I played all the sega games on this list. Panzer Dragoon Orta... I had forgotten how much I loved that game. I'm going to dig it out and play it now.

It is on the 360s backwards compatibility list isn't it? I hope so.

I bought the halo 2 special edition!!! Shortly afterwards I realised I had spent an extra £10 on a dvd consisting of bungie staff sucking each others dicks for an hour. I'm never buying a "special" edition ever again.

4 months 14 days ago on Thanks for the music?
I work in a music shop(that's a music shop that sells guitars and amps etc. not CDs and DVDs), and I can't tell you how many times parents buy their kid a guitar because of rockband or guitar hero. And thats great.

But the truth is, more often than not, when that kid gets his guitar home and tries to play, he quickly learns that its a LOT harder than the game, and so the guitar gathers dust in the corner while he rocks to holly heaven on a plastic imitation.

On the other side of the coin, there are some kids who do power through and actually learn to play the real thing.

The point is, it doesn't change how many people will learn to play for real, so I'm totally indifferent to it.

Well, nearly indifferent. I HATE those games, mainly because I'm totally shit at them, which is mainly because I've been playing guitar for so many years that five buttons and a flappy paddle are just impossible for me to get my head around.

Now I need a fag.
4 months 19 days ago on QOTW: What was the first movie game that made you hate movie games?
Home Alone on the megadrive. I fucking loved the film when I was a kid, and then I played the game... A BATTERY POWERED SLED?!? How the fuck is that supposed to work?!? Plus it was ridiculously hard, practically impossible. I feel sorry for anyone who opened a christmas present to find that game. I'm lucky, I borrowed it off a mate.

P.S. If anyone answers this question with "goldeneye", I will rip their nipples off.

6 months 25 days ago on QOTW: What's your biggest hobby aside from gaming?
It used to be that I loved games first and music second, but in the last four years or so, its music that has taken the front seat. In 2001 I spent about £150 on a guitar and some strings and other bits. That same year I spent about £800 on a PS2 and a crap ton of games. Last year I spent about £200 on games for my Xbox 360, and about £3500 on two new guitars, a new amplifier, several microphones, some near field monitors, a mixer, an iMac, logic 8, digital converters and probably loads of other stuff I am forgetting about.

To be honest, I'm happy. While I still love to play games, music is so much more fulfilling and saying to a friend "hey, check out this cool piece of music I wrote" holds more weight than saying "hey, check out this cool halo 3 kill".

I liked Pro Evo 2009, its just far to easy. The hardest difficulty is like playing against a retarded monkey. I always though Pro Evo 5 was the best in the series, I never played number 3.
