Hats off to Sony unlike MS and Ninty they are there to make gaming affordable unlike the others who are only interested in profit.

Sony scored a big hit with the PS1 and platinum games, which were affordable quality games that had to sell a certain amount to turn platinum, while N64 was still trying to sell cartridges for £64.99 Sony's platinum range came in at £19.99 and proved a big hit.

I am glad to see they are carryiing on the tradition with there PS2 platinum range. I mean lets face it GT3 is a far superior game to Project Gotham and yet it is have the price. They say you have to pay for quality but on this evidence you don't.

Then you're a bit thick aren't you? Is you're brain so narrow-minded and small that you cannot perceive? Go back to your hole. Oh, and take a dictionary.

And as I have said before, the PS2 doesn't *own* these games. These are from third party developers. And now, if you don't understand what that means, it means developers who aren't working exclusively for PS2. Therefore, they release their games on other consoles too. Xtreme G3 belongs as much to the GameCube as it does to the PS2.

Not really, GTA Vice City is said to be coming to GameCube, so who needs GTA3? Medal of Honour will be easily beaten by Turok Evolution or Perfect Dark: Zero. Nintendo make the most original and innovative games, and also have Rare working alongside them. I don't feel ripped off. I think you're talking out of your fanboy.

I understood that, and I'm sure everyone else did.

You have to be the thickest person on these forums...I'm sorry but if you couldn't understand that, then you should maybe go back to nursery or something...

What am I on about...I'm not sorry! That was a figure of speech!

I wouldn't expect you to. It was a simple spelling mistake.

Oh, stop trying to be clever by pointing out a small typing error.

I take it you haven't made any mistakes whilst posting in this thread...?

ok, three new games for the Nintendo GameCube that I could have got instead:

Star Wars Rogue Leader
Luigi's Mansion
Wave Race Blue Storm

and there are plenty more brand new games first and third party I could've bought too considering the games are all roughly the same price!
