    You think it's going to be good! Lol yer rite. Listen, the thing is, we all know it's going to be really bad, and yet we're still going to buy it.

    Trufax.

    Any Avatar merchandise is like crack for Avatards. It's questionable how good it is for you, but no matter how hard you try, you're going to have to have it.

    I'm renting first.

    What systems does it work on?

    Apparently with this game they're going to focus more on the wii version, but no doubt it will still be compatible on all of the major games consoles.

    I hope so. They still make Gamecube games right?

    Because the only semi-non-old system I have is Gamecube, and my brother has an XBox. Other than that, I have a Playstation 1, but we lost all of our good games, so that's not much good. And I also have a Nintendo 64.. And well.. Playing Super Smash Brothers, and Pokemon Snap gets old after a while.

    Oh no, they discontinued GameCube games after Twilight Princess as well as Xbox games. PS2 games aren't discontinued yet.

    What total BS! Not everyone has money, gais.

    I'm always behind when it comes to new VG systems, and I'm going to continue to be that way. I didn't get my GC until this summer. I got my 64 a couple of years ago, and I got my PS at least four years after it came out. Not everyone waits outside of Best Buy for hours when a new system comes out.

    Are you SERIOUS? You got a 64 two years ago? Well, I've never owned a 64.

    The only systems I got within the first year are a Game Boy Advance and a Nintendo DS. I go a PS and PS2 two years later. I got a PSP a little after one year, shortly before the price drop (I was angered), and before the upgrade (made more angry. )

    This thread makes me want to buy lots of Avatar-related merchandise. Guess that kind of proves the point....

    I'll have to check out the game. I don't play videogames all that often, and I am terrible at them, but maybe I can rent it. My bothers have some videogame systems... I know they have a gamecube and at least one more system but I can't remember what it is and it may or may not be in working condition. Well, I fail at gaming... *sigh*.

    I didn't buy the 64, my friend gave me his for my birthday. I had been pestering him about it for a while.

    I also have a GBA and a DS. I don't remember when they came out so, I don't know how long it was until I got them. I used to have GBC, but it disappeared years ago.

    What bothers me to no end, is that we lost all three of our Spyro games a couple of years ago. I've looked all of our house several time, and still nothing. And now, I want to play them even more ever since I found out that the guy who did Sparx's voice, also did King Bumi and Hakoda's voice.

    I'm not great. I like Nintendo games the best, and some PS games (Spyro). But I have gotten a lot better, especially at Halo 2. I used to freak out everytime someone shot at me and I wouldn't know where to shoot. But now, I have relatively good aim.

    I remember one time I beat my friend at this one Pokemon Stadium game. I was so excited because I had never beat him in anything VG related

    I don't have a lot going on in my life..

    Sparx's voice in the original PS1 games, or in the new ones?

    We have all of the Avatar games, although im no good at them. (my bro is). I would LOVE to see more Avatar merchandise out there. It would show that maybe Nick does give a crap about Avatar...or at least realize its potential.

    If a sign of more Avatar merchandise is determined by how Nick treats Avatar, then we are screwed.

    Anyone here remember Danny Phantom? Nick killed it after two and a half seasons. Fans are still having "Save Danny Phantom" Protests. I have a feeling this will be Avatar's fate as well...
