We have all been sucked into a 'console wars' topic at one time or another, generally, though they may not have been based on friendly rivalry, they were discussed within a context, opinions amoungst peers...

However, with more and more mass media stories, like the BBC's recent...

apprearing with greater frequency, and with Christmas steadily encroaching, what affect will this have on the fickle consumers shopping habits?

My sense of humour likely greatly surpasses your own. It is also likely that mine lies a tad higher than the gutter.

My life is my business.

I am, and always have been, in total awe of your sense of humour and massive ability to control your temper Mr Bartender Sir. What a life you must lead.

In the words of David Brent, "That's a shame."

It's probably more to do with SNES games, as they regularly went at stupid prices (Super Street Fighter Turbo was over £70 on launch etc).

Those days are gone. GC games are inexpensive. No-one cares.

Indeed, GC discs are very well priced. But I think the problem is with stuff sold in the 90's - the N64 days.

Nintendo rips people off? yes, they may have been fined for selling expenisve games, but that is a lot of the publishers faults. Plus GC games are cheaper than XBox and PS2 (mainly).

Top Score, you are really begginning to annoy me.........ah well.

I can however say that seeing myself in perspective allows me the leverage to call you an infantile wankstain.

Wookie, don't be fooled for a moment into thinking that I do not look down at myself.

I have been made all too aware of my shortcomings.
