Links 2004 (Superb game) and PGR2 (awesome). Waiting on Counter Strike this Friday. Also bought a PC game, The Lord of The Rings:WAR OF THE RING which is also rather very good aswell.

Over the last couple of weeks I've bought:-

RS6 3
Amped2
Top Spin
Crimson Skies
Grabbed by The Ghoulies
Worms3D
Simpsons Hit & Run

Now to find time to play them all!

Re: So What Games Did You Get?

Not to keen on Counter Strike after hearing negative things on it. For example, dated graphics and only 2 modes of play ie Hostage Rescue and Demolitions.

PGR2 and Links2004 will do me nicely.

Games bought this weekend:

PGR2
XIII
Links 2004
Secret weapons over Normandy.

Only game I want now til next year is Max Payne 2.

PGR 2 for me and it is brilliant. I enjoy the single player over the live play just now mainly because i want better cars and only jar is on most of the time

PGR2 - which is going to take up most of my time for a while.

Counter Strike is on it's way also.

Re: So What Games Did You Get?

I bought PGR2 this weekend, & have recently bought RS3 & GC Mario Kart (& before those: Top Spin & Crimson Skies).

Not too bothered about XIII, Links, Amped2, Ghoulies or Secret Weapons.

Like Red, I've also heard a lot of bad things about CounterStrike...

Re: So What Games Did You Get?

i got:

XIII (excellent one player, mediocre multi)
Counter Strike (crap, took it back after 2 days of trying to convince myself it was good.)
PGR2 (awesome )
[EDIT] almost forgot Crimson Skies..another one for taking back, good game on live, but doesnt hold my interest.

completed XIII one player and am now concentrating on PGR2 and getting more cars....i like the constant live updating...a nice touch.

Re: So What Games Did You Get?

I want to know what have people being saying about CS? As far as i can see the reviews dont like the 1 player but its mainly a multi only? Or is it something else?

im not crap lol

heres my opinions:

Good Points:

Moves well
Nice aim
weapon interface

Bad Points:

Only 2 game modes (Yes only 2)
Poor graphics

its a decent game, i just expected more, if i wanted to play a mediocre multi i would play XIII.

but its all personal preference..buy it and try it..

Re: So What Games Did You Get?

I cant believe theres only 2 game modes ! I never played it on the pc so i wouldnt know anything about it but surely the pc online game has more than 2 game modes ? Someone was telling me the game has the custom soundtrack feature, false or true ?
