But I shall be getting another one, I think I'll shall get a black one, I always wanted a black one.
Although that's probably like saying MoH is a bit like Halo. ;D

Are you seriously comparing The Sims to Harvest Moon?

I have my TV signal split to two TV's for Baldur's Gate, Hunter, Gladius and Wrath Unleashed. I don't want a dumbed down Final Fantasy, I think the presentation and music would grate on me having played some of the early games for a short while.

Nope, but as I say those types of games aren't my thing + there's no multiplayer right?

No the fact that it sounds dreadful puts me off it. Sounds like a simple 2D version of a 3 on 1 in SC:PT. I'll settle for SC:PT.

Nope you are very wrong, the inclusion of the GBA makes it VERY worthwhile.

Ever played Animal crossing? It is no traditional SIM game, in fact there are no games quite like it... bar Animal Crossing.
>Pacman Vs. Not here. What's it like? TBH I've never heard of it.
The second GBA game from Nintendo bundled with R-Racing... one of the greatest multiplayer games since Mario Kart. One GBA required with link lead, one person plays PAcman the other 1-3 play as ghosts... rack up points by eating fruit or capturing pacman as ghosts... then you play AS pacman and gain points by eating pellets, dots and fruit... if you finish without being caught then you get more...
It simple genius... but you need one GBA and one link lead... and have to buy R-Racing so I doubt this'll change your mind.

I'd say FPS-gaming is at least 50% of my gaming time with the other time being spent on multi-format titles. Basically the Xbox has nabbed all the multiformat titles simply because of the ease of the HD.

Doubtful, considering I've looked at it and I know what I enjoy.

Sim-like games I had my fill of when I was about ten and playing Sim City.

Mario Party? I had the first 2 for the N64. I simply bought Fusion Frenzy for the Xbox and let that do the job.

Not here. What's it like? TBH I've never heard of it.

Not if you primarily like FPS games. I started off with the Cube for multiplayer but gradually it lost out to the Xbox multiplayer and now it's hardly worth bothering with.
