F-Zero to Feature LAN Support
 
http://cube.ign.com/articles/427/427552p1.html

Why Nintendo didn't bother announcing this at e3 is beyond me as F-Zero was one of their best games on display, but eh.

Great, now me and my group of friends who consist of more than four people can all have fun simaltaneously! :)

In a bit of confusing news, IGN has updated the story saying it was a mistake on their sources behalf, I hope this whole thing gets cleared up soon.

No, it means you can play it online.

LAN (local area network) is meant for a group of freinds to play on different gamecubes and TVs. The internet is just an added bonus that gamespy has given.

YESSSS!!!

****.

Sega made a correction statement. No LAN.

**** **** ****

GameKinG 07-08-2003 03:13 AM

Damn, I was hoping there would be LAN. It would be even more fun then it already is if there was 4 or 8 'Cubes linked up.

4 Gamecubes, sure.

But 8 Gamecubes, that's just downright inconvenient.

Unless you're rich and you have a large room with 8 T.V.s right beside one another.

OR YOU PLAY IT ONLINE!


Jesus, don't you understand what I'm talking about?

Lan play is as close as you're ever going to get in a first party nintendo game. No Lan is a HUGE loss.

Re: F-Zero to Feature LAN Support
 
Are you suggesting that somewhere out there, lurks software that would allow me to play this game online with friends?

GameKinG 07-08-2003 09:06 PM

No LaN isnt a huge a loss, it wasnt even a gain to begin with. Many games can be fun (dare I say more fun) offline. Now LAN would be nice, a perk, but I dont think it should be the justification in a purchase or not.
