Well now that I have all 3 consoles plus the GBA SP, to get games I'm gonna need to use a few titles as trade ins.

So far I'm looking to get rid of...
Big Mutha Truckers
Battle Engine Aquila
Quantum Redshift
Outlaw Golf
Blinx The Timesweeper

And maybe...
Crash
Ghost Recon
Dynasty Warriors 3
Mortal Kombat: Deadly Alliance

I'll have to try The Getaway at some point this weekend too and see what I think of it. If I don't like it then I'll use that as a trade in too.
Trying to stick to major titles that I want over the different formats now so heres what I want so far...

Why are you selling games to make way for crap like Clone Wars?

Why?

May I also add a note to Sav :) You do purchase some pretty average games at times and you should lay off these if you want to save money. Also games like Counter Strike are Free to download on PC (providing you have Half Life and Broadband) so you should look into these before getting their console counter parts. Go down the list of games you want to buy and then tell me which ones you aren't too sure about.

Plus Enter The Matrix is suppose to be part of Reloaded and Reveloutions story line so with out playing the game there will be little bits missing. I think I will be getting the game as it does look good. SR say in there mini review that it has 50 odd hours of gameplay. Hope that is true.

Matrix Reloaded? Its Enter the Matrix as far as I am aware. Until you have read reviews then you can't make a worthy judgement on the game. From the preview I read on GameSpy it stated that the Driving sections needed to have the car physics worked on a lot but the rest of the game was shaping up very nicely.

Until we see a review, from a good source, everyone should be wary of that game because it's odds on it's a crap game masquerading under pretty graphics. Might not be, but I'll be waiting for OXM, Edge or Games TM to review it.

I've read in EGM about how the fighting system works, and in their preview they were concerned about the quality of the driving sections, or to put it bluntly they thought they were rubbish...

He'd blow £45 on a game if he liked the box art.

No good slapper. :P
