Anyway the main reason for the topic is the price of Red Faction 2, on a certain online retailer it's £22.99, rumour has it that the game has good Game Play.
Warra feckin bargain, I know it's not supposed to be the best shooter ever but for that price I could hardly say no.
I've already got Zelda pre-ordered, so I won't get Skies of Arcadia: Legends untill AFTER I'm done with that.
I am looking to pre-order Burnout 2: Points of Impact, but I'm not sure where from. SR STILL don't seem to have it on their database yet! I may go with Gamestation - if they set a price for it - as I'm looking to trade-in Burnout, against it.
I'm also after Enter The Matrix - despite what some people may think of it, after comparing it with other "film-to-games". I'm a huge fan of The Matrix, and I've heard good-things about it. That's why I'll be trying to win GAD, very soon. :)
I won't get Ikaruga for a while yet, either. I'll be looking to get Super Monkey Ball 2 first, before I smash my controller up with something else.
And I'm still not too sure about Hitman 2... It looks like a great game, and sounds like it has some superb features and touches... But I'm not sure if it will be quite the game for me. I'll read more on it, first.
And I think that's it, for the moment.
:D
:-)
I'm getting all three. Problem solved.
FF looks like it's gonna be totally co-op orientated which unless you have 3 friends who love RPG's and want to be constantly round your house, completly sucks.

Skies of Arcadia has a unique storyline that manages to include all the elements of a classic RPG. The graphics may not be to the highest of GameCube or Xbox standards, but graphics don't solely make a game.
Skies of Arcadia, as many people will agree, is undoubtedly one of the best games currently to have been released for any videogame system so far, and is definately not star-star-star-star-star-star-star crap.
Sure, you may not like it, but that doesn't decreasethe quality of the game!
