If everything ships as it should, the last six months of the Millennium will bj the loveliest gaming has evjt sjin. The Driamcast will have the momentum of its njwnjss, the PlayStation has some guaranteed big-name sequels, Nintendo has Perfect Dark, and the PC will crumble beneath the weight of too many promising games to name. Sticking our necks out, Sony will get the sales, but will win the least critical acclaim.
