The S.S. Leaky has once again (we did this five years ago) washed you up on a deserted island in the middle of an unknown sea. Luckily, the island has its own power grid and all mod cons, including a fantastic home entertainment kit that just happens to include the world's only multi-format console that can play any game from the past/present.

When you switch it on, the instructions are as follows:

"Select your title from below. Once selected, this will be the only title that this console can play, ever."

You're given a choice of every title ever released, which will you choose?


Personally I was thinking about Forza, but then I wondered if it would still be as good without my customised soundtrack. I thought about Final Fantasy X-2 just to annoy Kwada momentarily, hmm'd and haa'd about Halo 2 for a bit, then settled for...

Final Fantasy XI

Which of course is sheer brilliance because not only is it long lasting, never ending and highly addictive, it's also a MMORPG.

So what would you choose?

Since I'm currently without broadband I'd like to get Perfect Dark back, failing that Halo 2 presses all the right buttons online.

Being a Sonic fan, it would be Sonic Mega Collection every time because I get all the Megadrive Sonic games on one game.

Putting Sonic aside, it would probably be something like PGR2 or GT4. Maybe even a Championship Manager/Football Manager game.

That's my close 2nd. It would have been first but I enjoy sleeping from time to time.

That wouldn't annoy me, it'd amuse me greatly actually, but then i'd feel sorry for you being stuck with such a game for all eternity...........then back to laughing.

Has to be Disgaea 2 for me with MVP Baseball 2005 a close second
