Cool, thanks for the tip. I'll keep a dancemat handy in case I ever find myself at the same party as you!

Oh dear. You got out a dance mat at a party?

I wouldn't have sat in a corner, I'd have been out the damn door.

If I want to dance, I'll go to a nightclub, I won't prance around making myself look like a buffoon in my own home, or anyone else's.

Oh dear the bitterness is showing through again. God forbid you should actually use a games console to have fun with!! What kind of sad geek would do that?

I was at a friends 25th birthday party last weekend and he got out a dancemat and a copy of Dancing Stage. I'm sure you would have sat in the corner "despising with ferocity"... but everybody at the party loved it, including the old folks. Gaming is meant to be a shared experience.

There are few things I despise with greater ferocity than people sad enough to buy a steering wheel for their console.

It's comparable to bying one of those "skateboards" or mayhap even a dancemat.

I guess this is one you haven't played at a friends house then, because nobody can deny it's better after playing it. And if you are going to use single games as the excuse for buying a console then it certainly is worth buying a PS2 for.

PS2 + force feedback wheel + Burnout 2 = arcade heaven!

The grammar was intentional, a sleight to show that the majority of time spent on the PS1 was with FF7. *shrug* Make of it what you will. Personally, I have never made any claim to say that my grammar is impeccable. Besides, if you can't type a few decent words of english, or read them without feeling that the person who typed it is "overblown", then the problem lies in your education, not my posting style.

Burnout 2 does interest me, but it's not a game to buy a PS2 for.

Burnout is fun. But in my experience, racing sequels rarely make a great improvement over the original.

Besides, I only play it to ram the bus into trucks at 140mph down the wrong side of the road.

For somebody who writes in such a pompous overblown style, your grammar sucks.

I just popped over to the Nintendo forum - you don't seem to have very many posts over there but I did notice you recently bought Burnout. So tell me... why doesn't Burnout 2 interest you? It's a massive improvement on the original.
