On a side note, on PGR2 I was expecting all those who ranted about the game to have a fair few of the rankings snapped up however it seems Spikecas**t and sometimes Monkey who have actually bothered doing any of the Arcade challenges. Of course I only have around 4-5 of you on my lis**t but they were the main ones saying how sweet it was. Did you all do it on Novice or something?

Now now darling, we all know I seriously made you look like a bum comb on my first attempt and many following ;)
Got Paris earlier, like the cars but the maps are crap.

As a starter system the Yamaha TSS range are decent enough, that is if you want reasonable quality without the expense. Paid about £320 for my first Surround Sound system and it was good for my room and everything, couldn't hve really wanted more at the time. Don't go for any designed specifically for games or ones packaged with DVD players as they are cheap for a reason.
I have had my eye on a Bose one for a while now, probably the best audio company out there next to Bang and Olufsen but they are extremely heavily priced.
For around £250 just grab a standalone system that requires little to no massive setup, that is all I did first time a round and I was muchly happy with it.

First time yes, but that's because I wanted to get to the XJ220, Koeniggsegg and Enzo as fast as possible. On a hard setting I might not have managed it all first go.
Gone back and done it on mostly golds and a few platinums now though.
