From a review of "Pikmin" on IGN:

"That said, it becomes extremely important to take care of your Pikmin because of the tight 30 day schedule. Unfortunately, in game time each day is only about 15-20 minutes long depending on cut-scenes and pauses. So in the main adventure only amounts to about 10-12 hours of gameplay. This is perhaps Pikmin's biggest flaw. It rushes you through these lush environments forcing you to complete the game in about 10-12 hours. Ever worse the last two of the five environments are absolutely spectacular, packed with puzzles, and we need not spoil the awesome last boss for you. Why is that a bad thing? Simply because you don't want it to end. Pikmin is such a fresh, new kind of experience and you are rushed through it."

So it forces you to finish in about 10hrs?
Balls to that.
I think I wasted my money on a Gamecube to be honest, Star Wars is good but I've done it and the Monkey Ball thing is simplicity itself.
And nowt being released I want.

That'll learn me to ignore my instinct and return to my own vomit.

I've only read this from an X-box fan, but supposedly GTA3 is coming to X-box. (I'm not saying that's fact, just repeating what I read not long ago from someone on here)

There's been no announcment that Doom 3 will be coming to any consoles. Also when the heck was Quake 4 announced?

Isn't Red Faction Playstation exclusive?

If you buy all those games you wont be able to fit in your bedroom.

The tape will cost you £6, plus £1.50 p+p. :-) Theres some good stuff on there covering all 3 consoles plus the GBA. X-Box owners will probably love the look of Steel Battallion. :-)
