Dear Future Gamer,

Greetings from Kenya and Bangladesh. Let me explain. I am a citizen of Bangladesh but ever since the age of four I have been living in Kenya (my current age is 17 and I'm writing this email from Kenya). I love your great mag and have been reading it since the first issue.

However I was wondering if you could improve your charts? Why not give us the charts of other countries or how about including a mixture of all the charts in the UK, not excluding the separate ones for each console (or PC)?

Now I have a few questions:

1. Do you believe that Sony should divert all their resources from the PS to the PlayStation 2 so that they can make it as successful as its predecessor?

2. Sony, Sega and Nintendo are all preparing, or have already made the next generation leap, to 128bit processors. Do you think that the 32 and 64bit eras have been milked completely or has the leap to 128 bits come too early?

3. Which Dreamcast game are you looking forward to the most?

FG: I bet it's sunnier there than it is here. On to your points. I'm happy to print some other charts from around the world, so if there are any companies out there from America, Japan or wherever who'd like to have their charts printed in FG each week, get in touch.
1. No. It's too soon, there's plenty of life left in the PlayStation yet.
2. Hmmm. I don't think the leap's too early at all though it's questionable whether that leap's been truly made.
3. The best Dreamcast game I saw at E3 was NFL 2000. The game featured some truly amazing visuals and though I only got to watch others playing it, the gameplay seemed solid enough. Sadly, the game's not included in their European launch line-up (though that wouldn't affect you anyway).
