Got The House of the Dead III today. I was worried that all that flashing that appears on-screen (which is apparently necessary... God knows why) every time you pull the trigger was going to induce severely painful headaches for me, like Confidential Mission did on the Dreamcast (luckily, I never bought that). But so far my zombie busting's been pretty much migraine free.

Also, how come I never heard about the House of the Dead movie preview being on the game disc? I watched it and the movie does look like it'll be worth seeing, if only to compare it to the game and annoy cinema-goers with your "that never happened in the game!!!" rantings... along with the obligatory chucking of the popcorn/sweets/drink at the people in front of you.

Anyway. Good game. I shall review it soon.

If I'm in a bad mood, I'll read the crappy ones that people have done to cheer myself up.

You know who you are...

I do - read people's reviews that is.
Just off the top of my head, I remember reading Edgy's FIFA review in sheer disbelieve that he actually thought it was good. I remember reading Dark Mark's Crazy Taxi 3 review... I read quite a lot of reviews to be honest.

Fifa 2003 is a brilliant game - as opposed to Fifa 2002 World Cup which is utter toss.

Just because its an official Fifa game, it doesn't automatically make it bad.

True. But my Fifa prejudice runs so deep that to be open-minded for one minute would take an act of will so powerful that my head would drop off.

I've been sucked-in to many of the past installments only to be let down by their utter crapness, so I can't even contemplate giving the new one a try.

Dark Mark - yknow the bit where you calibrate the gun, you first shoot at the centre of the target in the middle of the screen yeah ? Then do you get a target to aim at in the top left of the screen ?

Just got it today and it seems hard to hit that top left target, but even without hitting it the gun seems accurate - had to get the Madcatz green one because out of ALL the stores in Nottingham, supposedly the best place to shop after London, NO ONE had any other gun, in fact the only way I could get the game was because the guy in front of me traded it in at Another World.
