Guest Paul [MVP] Posted January 8, 2005 Report Posted January 8, 2005 Bargain or what! http://www.argos.co.uk/webapp/wcs/stores/s...roductId=100290 P
Guest Pondrew Posted January 8, 2005 Report Posted January 8, 2005 Hate to say it but isn't this the death knell of the Gamecube?
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted January 8, 2005 Report Posted January 8, 2005 Dunno really, a lot of people I know seem to be buying them at the moment in fact, mostly to play Donkey Konga admittedly... P
Guest Pondrew Posted January 8, 2005 Report Posted January 8, 2005 Well, if a unit as good as the Dreamcast could fail then it wouldn't surprise me. If I wasn't feeling skint I'd pick up one of these myself. On the other hand, I think I'll just stick to the Xbox.
Guest amo Posted January 8, 2005 Report Posted January 8, 2005 I got one from my ex last christmas - its not been used in almost a year!
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted January 8, 2005 Report Posted January 8, 2005 Man, the Dreamcast rocks... still have mine! P
Guest blade001 Posted January 8, 2005 Report Posted January 8, 2005 Man, the Dreamcast rocks... still have mine! P <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dafinatly does. I Remeber playing SoulCaliur (the first one) on it for hours and hours. I think I still have it some where. Got to dig it out :D .
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted January 9, 2005 Report Posted January 9, 2005 I still have mine all cabled up, and play it regularly, there are some awesome games that still stand up against current consoles! P
Guest sparkisgti Posted January 9, 2005 Report Posted January 9, 2005 throw all that stuff in your loft and grab a Sony PSP.. best console out at the mo.. including proper ones.. ridge racers looks and plays much better than ridgeracer 5 on the ps2 8) cant wait for gt4 mobile :twisted:
Guest amo Posted January 9, 2005 Report Posted January 9, 2005 /me gets ready for onslaught of insults to follow... I got the latest Soul Calibur for Xbox recently and didn't think it was all that. Much prefer Tekken series, mind you not played beat em up games since the good ol original Playstation - Tekken 2 was the best, oh and Dead or Alive
Guest Pondrew Posted January 9, 2005 Report Posted January 9, 2005 I've been playing Legend Of Cain: Soul Rever after it was recommended to me by a guy in Gamestation. Excellent. I'm also hoping to get Half Life soon too. It's a travesity that Sierra pulled the plug before releasing it...
Guest Paul [MVP] Posted January 10, 2005 Report Posted January 10, 2005 Propeller Arena is another one that was pulled, in the wake of 9/11 apparently... P
Guest Pondrew Posted January 10, 2005 Report Posted January 10, 2005 Will have to do some research on that...
Guest pwest13 Posted January 10, 2005 Report Posted January 10, 2005 Sold my GameCube for my Xbox, i miss World Cup 2002 on it tho :D Yet to find a good Xbox Football game, any1 know? One on live would be even better :D
Guest Pondrew Posted January 10, 2005 Report Posted January 10, 2005 Sorry, never been into footie games (with the two notable exceptions of Premier Manager and Championship Manager)

I'd buy one if Ridge racer was the only game available on it :D
Guest mike-oh Posted January 11, 2005 Report Posted January 11, 2005 will there not be the next gen consoles coming out shortly? Possibly in time for crimbo 2005? Besides, my PC has more game crunching power than any of your puny consoles! :twisted: ***runs for cover***

The best thing about consoles IMO is you switch them on and play, no need to install and configure etc. The worst thing, the prices of the games! and the fact that your console will ultimately become completely obsolete (to the point it becomes "retro" and "old skool" when it becomes good again :D).
