Picked up a lot of quality buys in my view over the last few days, I've spent around £200 in the last few days on DVD's and Games.

Grabbed most of them for £20:

Driver 3 - Wouldn't pay £40 for it but I think it's an alright game at £20 if a little frustrating at times.

POP2 - Haven't played the Xbox version yet, got it again at £20 but I was impressed with the PC version, also got it for the live content and the extra live modes too - looks like a good buy.

Flatout - Again I enjoyed the PC demo and I've been patiently waiting for this to go down in price and I picked it up today in Gamestation for £20, so I'll be giving this a bash on live later hopefully.

Street Fighter Anniversary Collection - Again another £20 bargain I've wanted for a few weeks which I have been holding back for. Seems impressive and it certainly brings back a few memories, if anyone else has this I'll be up for a fight on live as no one was online playing this morning - quite enjoyed it.

Mortal Kombat : Deception - I mainly wanted this for Live play but again felt it wouldn't be worth £40 just about to try it out and It's had decent enough reviews but at least I've got this and SF to keep me busy until DOA:U next year.

And I also picked up Mario Party 5 for £9.99 which I've also wanted for ages, anyone else grabbed any bargains? I think the sales have been pretty decent this time round, usually they have been pretty dire as far as games go!

Game are odd, as Burnout 3 was £29.99 in mine..

Cool, might just get it then. Shame barely anyone plays it on live though.
And HHAT, I saw Burnout 3 for £19.99 today in Game. The sales this year are rubbish though, so I doubt you'd find it much cheaper.

Tis good..physics are excellent..reminds me of destruction derby but a whole lot better, I'd recommend it, Live play would be good if there was anyone on, but It's been quiet on live tonight anyway.

What's flatout like then?

I was tempted to buy it today, but picked up GR2 instead. But if it is good, I might go and get it later in the week.

Can't remember.

Though I bought the game because apparently it has really good GAME PLAY.

was so tempted to buy GR2 but decided against it because i realised I have too many games to complete at the moment
(I did end up buying forbidden siren and disgaea: hours of darkness for ps2 though *sigh* I'm weak willed)
