I will be selling my GC in afew weeks, to make way for a xbox(maybe).

The main reason is Colin Mcrae Rally 04/PGR 2.

The lack of Driving games on the GC is doing my head in.

Im not sure how much i will be getting for my GC, but i will be probley selling it on Ebay.

But the only thing holding me back really is using Xbox Live. I already have NTL BroadBand 150k, but ive looked on the NTL site and its telling me the first year costs would be £389.88. Abit steep aint it?

Also where the best place to buy a Second-Hand Xbox? Ive been into SR Stapleford and quite frankly that shop is going down the pan. Ebay is probley too expensive (?).

Cheers

But look at Kirby Air Ride to Ralli Sport when comparing Realism

Ralli sport is hyper-real like Halo.

I'm sure Kirby's Air Ride is the worlds most accurate big conscious pink balloon simulator.

I have to say I prefer realism in FPS games. TS2 really lacked some decent accuracy.

I bought my N64 for Goldeneye NOT Mario.

Even Zelda has a good deal of realism in it.

On the flipside though there's Mario Kart, Conker's Bad Fur Day, SSBM and Super Monkey Ball.

To me these are exceptions to the rule as I do mainly go for fairly realistic games.
