You are playing a game, a racing game. Like Project Gotham racing and you are first the whole race, then comes the last lap and one of the other cars spins you and all of the over cars over take you and you become last.
ARRGH, i wish game designers wouldnt let the cars do that, it's so annoying.
I just spent 7 minuets doing this huge race, i was sure i was going to win because i only needed to come 3rd and i was 1st, till the git behinde me span me and all the other cars over take me.

*takes deep breaths*

Stupid games, ruin you vision anyways.

Excellent. I'm always aggressive in my driving games. I've been known to kill every bike on a track in Extreme G 2 before. :D

I feel like being a fan boy.
An xbox fan boy.
I wanna argue about the GC, just because it's so crap and if you own one, i feel really sorry for you.

Um no, no way, not atall.

The game cube, well, its a sad sorry case in itself, i only know 1 person with one, and still they wish they had bought the ps2.

Back to the game, burnout 2 is better on the xbox, the GC graphics are, well just poor basically, well compared to xbox. The controller just sucks ass, it looks like it was designed for kids about the age of 4.

And befor you say "But the Xbox controller is almost as big as the console" because i just think that you will say that, it isn't.
There is a new controller, controller S, and it is twice as small (twice as better too I THINK)

No they bloody well don't. Your eyes and your hands are doing completely separate activities, unless you watch the controller the whole time.

Wasnt Mario Kart 64 programmed for stuff like that to happen, and there would always be someone right behind you waiting for you to slip up so him and his buddies could pounce.

a mate of mine had rallisport challenge with a steering wheel, the wheel makes all the difference. Much better, it's like the sega rally arcade games, only better.

It doesn't always work, but when it does it is a sweet revenge.

I have actually gotten rid of PGR as it was too annoying. I much prefer Rallisport Challenge and Burn Out 2, they're not quite as technical but, in my opinion, they are more fun to play and have better multiplayer.
