Well that's not entirely true, hype is a wonderful thing, have a babe walking around the show floor, and in a few magazines and you will sell more games. You can name any number of games & films that do stupidly well because of hype or babes, the whole boy band thing is all down to hype and selling to little girls. > Do you two like Soul Reaver? Again I played a demo of it and it's controls were a lot better than TR, there still wasn't enough action, very few creatures to kill and before you complain that I just don't like puzzle/adventure games, I loved Zelda 64, I'm now getting into FF8 (despite not getting on well with FF7 - FF8 is a lot better IMHO), I've also loved every Monkey Island game and many others.
