OK, I decided to empty my bank account into getting a PS2. There's a couple of games that interest me, but it's mostly going to act as a CD and DVD player.
Anyway, as a big (sucking up) thank you to SR, I'm buying from them, and I'm going for the PS2 Firepack, along with MGS2. Anyway, I have £20 going spare, so I'm going to get a budget game too... but I can't for the life of me pick one. Here's the list that SR has, as well as my opinion on them
JAK & DAXTER (PLATINUM). (RATED 96%) Don't like 3D platformers
GRAN TURISMO 3 A-SPEC (PLATINUM) (I-LINK) 90% Don't like racing games (especially the GT series)
WORLD RALLY CHAMPIONSHIP (PLATINUM) 9/10 Don't like racing games
WWF SMACKDOWN 3 JUST BRING IT! (PLATINUM) (TAP) Getting SD4 when it comes out, no point in getting this
TEKKEN TAG TOURNAMENT (PLATINUM) (TAP) I hear it's pants, but so far it's looking the most likely candidate. I loved Tekken 2 though
TONY HAWK'S PRO SKATER 3 (PLATINUM) 96% Number 4 is almost out, and I got VERY bored of #2 after about 10 minutes
RESIDENT EVIL: CODE VERONICA X (PLATINUM) Never been into the Res games
CRASH BANDICOOT 5: WRATH OF CORTEX PLATINUM Don't like 3D platformers
THIS IS FOOTBALL 2002 (PLATINUM) I enjoy the occasional game of Fifa, that's about it as far as football games are concerned
STAR WARS: EPISODE 1: STARFIGHTER (PLATINUM) 9/10 Hear it's pants
SSX (PLATINUM) Not really into snowboarding games
ONIMUSHA: WARLORDS (PLATINUM) No idea what this is about, but isn't there a sequel out?
TIMESPLITTERS (PLATINUM) (TAP) Hear it's good, but not great
CRAZY TAXI (PLATINUM) 8/10 Despite being a racing game, I do like the look of this
RED FACTION (PLATINUM) See Timesplitters comment
MOTO GP (PLATINUM) No
DEAD OR ALIVE 2 (PLATINUM) I hear it's good
FORMULA ONE 2001 (PLATINUM) (SONY / STUDIO 33) 8/10 Only one thing worse than a racing game, and that's an F1 racing game
ONI (PLATINUM) Terrible, played it on the PC
So what is a green monkey with a giant brain to do? I can't afford anything higher than a budget game, it's bad enough I have to go without food all next week at college so I can afford this thing
Tell me your opinions on the games, tell me what I should get, and tell me quick! I'm looking to order within the next day or so, before I spend all the money on cheap booze

Uh, oh he mentioned console war.
Get Crazy Taxi because it's fantastic for short blasts and I'm guessing that's what your wanting.

Despite there being a deal at Toys R Us for a Cube, 5 games, two controllers and a steering wheel for £200, and despite being a Nintendo fan all these years, the Cube just doesn't interest me. At all. No games, whatsoever, that I want for it, and it doesn't play DVDs. And the PS2 is the obvious winner of the console war.
