Fucknig hell.. i bought splinter cell for the PS2 and got to mission 7 in 2 days....... shite it was.. shite.

YaY im getting that halo2 collectors biscuit tin because i pre ordered.

That new Mini PS2 looks nice, but I dont think I'll go buy it, I'm happy with my regular PS2.

some images of the new slimline PS2

Dude..... Snake Eater should really be on that list otherwise it's even more biased than it is already. Snake Eater should be awesome the last MGS game to be directed by Hideo Kojima and a game that will probably blow GTA San Andreas out of the water and it comes out of the shadows (for Europe) March 2005.. I can't wait!

thats the one


halo2 is awesome, and that metal thing is the case lol!
if only it dident lag so bad, when ever i go in a room there
are no walls for a second, because its so graphic intense

hl2 will be better than Halo .

Whos beaten halo 2 and on what difficutly

i beat on difficutly: easy

Well you can't really compare the two different games, Metal Gear Solid: Snake Eater, is a shoot 'em up stealthy game, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, is a shoot 'em up, driving game. They're pretty much different genres altogether!

Anybody can post some pics. of the new nintendo revolution, ps3 and the Xbox2????

i believe Halo 2 will be a good game when i get it.. I really hope it will run good on my NEW XBOX

HL² countdown: http://www.marcopolo.me.uk/hl2/Half-Life_2_Countdown/index.html

Finally a GTA San An ad on tv. Basically the ad is 30 secs long has fastclips with CJ shooting and joy riding to the tune of Guns N' Roses - Welcome to the jungle and it finishes with CJ walking out of some flames. It is pretty cool and it makes me want to complete the game now (I got a bit bored with it.)

Yeah, the game had that affect on me aswell..

The few new games that have came out haven't been as good as they said they were going to be unfortunately, driv3r, san andreas ... its quite annoying really... San Andreas is amazing, no doubt, but it isn't really a big step from the other two, the graphics are crap for it.... I think that if you have the ai and technological crap from san andreas and the freedom from that, the darkness of gta 3, as it seems like that was the only real one that you felt like a gangster, and the levels from GTA: Vice City, and the vehicles from all 3 games.. that would be the ultimate Grand Theft Auto.

I loved GTA on Portland Island working for the mob. Now if GTA 3 stayed like this through out then that would have been a far better game then it was (although it was brilliant anyways.) Vice City tied up No.3 alot and still quite a high level of the mob were in the storyline. San An did nothing for the mob theme and made it's own storyline (apart from a few things later on.)

Now if GTA 3's storyline was extended into the full game, the game had the sheer size of San An and the gameplay of San An we would be talking about the greatest game of all time IMO (which I would certainly love to see.)

The good thing that they've done though is linked all of the three games together in one way or another... I like the way they have done this.

Well my hats of to R* as they have made a lot of money but I would much rather see R* making a game to last for the ages.

Well, my dear guys.
I played Halo 2 yesterday and I have to say it's nothing compared to HL2 (which I bought today). It seems like every wall and every texture is a peace of art. And everything that happens is full of details.
Lips move following what's said... In any language! Everything has volume and everything you can grab you do grab. There's always more than one way to solve a part while interacting or not with your environment.

For example:
Remember those mosnsters that stick to the ceiling with a long tong hanging down that caught you and leeched your blood? Well, you can kill one or two with your gun without wasting to much ammo. But 5 is a bit tougher. Now take a look around. You se a flammable barrel you could use if enemies where cloe enough, or if these monsters were a bit closer to the floor. Hm... you grab it... and throw it to the tongues. Then one or two of them fight for pulling the barrel up and trying to lecch whatever it has. Interesting, before they see it's just a fuel barrel, you shoot once and... boom. 5 monsters less and a free way.

And things like this everywhere!

It's so amazing... It's cheaper than Halo and so much, much better.

Just try it out

I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2! I got Half Life 2!

Does HL2 have multiplayer?

i got half life2 today as well over Steam its really good. and yes there is a multi player but its counter-strike source so it doesnt use any of the good weapons in half life2 like the gravity gun. dont worry though if you have bought half life 2 its more than just a game you can play once or twice. its an investment when halo2 or gta san andrease are long gone i and others around the world will still be playing the many mods of half life 2. its going to be so good!!!!!

I still play Half-Life 1 so

I was hoping there was a Half-Life Native multiplayer (non-counter strike) Hopefully someone will make a decent mod to bring the native HL2 to multiplayer fun

I don't like any of the Vietnam games, they're all stupid and I hate them seriously, there are too many of them coming out all at once, I prefer the good old world war 2 games, you think that they'll ever bring out a ww1 game?? that would be insane in all of the trenches .

Hm, well.  Battlefield 1942 was WW2 related.

Anyway. in Battlefield: Vietnam, they made an official WW2 mod and it's really fun too :]





And Battlefield 2 isn't Vietnam anymore.


EDIT:  By the way, they're all entertaining games in my opinion, whether they are Vietnam or WW2, lol. :]

oww this is soooo kewl   awesome

Nice. But the normal box will do me.

i got paper mario the thousand year door for x-mas , but now im stuck at the end

all my friends are bugging me to play maple story >.<"

Ever Play Halo 2 Titty..... G/T= A Town Joe (add me anyone)

Haha, yeah.  Went to a friend's house on Saturday and had three Xbox's.




I was the host / person speaking.  My team lost anyway.  HAHA.
If I remember correctly the scores were close, like 150-148 etc.
Played a few rounds.

I don't have an Xbox but I play it at my friend's places.

I saw psp on tv. Looks real cool
Also i like a upcomming game called juiced - racing and u can modify ur car (almost all games now a dayz have that)
Halo 2 ought to be cool but heard that its ending aint too good (not sure cause i switched on the tv a bit late )

I cant wait for San Andreas to come out for PC. That game is gonna be ripper
