I will also admit that the 64 does have cartoony graphics, but I like it better that way. I will also say(just to patch things up with you)that not all the psx games I have played are bad, I enjoyed ff7, symphonies of the night and some others. I guess my big problem with sony is that feel that those games really belong on the 64. But like you said alot of the major third parties(square, capcom,konami who made some of the best games for nintendo)sold out to sony. So I had a choice, either break with nintendo (which will never happen) or wait and see if some of them decided to make games for nintendo again. Looks like the wait is paying of though because konami and capcom are both making stuff for the 64.

If you want to bash somebody, bash Squaresoft. Especailly Final Fantasy 8. Ahh. And I bought the game at TRU cos I got $5 off. For RPGs storyline is important, so is music, music helps set the tone.
