There are a few games starting to appear on XBox that look good. A few more, and I might consider getting an XBox.
There’s a couple of games on GameCube as well that are ok, perhaps in a few months time, the GC will be the one to get.
What other “exclusive must have” games are due on XBox and GameCube in the next few months?
Should I upgrade now, b4 Xmas, or next year?
The lack of DVD on GC is not a problem for me (i have a standalone DVD anyway).

Hmm? ;)
You really should stop kidding yourself, I have no interest in you. Hurt your feelings when I said I wasn't stalking you?

Added you? If you're referring to MSN, I have no recollection of adding you to my contact list, but then I don't use MSN frequently, as I'm not exactly a fan of it. At most it's used for chats with people like ST, and occasionally to speak to Rosalind, sorry if you're feeling left out. ;)

Hey, step outside once in a while. Not only does it work wonders for your complexion, you also get to meet people, you know - those things on the other side of phone lines. ;)
> I don't remember making an unprovoked attack on you PB.
Substance abuse is detrimental to short term memory, I suggest you scroll down this topic a little, your initial reply which you directed to me would be the one in question. ;)
> Was it another of your dreams again.
No. Again, sorry to disappoint. ;)

See the substance abuse reply? Read it for this comment too. ;)
> Oh, and I'm sorry I don't study the TV guide intimately
Nor do I, the suggestion was to provide visual aid, for your otherwise dwindling mind. You've had difficulty understanding simple concepts before it seems, so I thought I'd help you out this time. The film is called "Next of Kin" by the way. ;)
> neither do I have an intimate knowledge of washed out celebrities names.
Yet you are quite happy to refer to yourself as one? You really are quite an odd child. ;)
HAIL THE STAGG.
> Money, usually.
Oh please!! You can get an X-Box for £150 TOPS!! And what kind of games can they hope to have? We get PD now, Buffy, Burn out, Vice city, Halo and all nintendo have is 3rd party games and internally made ones such as DK wich was left behind by RARE. They have sold one of their best allies and although i'm sure they will prevail X-box for now is the number one console in my eyes.
You're a really good judge of character PB, you seem to know me so well, immature, unintelligent. I bet there are loads of people who agree with you.
I don't remember making an unprovoked attack on you PB. Was it another of your dreams again.
Is your favourite passtime arguing with people younger than you, and insulting them? I bet that really attracts the laydeez.
Oh, and I'm sorry I don't study the TV guide intimately, and neither do I have an intimate knowledge of washed out celebrities names. Sorry to disappoint you.
> You'd Only Be Considerate if you left
*Laughs*
Nope, sorry. ;)
Besides, the thread where Dead called me a bully spoke for itself, more people agreed with me than they did the amoeba patrol. But hey, if it bothers you that much, nothing is stopping you from leaving.
Is capitalising each word in a sentence standard English, by the way?

You'd Only Be Considerate if you left
> Is THAT standard English?
I figure that if I break up my sentences with colloquialisms and slang you're accustomed to, then you've got a higher likelihood of understanding what I'm saying. Aren't I considerate? ;)
> why bother yourself at all ?
Money, usually.
If you want a system that will play both GC games and DVDs, the Q is what you're after, and the money you can save on the games and peripherals themselves if you ship from abroad makes up for the difference in the system's cost.
Why does anybody bother importing? Usually because there is a lot to be said for it, and any minor issues such as stepdown convertors etc. is worth exerting yourself on.
