Taken from www.officialxboxmagazine.co.uk: -

"The results of the largest survey of gamers this year has revealed that Xbox is the top console of choice this Christmas.

Over 12,000 US gamers were asked, "What console do you plan to buy in the coming year?" and 39 percent answered Xbox! 27 percent answered PlayStation 2, and 17 percent plan to pick up a GameCube.

The study also showed that game demos are the most influence over game purchase decisions. When asked "Which of these items highly influence your game purchase decisions?" nearly 8 out of 10 respondents (78%) ranked game demos the number 1 factor, far ahead of the number 2 response: game reviews (47%). Both television commercials (35%) and magazine ads (31%) trailed furthest behind as drivers."

Not bad eh?

N64 games where very expensive anyway, can't remember the exact prices. I wasn't bothered though paying the extra cause I new when I bought a game that it would be quality.

But anyway that's go nothing to do with Xbox. Xbox prices aren't that much higher anyway.

I remember the likes of Mario 64, Zelda (OOT & MM), Perfect Dark, Banjo, Killer Instinct, etc all being around the £50.

I was gonna mention Turok as well - that price was disgraceful.

That was a one of few at that price, Turok was originally £70 which is just crazy.
