Today, after my Business exam, I went to town and bought the following:
Nintendo Gamecube
Smash Bros Melee
Luigi's Mansion
Official Memory Card
Super Monkey Ball
Star Wars: Rogue Leader
Magnum (Ice cream, not gun)
I've tried to get used to the controls in Luigi's Mansion, but still no luck. Methinks I can't use it effectively, ever. Just as a point of interest, how many ghosts di you all zap up the FIRST time in the training room?
I also bought the following PS2 related stuff, but you shouldn't really care about that:
Deus Ex (PS2)
MOH: Frontline
Escape from Monkey Island (PS2)
Final Fantasy X
Offical Playstation 2 Magazine (2 days before release)
Haven't even played Deus Ex, Escape from Monkey Island (£14!), Final Fantasy X and MOH yet. Oh well.

i would rather have a stand alone. As the PS2 my partner has keep mess ing up half way through movies, skipping and losing sound but its the only dvd player i have. i look at buying a stand alone and amp/decoder but it messed up the sound from the ps2. wanted surround on wipeout. the amp was sony as well and the guy in the shop said it would work.

Can't you completely unplug your DVD player and play movies on your PS2?

Yeah, I've got that problem too. I also have to unplug and plug in the main plugs too. I only have 1 plug socket and I have a 4 way adapter in it. One for the TV, one for the hifi, one split between the DVD and VCR and the last split between my PS2 and GC. I do have 2 scart sockets on my TV but I use one of them for the DVD. I tried just plugging in my PS2 through the 3 coloured leads without using the actualy scart but I couldn't get it to work.
Oh and by the way, I'm waiting for 24 and Lord of the Rings Box Set to find their way onto the SR databases before claiming my GADs. Well, I'm hoping they'll find their way onto the databases anyway. :-D

Vottanator, you have 2 unclaimed GADS. Just thought I'd let you know.
