Another Sony exclusive title taken from their grasp. Well, it already appears regularly on Gamecube, but only in Japan. So, it's the European PES exclusive deal now gone.

Well done Gatesy, you've got yourself an excellent title.

Got my Xbox February 2003 and I haven't seen that message once. I might scratch one of my games so I can see it. You know, just to say I've seen it. I'll be a hit with the lay-deez.

Single player is dire, Live play sounds great fun

> >Halo

Over rated, but co-op is good. *SHOCK!*

> >Midtown Madness

Never played

> >XIII

Good fun, multiplayer is poor. Live play as well.....not as amazing as people make out, but a great game.

It comes with a 2 month free Xbox Live or something, how much is the network adaptor and can you choose whether to pay monthly, yearly or weekly?
If you can pay monthly how much is it and do i need anything else to go live?
I already have my broadband and ethernet cable.

They were very rude though, i went to get a bag for them to put it in (as the PS2 isn't boxed), i looked back at the lounge just to make sure they're not upto something and the man was inspecting my remote control while the other one was sitting a my computer looking at this page!
HOW RUDE!

I actually quite like the single player of this. Multiplayer is fantastic though, better than SOCOM. By far.

> >Halo

One of my top ten games ever. I love it. Fantastic multiplayer, no, brilliant.

> >Midtown Madness

This is a bit crap I think, but the multiplayer is meant to be quite fun on Live.

> >XIII

Game of the show at ECTS. Mentioned in the same sentence as Goldeneye. Not got it to comment on.

Let me see.. £10 for RS3, MM3, Halo and XIII.. yeah well worth it.

> Are the games good?

Two of them are in the top 5 Xbox games.

As for your earlier live question, it is a two month trial subscription. So you won't have a headset, which whilst not needed, is all part of the experience. Plus of course if you want to be able to give voice commands in RS3 single player you need a headset.

A live starter kit with headset and one year subscription is £40 normally, £30 from Amazon. To pay monthly and extend your two month trial will cost £5 a month or £40 for a year. Which is cheaper. But without a headset, which of course semi defeats the purpose.

Not sure, but I don't think you can yet take out a trial, use it for two months and then use the one year subscription from the starter kit to extend it, whilst keeping the same gamertag. They were meant to be fixing that soon, but not sure if it has happened yet.
