1) Didn't I read somewhere that Battlefield 1942 was coming out for Xbox, or was that just a rumour?
2) What the fook is BC? Just downloaded some video of it, it's got sweet graphics but I can't work out what the hell you're supposed to be doing. All that happens is, a man in a loin cloth runs around hitting dinosaurs with a big club and then burns down some trees. WTF?
3) On Project Gotham Racing is there any easy way of doing those gay cone challenges?
4) When's PGR 2 out?
5) Why does the Library level suck so bad?
That's it I think.

it's a console rts i THINK...made by peter molyneux -the person who made black and white...he's got some interesting ideas...but sometimes his games are more of showcase of technical specs and interesting ideas rather than being a truly good game. fingers crossed then

you can only really get a really good score when you get faster cars...powersliding is key as you can sorta prolong a combo.

ANother question.
twelvety) How do I unlock the funky car colours on PGR?

Looks like a quality controller though and at the end of the day I can't honestly think of a 3rd party controller which hasn't worked for me.
I don't trust Logic 3 ever since I got one of their Cube pads and the top of the stick fell off after about 20 minutes play.
Next controller I am getting for the Xbox is the Logic 3 wireless controller (with vibration). Its modelled on the S-Controller and it looks very nice (if a little expensive).
Finally managed to get the controller S out. HAZAAH!!
Managed to escape with minor bruising and slight laceration of the index finger.

Heh!
Everytime I think of BC I immediatley relate to the Volvic Spring Water advert :)

BC is gonna be like playing the "Volvic" springwater advert.

Its down for release on Xbox this year so I guess so. It will be mainly a LIVE title though which could become a danger when the likes of Halo 2, Project Gotham 2, Operaiton Flashpoint are all out because they will be the blockbuster LIVE titles.

Its going to be a great game by the looks of it and I think its staying as an Xbox exclusive which means they are more likely to use the Xbox hardware to greater effect.

Use the Handbrake and start turning into corners before you actually reach them. On the later challenges you will most definitley need to use the handbrake to slide between cones in order to reach the higher scores.
> 4) When's PGR 2 out?
Most likely January although it will most likely be delayed til March.
> 5) Why does the Library level suck so bad?
It doesn't if you know how to play it. Granted its by far the worst level but even on Legendary I didn't spend more than 1 hour doing it. The key is to ignore all the enemies unless they are in your way or you are forced to fight them. Moving quickly through is the key to the level and although the Legendary mode is Hard I didn't really come across many problems whilst moving and shooting. You could probably do it in 10 minutes on Easy if you moved fast enough.

Good good :)

Good good :)
Good question. Every official thing from Microsoft is almost impenetrable. It took ne ages to rip open the package and get the controller out...and that was with a pair of scissors!
As for the Library, yes it's incredibly samey and repetitive.
