  1. Here is my complete collection of GC games. Also included, but not pictured is Metroid Prime and Simpsons Hit and Run
  2. http://shop.gameplay.co.uk/webstore/productpage.asp?productcode=GC0886 There's the link to it on the Gameplay site. That sneaked out into the shops, never read a review for it either
  3. Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes is the rarest game i've got in my collection. Can't find a new copy or pre-owned copies anywhere.
  4. Sales of the 360 will go sky high next year. I read on the BBC site earlier in the year that Microsoft have managed to make a cheaper processor for the 360 that keeps the console from overheating and the 360 will drop in price early next year. Good news for those wishing to buy a 360. With all the new games (Halo 3 for starters) coming out for the 360 next year and a cheaper priced 360, Microsoft have nothing to worry about.
  5. They give us Nintendo go!!. As it is a channel, Nintendo give us.............a webcam channel for us to watch game developers in action. Comes complete with Instant Messenger to chat with developers
  6. Die Hard Great 80's Action Film, best of the whole Trilogy, great story and some great performances from the cast. 9/10
  7. I've seen enough dogs nd cats run over round my area. Last Dog i saw run over was a couple of weeks ago around a corner. Lets just say it was a sick sight to see. The eyes had popped out of socket, blood nd guts were sprawld over the road and the whole lower jaw had been crushed. At least someone had the decency to move it to the pavement.
  8. I'm in the process of completing Ocarina of Time. At the moment, i'm just entering the Shadow Temple. I've got 85 Skulltulas, 17 Heart Containers, 50 Arrow Quiver, 50 Bomb Bag. Lets just say that i've done and got absolutly everything up to the Shadow Temple
  9. Bought this game last year, it's alright i guess. Multiplayer is a hoot, which is all i ever play this game for now.
  10. Two of my favourite box arts I prefer the American box art to the European art because this looks more advertising than the European one. I just like it, makes me want to play the game again lol
  11. I did a test, it outputs a signal which is better than the composite signal, but not as good as the RGB signal. I don't use it for the GC, as i got a RGB for that but for the Wii, i will use it until an RGB becomes available.
  12. Most expensive game for me was Donkey Kong 64, which cost me £59.99. It did come with an expansion pack, which was handy when i got Perfect Dark a couple of weeks later.
  13. With an added addition that i got a scart block that the composite cables slot into i.e. it's a scart plug with three pin slots for the composite cables to plug into. It's pretty handy for getting a better picture out of composite cables. Plus, it supports 60 Htz games like MP2 and displays them with a crisp picture
  14. I've been using RGB scart cables since the N64 days, and have been using the same cable when i got a Cube. So when i get a Wii, i'll be using the cable with the Wii. I've got a portable TV in my room, which displays the picture on-screen brilliantly. As and when i get a HD-TV, i'll get the component cables. I was reading somewhere that composite cables provide an ok picture, RGB provide a great picture and the componant cables provide the best picture possible for the Wii.
  15. It's hard to decide which five games i would keep, but i know i would definetly keep Wind Waker, MGS:Twin Snakes and PoP:Two Thrones
  16. This makes me want to dig out the original and play it. Pity i can't, my N64 and most of my games were nicked. Lent it to a mate, then he moved away with my stuff. I'll have to buy another N64, only £20 on e-bay.
  17. If it comes out on the VC (most likely will, it is Nintendo owned). I'll be downloading it and completing it once again. It was a great game
  18. This game is the worst game i've ever played on any system. I remember renting out the game, wanted to see what it was like n stuff. Within 5 minutes of gameplay, i ended up using this as a paperweight because that was the only good thing about the game in the end
  19. Ah, this brings back a lot of good memories about the game. Majoras Mask was, and still is one of the darkest thrilling Zelda games i've played. Last played on this game a couple months back, best bit of the game i thought were transforming into Zora's, Goron's and Deku's. This game has so much replay value thanks to the three day time cycle. Must get back to playing this game, still got a couple of heart pieces to get which are the ones in the mini-games that take three days to get. I found this out when i was playing the lottery in the game.
  20. Nice videos, brings back a lot of memories of past gaming
  21. Depends, i use Mario, Link, Ganondorf and Mewtwo a lot of the time. But as i said, it depends who i play against.
  22. Not according to Nintendo Europe, they guaranteed that Europe will get Twlight Princess on the GC released in shops across Europe on 15/12/2006. At the moment, i've pre-ordered Twlight Princess for the GC from Gameplay, as i won;t have enough money saved up for a Wii and the Wii version until after Christmas.
  23. I've still got a couple of games i'm working through on my GC, which include Metroid Prime 2 and Timespliiters: Future Perfect (i'm doing both on the hardest mode available), so my GC still has plenty of life left in it yet. There is only one game i want for the GC atm which is Twilight Princess (due to my budget i can't get a Wii or the Wii version of the game till after Christmas)
  24. I'm probably gonna get it on Launch, or if not within a month or two after Launch in Europe.
  25. I don't see why people compare all three 3D Zelda games, each one is slightly better than the one before it in my opinion. Ocarina of Time introduced us to the Happy Mask shop and the mask trading which allowed us to wear masks to look like other tribes and it introduced us to Epona and songs that could transport us to Temple entrances as well as control day and night and conjour up storms if required. Ocarina of Time also gave us practice in stealth in and around Hyrule Castle and Gerudo Valley and gave us mini-games and side quests to distract us from the main story Majoras Mask improved upon this by allowing us to collect many masks, some of which had unique powers like controlling animals with song and others giving us the ability to transform into Zoras or Gorons. Epona was available much earlier in the game than in Ocarina and one song allowed us to travel to Town, Region or Temple entrances. Majoras Mask improved the stealth by using a vast area like Gerudo Fortress as a great place to sneak around as well as hiding from thieves. Majoras Mask also gave us even more mini-games and side quests than Ocarina did and it improved these as well by either making them harder or spreading them out over three days to make them more interesting. Wind Waker improved this further, even with one mask in the game, we could see the enemy health and see how much it had left. Transport was available earlier still with the introduction of the King of Red Lions, and more songs that allowed us to control the Wind were introduced. The sneaking around factor was brought back in the Forsaken Fortress and was also used on Windfall. Wind Waker also had it's fair dose of mini-games and side quests, which would make the game last longer and distract you from the main quest e.g. the Triforce quest So in my opinion, each of the three 3D Zelda games is slightly better in some ways than the one before it. Ocarina of Time set the foundations, Majoras Mask and Wind Waker built up on the foundations
