One word: Pagey

I hope you're right, Grix - for all our sakes.

That was something I just felt needed saying; it's not my intention to 're-open old wounds'.

Sorry, I'm in a good/bad mood today! I seem to be in a bad mood every few minutes, and a good mood the next.

I don't think there has been ANY slating of PS games for at least two months now. I hope this won't bring it back up.

I have to agree with Shanks...

What exactly IS the point of Bleemcast, now that you have to buy game-specific Bleemcast packs at £5?

Assuming that it won't play pirate games (or at best that most of you honest DC folk would be buying 'originals' to play), then effectively all they've done is add £5 to the cost of any PlayStation game you buy.

So, in the long run, it's cheaper for you to either buy a 2nd-hand PlayStation for around £30, or get a brand new PSone for £80-ish and buy PS games at what is effectively £5 off!

Mind you - considering the slating of PS games that goes on here sometimes, I'm surprised any of you are particularly bothered about it anyway! After all, if the PS games are so poor as to only appeal to 'casual gamers', surely you want nothing to do with them. ;-)

Sonic, how will you be able to play GT3? I though it was a PS2 only title.

Initially you would buy a bleemcast "pack" for £20. This would ley u play 100 different playstation games.

However, the released version now costs £5, but only plays ONE game- Gran turismo (3???). This is aweful considering how many times it has been delayed! I may as well buy a PSX for £30 and play any PSX game on it!
