I've really lost my interest in PC Gaming... im not sure what it is.. whether its the community and fun of playing along side a mate on a couch a good casual game or what it is... but i think ill let my pc become what it becomes and just get the next console that comes along and just play that. dont quote me on this ... things might change lol  |

I used to be like that but then I grew older and learned about the advantages a pc has over a console and changed my mind. I will probably still buy an xbox 2 or the next playstation or whatever. But NEVER EVER anything nintendo!

Wellll, Xbox 2(whatever its called this week) and Playstation 3 aren't so far away. I won't be affording them on launch date, but I plan to get an xbox 2 eventually. I can't upgrade my computer so I don't really play new games on it nowadays... No HL2 for Kyle...which is my name btw, if anyone wondered... O0
and im off to bed, goodnight ausfx

I was in singapore on my way back from the UK on the first day that they were released and I saw them for sale in one of those airport shops There was never a shortage for the X-boxes so I think the most they ever were was ~$300. The PS2s were going for $1200-$1800 on Ebay for a little while, because there was a huge drought of them shipping here. There were also some kids in Japan who were mugging people for theirs. |

The blast from the past!

I felt almost the same...
But then I got a PS2 and GT3 and now I return to the PC with a new refreshed feeling, it helped me to feel true racing, now I can attack Underground even better, time to try the NFSU 2 demo today.
