You can imagine my joy when i reciebed a brand spanking new Playstation 2! You can't well i was overwhelmed it was a present from a friend going to America.

Well today I approached my friend called Ben and he gave me a Dreamcast with 4 very good games (DOA2, RE Code veronica, Sonic Adventures and Shenmue) and I gave him that PS2!

It was the best swap i have ever done!

I have every faith in the PS2. However, my brain does not.

(Damn right.)

It strikes me that not enough notables have any faith in the PS2. There's only Ant, FM, and possibly Meka.

No problem, Jesus always forgives. {:)

Anyway, that was a stupid decision. If you'd given the PS2 a chance (I have, and now have a load of class games including Red Faction, ZOE and StarFighter,) then you would have realised that the PS2 has a superb future, where as the DC has none.

yeah, the PS2 has dropped in Japan to about £210 if i remember, so i think it may drop again soon here but i wouldn't count on it.


I do miss my code veronica on the dreamcast, only 2 months left until the PS2 pal release and it BETTER have the Wesker's report with it.

I never would. BUT if they went to america they wouldn't know about it. I wouldn't swap a present from my family though.

The DC has some great games already and a few more on the way but I would have kept the PS2 personally - A bigger and better future for us all!!

No, i think that the monkeys they employ are the cheapest work force available.
