  • Finally got a PS2. I'm only about an hour into FFX, but I'm liking it.

  • Because playing them is not enough, we have to bitch about them daily, too. We had a Gameplay forum, but it got replaced by GameFAQs.

<div style='font: 9pt ; text-align: left; '>Get Grand Theft Auto 3, it's as good as everyone says it is. Also, Gran Turismo 3 is an excellent sequel. Silent Hill 2 is pretty cool, but I'm personally waiting for the extended PS2 version or I'll just get the Xbox version. Same with MGS 2, no reason to touch the original one with Substance comin</div>

I'm not much of a racing fan, so probably no GT3. I thought Silent Hill 2 looked cool, might look into it. As for MGS2, I'll either buy it or borrow it from a friend some time.</div>

<div style='font: italic bold 14pt ; text-align: center; '>gta3 should interest anyone. it is the deepest game to date.....wheather you want to go on a slaughtering rampage, drive around, play spiderman and jump across rooftops, drive around your boat, play the missions, or kill everything that moves</div>

<div style='font: 10pt Arial; text-align: left; '>GTA3 is one of the best games ever made. I don't want to put too fine a point on this, but it beats FFX like a red-headed step-child.</div>

Sadly, I've never been able to get past the second island (could never find a Yardie car to steal for the traids....)</div>

<div style='font: ; text-align: left; '>It starts great and gets better, as you're probably discovering :). What a story. What a battle system. What graphics. What fucking everything! I think it's nudging VI off the top for best of series, for me.

Do give GTA3 a spin, it really is an awesome game. Make sure you start from the start, too! It gets more open-ended towards the end of the game, but I think the story suffers for it.</div>

Have you heard the sound a baseball bat makes when you beat prostitutes to death with one? What about corpses slowly pooling blood as you CONTINUE TO BEAT THEM AFTER THEY'RE DEAD?! Dude! How desensitised are you? :)</div>
