&lt;br /&gt;
again provided a very different and realistic experience&lt;br /&gt;
for fighting fans. Virtua Fighter 4 is currently 55%&lt;br /&gt;
complete, and due out in June.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Namco&amp;#039;s new light gun shooting title, Ninja Assault, may&lt;br /&gt;
be coming to the Dreamcast and Playstation 2 this year.&lt;br /&gt;
Namco have been rumored to be publishing the PS2 version&lt;br /&gt;
of the game at home, while Sega will take on the duties of&lt;br /&gt;
the Dreamcast.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Namco started the Dreamcast&amp;#039;s life off in style, perhaps&lt;br /&gt;
they can finish it in the same fashion.&lt;br /&gt;

What free stuff do you want us to grab? :) Which console&lt;br /&gt;
are you most interested in reading about?&lt;br /&gt;

-- E3 on DVD&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
For the past two years NextGenVideos have produced an E3&lt;br /&gt;
Video, then a VideoCD, and now in 2001 a DVD. Having&lt;br /&gt;
received both previous years videos, we can personally say&lt;br /&gt;
these guys know how to deliver for gamers. Now they have&lt;br /&gt;
the chance to pack two hours of footage onto a DVD, on the&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;100% Unofficial E3 2001 DVD&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Complete with all the game footage, the DVD also has&lt;br /&gt;
interviews with developers, footage from over 30 different&lt;br /&gt;
companies booths, and even Dolby Surround Sound! The disc&lt;br /&gt;
will be released on the second week of June, and can be&lt;br /&gt;
pre-ordered for AUS$24.95 (about US$13) plus shipping&lt;br /&gt;
(AUS$5, US$3). The pre-order forms are here...&lt;br /&gt;

-- Over 750 new games!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to the latest ISDA report, this year&amp;#039;s E3 will be&lt;br /&gt;
hosting more than 750 &amp;quot;never-before-seen&amp;quot; video games and&lt;br /&gt;
related products, according to an exhibitor survey fielded&lt;br /&gt;
by the show&amp;#039;s owner. The ISDA comments that about 400&lt;br /&gt;
companies, including 123 first-time E3Expo exhibitors will&lt;br /&gt;
showcase thousands of games and products at this year&amp;#039;s&lt;br /&gt;
show, which will be held May 17th to 19th at the Los&lt;br /&gt;
Angeles Convention Center. We hope that our readers give us&lt;br /&gt;
a hand deciding which of those 750 games and products we&lt;br /&gt;
should drool over. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

-- What, no Lara Croft??&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Our editor has been drooling over the prospect of getting&lt;br /&gt;
getting to meet &amp;#039;booth babes&amp;#039;, so it is with a sad heart&lt;br /&gt;
that I have to tell him that this year Eidos will not have&lt;br /&gt;
a hot model to promote the Tomb Raider franchise. They&lt;br /&gt;
decided that its best not to promote a new model in order&lt;br /&gt;
to quell any confusion of the upcoming summer flick, Tomb&lt;br /&gt;
Raider: The Movie. Eidos will not be publishing a new Tomb&lt;br /&gt;
Raider title this year, and thus there&amp;#039;s very little&lt;br /&gt;
relevance to acquire a new model for promotional purposes. &lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; L6 Special!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A new feature titled the &amp;quot;L6 Special&amp;quot; was added to the&lt;br /&gt;
website today. This is a continuous special that will&lt;br /&gt;
feature one item at a very low price. Only one item will be&lt;br /&gt;
featured at one time and the item can be featured for a&lt;br /&gt;
short time (one day) or a long time (weeks). This time&lt;br /&gt;
period will not be regular and will not be posted on the&lt;br /&gt;
site. As you can see from the first item on special, the&lt;br /&gt;
prices will be cut drastically (right now, the price is cut&lt;br /&gt;
from $10.95 to $5.45). The first item is for the&lt;br /&gt;
Playstation, a Mini DDR Controller.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; PSO Complaints&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Q) Having &amp;#039;invested&amp;#039; £70 in online call charges for PSO I &lt;br /&gt;
   recently had the misfortune to be playing on a JP server &lt;br /&gt;
   when it crashed resulting in a loss of my lvl 68 &lt;br /&gt;
   character plus associated items. After calling the &lt;br /&gt;
   various Sega helplines, they offered no reassurances &lt;br /&gt;
   that it would not happen again, what is going on? You &lt;br /&gt;
   can not have on line gaming where you can&amp;#039;t backup your &lt;br /&gt;
   data up and run the risk of losing everything, I have &lt;br /&gt;
   decided to take this further with Sega and over the &lt;br /&gt;
   weekend will be sending off letters to Sega demanding an &lt;br /&gt;
   explanation and to any online sources that I can find.&lt;br /&gt;
   Any ideas? - Martin Elder&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A) Yeah, deal with it. PC gamers have already learned that&lt;br /&gt;
   when playing an online game, there will be crashes. &lt;br /&gt;
   Gamers playing Diablo2 and Ultima Online have found that&lt;br /&gt;
   sometimes something breaks and you lose your character.&lt;br /&gt;
   It sucks, some companies such as Blizzard have started&lt;br /&gt;
   to &amp;#039;restore&amp;#039; characters lost to a crash, but it took a&lt;br /&gt;
   lot of complaints before they did. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Q) I have a question about NBA2k1. When I make my own &lt;br /&gt;
   player in the customize section of the game and then &lt;br /&gt;
   import him into a team he doesn&amp;#039;t show up in franchise &lt;br /&gt;
   mode. So how do I create a player that I can play on &lt;br /&gt;
   franchise mode, if that is even possible? Go Mavericks!&lt;br /&gt;
   Have a great day. - Christoffer Heggelund&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A) To be honest I&amp;#039;m not much of a sports games person, and&lt;br /&gt;
   I thought my neighbour owned NBA2k1 so he could answer&lt;br /&gt;
   this question but it turns out he only owns NBA2k...so&lt;br /&gt;
   do any readers know the answer? Go Trail Blazers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; PSO ver.2&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Q) Please get as much info as you can about the updated &lt;br /&gt;
   version of PSO. American fans of the game are rabid to &lt;br /&gt;
   have it, and very worried that it won&amp;#039;t be released.&lt;br /&gt;
   Thanks. - Joe&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   Hi, I&amp;#039;ve seen some pics of PSO Ver. 2 and read a lot &lt;br /&gt;
   about it, but I haven&amp;#039;t seen a U.S. release date. Can &lt;br /&gt;
   you find out when it&amp;#039;s going to be released?&lt;br /&gt;
    - Rick Gautier &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A) Wheel of Release Dates, turn turn turn, tell us the date&lt;br /&gt;
   we wish to learn...&amp;quot;E3 Shall Reveal All...and yes PSOv2&lt;br /&gt;
   is coming to America!&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; More Sporty Sports Questions&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Q) Could you tell me if Sega Sports has started working on &lt;br /&gt;
   NFL2K2? Thanks. - Kerry P.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A) Yes. E3 shall reveal gameplay information.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; The World is White and Blue!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Q) Hey. My PC can&amp;#039;t pull off the graphics needed for Black&lt;br /&gt;
   &amp;amp; White so the Dreamcast is my last hope to be a God. &lt;br /&gt;
   When might B&amp;amp;W be coming out for the DC, and if it does &lt;br /&gt;
   come out for the DC do I need to buy the DC Mouse?&lt;br /&gt;
   Thanks. -Joe&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A) Actually, it looks like it switched publishers. With&lt;br /&gt;
   SEGA picking the game up. I wasn&amp;#039;t able to find a&lt;br /&gt;
   release date, but I&amp;#039;m hoping Sega announces something&lt;br /&gt;
   at E3.&lt;br /&gt;

&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; &amp;quot;Just Buy the Game!&amp;quot; - says the Canadian Girl&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Hey Zondaro, &amp;quot;Just buy the pirated copies&amp;quot;. Come on what &lt;br /&gt;
 kind of advice is that?! Can Humberto play games in jail? &lt;br /&gt;
 Geez! The Sega-know-it-all should be able to find out how &lt;br /&gt;
 Sega DC games can be imported into Mexico...legally.&lt;br /&gt;
 - Angelina from Canada   &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  [Hey, I also said that Ebgames.com ships to Mexico, and&lt;br /&gt;
   that someone in Mexico City, one of the largest cities&lt;br /&gt;
   in the world, must sell legal games. I was only jesting&lt;br /&gt;
   when I said that. Of course SWW in no way supports &lt;br /&gt;
   pirates. Unless, they have funny parrots. - ZOndaro]&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Responses: &amp;quot;What System are you most excited about?&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Xbox because I preordered my PS2 and was kinda &lt;br /&gt;
 disappointed although I finished Star Wars Starfighter &lt;br /&gt;
 and thought it was better than Starlancer. I hope that &lt;br /&gt;
 the Xbox is going to be better but I do not think I will &lt;br /&gt;
 pre-order this time. &lt;br /&gt;
  - Wallace Mallery&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 The console I&amp;#039;m looking forward to the most is the XBox. &lt;br /&gt;
 It&amp;#039;s the most high spec and has a whole range of cool &lt;br /&gt;
 Sega games coming out. The PS2 doesn&amp;#039;t interest me at &lt;br /&gt;
 all. The games look crap and it doesn&amp;#039;t really offer&lt;br /&gt;
 anything over the DC. I have started taking an interest &lt;br /&gt;
 in the GameCube. From the games I&amp;#039;ve seen this looks to &lt;br /&gt;
 be the most impressive. I&amp;#039;ll have to wait and see what &lt;br /&gt;
 games comes out. Which ever system gets Skies of Arcadia &lt;br /&gt;
 2 will be the one I purchase.&lt;br /&gt;
  - Jose Garcia &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 The system I am most excited about would have to be the &lt;br /&gt;
 Xbox. With the PC game support, PC monitor adapter, &lt;br /&gt;
 rumored Sega GD support, DVD, great graphics, keyboard &lt;br /&gt;
 and mouse hookups it looks to be a major competitor. &lt;br /&gt;
  - Lildude&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
   [Before everyone writes in, Xbox will not support PC&lt;br /&gt;
    games. Only games made specifically for Xbox -ed.]&lt;br /&gt;
   &lt;br /&gt;
 I am most excited about the Dreamcast still. It&amp;#039;s because &lt;br /&gt;
 I get $10 games for it and the games are better than any &lt;br /&gt;
 others out there today. Don&amp;#039;t get me wrong because I have &lt;br /&gt;
 played lots of games already on the PS2 and they don&amp;#039;t &lt;br /&gt;
 impress! Sega games have always been the games for me and &lt;br /&gt;
 they always will be, nothing has overcome Sega yet!&lt;br /&gt;
  - Marko&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 I think the Gamecube is going to rock the house at this&lt;br /&gt;
 year&amp;#039;s E3! Mario, Zelda, Joanna Dark and Samus!&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Bob Malmet Responses &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I just read the last newsletter. Your response to Bob&amp;#039;s &lt;br /&gt;
comment was sooo funny. I mean I was laughing my so hard &lt;br /&gt;
I had to write to you about it. - Sp134m &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;&amp;lt;.&amp;gt;&amp;gt; Don&amp;#039;t Mess with this Letter&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 I read your publishing of my MY Editorial on FOX&amp;#039;s&lt;br /&gt;
 cancellation of Alien Resurrection and your questionable &lt;br /&gt;
 preference for Buffy. Normally, I would be happy that you &lt;br /&gt;
 printed my letter to you, however, in view of the fact you &lt;br /&gt;
 not only condensed it but, also incorrectly quoted it and &lt;br /&gt;
 made fun of your incorrect quote of it, is a disgrace!&lt;br /&gt;
 I NEVER said the word &amp;quot;sucked&amp;quot;, nor was stupid enough to &lt;br /&gt;
 use the term &amp;quot;was sucked&amp;quot; as printed. Nor am I British, so &lt;br /&gt;
 I do not misspell the word &amp;quot;analyzed&amp;quot; as &amp;quot;analysed&amp;quot;! It&lt;br /&gt;
 really go me MAD, that you not misquoted me, but had the &lt;br /&gt;
 nerve to make fun of me, based upon your misquote! I said &lt;br /&gt;
 that both Buffy and Planet of the Apes would probably be &lt;br /&gt;
 &amp;quot;botched&amp;quot; by Fox. Do you see the words &amp;quot;screwed up&amp;quot; in that&lt;br /&gt;
 sentence? Of course not! When you quote me with my name and &lt;br /&gt;
 Email Address included, in a weekly newsletter read by &lt;br /&gt;
 people worldwide, you had better quote me accurately! I &lt;br /&gt;
 demand a written apology for this injustice to be printed &lt;br /&gt;
 in your next newsletter!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 And for your information, after my friend and I went &lt;br /&gt;
 through hell, because of Fox&amp;#039;s  not Web-Friendly Site, to &lt;br /&gt;
 get an Email Address to write to them; I finally got a &lt;br /&gt;
 reply to a note I wrote to them on the Alien Resurrection &lt;br /&gt;
 matter. 1st they denied emphatically, that they ever&lt;br /&gt;
 considered Alien Resurrection for DC. They stood on their&lt;br /&gt;
 PSX release in Nov. 2000; totally denying quite &lt;br /&gt;
 fraudulently, their original intentions of the DC release &lt;br /&gt;
 pending. They clearly stated that they had no intentions &lt;br /&gt;
 of releasing either Buffy or PoA for DC. In fact they were&lt;br /&gt;
 adamant that they have no intentions of releasing any DC&lt;br /&gt;
 games, since the console is no longer being manufactured! &lt;br /&gt;
 Furthermore, they totally ignored my suggestion that they &lt;br /&gt;
 sell the rights to Alien Resurrection to ACCLAIM, who not &lt;br /&gt;
 only has had success with that movie franchise before, but &lt;br /&gt;
 also, represents one of the top DC publishers!&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
 Any case, since I have the original letter which I sent to &lt;br /&gt;
 you via Email, where I can prove to anyone I desire, the &lt;br /&gt;
 true contents of the letter; I would urge you to plan ahead &lt;br /&gt;
 for a written apology to me, in a future newsletter. It is &lt;br /&gt;
 true that any submissions anyone has made to your newsletter &lt;br /&gt;
 becomes your property to do as you wish. However, when you &lt;br /&gt;
 rewrite such submissions with false quotes and further make&lt;br /&gt;
 fun of the person&amp;#039;s submission based upon your false &lt;br /&gt;
 quotes; you are talking about a potential Defamation Of &lt;br /&gt;
 Character and Slander Suit. Put yourself in my place. &lt;br /&gt;
 Wouldn&amp;#039;t you be upset, if it was you?&lt;br /&gt;
  - Bob Malmet&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
  [I would like to take this moment to apologize for last&lt;br /&gt;
   week when I printed his letter for 40,000 people to read. &lt;br /&gt;
   I would also like to apologize for the English language, &lt;br /&gt;
   which causes so many spelling mistakes every issue. In &lt;br /&gt;
   closing I would like to again state that, Alien &lt;br /&gt;
   Resurrection will suck no matter what system it is on. &lt;br /&gt;

with a set of maracas! These maracas also have a longer&lt;br /&gt;
