What do you actually do in it mate?

And any other recommendations?

You Kung Fu fight and drive cranes while trying to catch some murderers

It's really immersive and top, TOP stuff

You're an asian bloke who goes around roundhouse kicking people in Quicktime events.

... I didn't sell that well did I.

A rather bargain £36 too.

With:
Soul Calibur
House of the Dead 2 (although I don't think it comes with a gun so a bit pointless!)
Virtual Tennis
Headhunter (which was boss if I remember rightly)
Tony Hawks (words can't describe how much I want to play this again)
Ready 2 Rumble boxing
Metropolis Street Racer (which I think was like Project Gotham/Forza before they became them).

Quite excited.

That Shenmue seems a little pricey for a game I don't know much about.

Completely forgot about Virtual Tennis... utterly amazing game.

From what I've just read the second one was better apparently. Ah well.

And I added an unnecessary 'l' to the end of virtua.

Ha, and I copied you!

I think I actually had Virtua Tennis 2. I wonder if they'll release a new one for the current consoles? I'd pick it up for sure.

Doesn't "Top Spin" use the same engine?

It sounds like Sleeping Dogs.

The sales.

They have begun.

Just bought Bully, LA Noire and Max Payne 3 for £12 on steam sales, bargains.

Bully was effing immense.

Like Harry Potter on many many drugs.

Batman: Vengeance on the Original X-Box

My word does this game conrtol horribly

Cut scenes are very good, but everything else is positively wretched

You can't even look around using the right stick FFS

If it's an old school lightgun it won't work on modern tvs anyway. That's why the wii has that annoying sensor that goes above/below the tv.

You can pick up old crt tvs pretty cheap though.

Just bought the necessary bits and bobs for a fairly high end computer build, anyone recommend a game that's actually graphically ace and still good to play on the PC?
Going with GTA and Battlefield to start, test the quality settings I can achieve, bit out the loop on PC games though, not really played any since the PS3 arrived.

Fallout and the new Witcher are very resource hungry.
