the controller was more like a keyboard. If wreckless is one of there best games they don't have very good games then. They couldn't fit it inside the bowl thing so they put an extention on. It was terrible. I would only buy it if it was less than £10 or $15. It isn't worth buying for £300.

for me all the games cost about the same...around 25-30 new...
i always use auctions to get all my games new now cos they are so much cheaper.
only prob with that is you have to wait -for it to finish, money to be sent off and even for cheque to be cleared.
but if you're saving 20 quid from normal high street prices i think it is worth it.
i got oddworld for 24 quid, pgr for 30 and wreckless for 30...all brand new....not bad going is it!

The games on Xbox are about the same price as the other consoles. PS2 launch games where £45, every game £45 the same as the Xbox. Most PS2 games are now £40 with some being £45. SR sell PS2 games at a greatly reduced price. With games like GTA3 you can save £8 off the price.

GC games are £40 with SR giving a few quid discount. Xbox games are £40 or £43, SR are giving only a small discount on games.

The games for all 3 consoles are roughly the same. A matter of a few quid doesnt make any difference. What would matter is if Nintendo stuck to cartridges and started charging £50-60 for a game. Then you could moan about cheap and expensive games. But with only a couple of quid difference between the full retail price of games, then theres no reason to moan.

Its good but the games aren't all they were hyped up to be!

I was emensly disappointed at its lack of fun! If there wasn't such hype i probably would have enjoyed it better!
Yes its better than the ps2 and it might be better than a game cube (which incidently is no kiddies console, just cheap and fun) but with the ps2 and the game cube costing less they will sell better- no contest!

To be honest its like buying a really fast car then realising that you must buy nuclear cells that create nuclear fission, but you find out that its only slightly better than a much cheaper car that is solar powered (cheap games) which runs almost as well.

I hope you see my point that x-box is good but is only slightly better and don't start slaggin my oppion off just because microsoft pays you to!

Quick assumption there, eh? Maybe you shouldn't think all people that act like this are PS2 owners, because, believe me, you are wrong.

I think this guy is a ninty, as I have seen him on the nintendo forum quite a few times, praising the GC.

So, I don't think he supports Sony.
(Thank god).
