We all have games that we HAD to get on release day. What were they for you? Did they live up to expectations?
There's only 2 games ive bought on day of release, they were MSR and B&W. MSR definately lived up to my hopes. B&W is good, but i think i need to play it some more to really get into it.

actually i aint hyped about the GC. I know it probably wont do as well as the PS2 sales wise, but as long as its nintendo i will be happy. Anything with the nintendo tag always brings a smile to my face.
I got it for christmas too and i also think it is great but when i play 3 player with my mates theres very few levels anly 6 i think. the only minor gripe i have with the game.
I mean, the Indrema is finished. Why?? Becuase no one knew of it, and no one really cared about it.
If it had been hyped, I expect the project would've been more successful.
If I didn’t like the MGs2 demo, don’t you think I would have told everyone what a waste of money it was? Im not going to pretend that the £40 I spent on it was well worth it if I didn’t like it now would I! As Ant said, there are plenty of peoples views on the demo, you go off and read them and then come back and see if you can say we will be disappointed.
If I hadn’t of played the demo, then yes, I could be a little disappointed with the outcome of the game but considering as I have played it, through and through about 10 times, I have a feel of what the game is going to be.
So come on, I don’t dish out abuse on the Gamcube so I don’t expect the PS2 to be called trash.

Well, I have played MGS2, and that easily lives up to it.
my first online game didnt go so well as i was dissconected after about 15 seconds.
but i went rite back in and made some friends and enemies online.
