winning eleven 9? I wonder if we'll see that state side.

The Opera Browser? seriously?

sounds to me like they are going head to head with Sony now.

I really can't picture Winning Eleven 9 on the DS. I dont really think it would be any fun compared to playing it on the ps2 or psp
 
Just the way the graphics would look. I just dont picture the game looking good on the Ds...

So you believe that the graphics make it fun and not the fact that it's one of the best soccer games?
 
Well Im just saying that if I had a choice to play the same game on the psp or the ds I would def play it on the psp. Playing it on the DS after having it for the ps2 for 4 years would be like downgrading in my opinion.

Understandable. But let's say you didn't have to pay for it. Would it still be less fun?
 
Im not saying it would be less fun. But after playing it for the ps2 I dont think it would be as fun for me. Even if the gameplay was identical the visuals would be a letdown after being used to playing them on a different system.

Now if I was a huge fan of the game and only had a DS then I definitely wouldnt complain. Im just saying that since I have the choice of getting it on either the ps2 or the DS, Im gonna pick the ps2 10/10 times.

I know Im just talking about the fun factor. Im just picking your brain here.
 
haha
thats okay. I know what you mean.

I do think its great that Konami wants its game to be more playable on a new system.

What's the Opera Web Browser?

Search for it I even made a topic about it. :D

It's a browser similar to Firefox but it came out first. The reason you havent heard much about it was because you had to pay for it. So not many people had it. But it did come out with Tabs first before anybody else and mouse gestures.
 
our site doesn't really work well with Opera yet.

I believe the store, forums, and game addicts sections do..... but the pages I created don't.  They work fine in IE and Firefox.... but there are some things in CSS I believe that are not displaying right in Opera yet.  I almost have Opera down... just a couple areas of text not being formatted right, and 1-2 areas of cells not being the correct width.

Safari..... that is another browser I am having trouble with.

wow good to know that you're trying to optimize your site for other browsers. Safari can really help you since there are quite a few Mac users out there now. I hate it when sites don't make their sites compatible with Mac OS. It's annoying. I dont want to be forced to use IE.
