Have to say guys, I am addicted to Driving simulation games and GTA, Love them games. Wonder if they will release the new GTA when the PS3 comes out, cannot wait for this, Anyone have a date on when the final release date will be, I know they said Spring 06'

Paul191 · 22 Feb 2006, 23:16

i dont have a release date but i have also heard that it will be here by the end of spring. I'm also 100% certain a GTA game is in development so i cant wait until then.

Sony are still sticking by the end of March '06.
However, rumours abound that August is where the smart money is.

SuperLoafMan · 22 Feb 2006, 23:18

Really temped to buy the new TOCA Race Driver 3 when it is released on Friday, Anyone heard anything on this game, (If people like this sort of thing)

I agree with you Paul. I love the Final Fantasy games. Even the ones for the PS1 are great...

Paul191 · 22 Feb 2006, 23:21

Oh yeh, i'm an avid FF fan. I love them all but my favourite has to be FF10. I was addicted to that for half a year! no joke. Thats half a year of my life wasted. But then again i did unlock everything..... which took me about 350hours!!!!

They are so long..

But really addictive and well worth there value, without a doubt.

Did you ever play Age of Empires for the PC. Another classic..

Paul191 · 22 Feb 2006, 23:25

oh yeh, there'll be so much talk that there wont be room on this thread, lol. I managed to complete san andreas 100% yet was quite disappointed by the fact that you didn't even need to do the rampages and unique jumps etc..

oh cool, could you dig them up for us please so we can look at them. I only joined 3 months ago so i havn't been able to find them ,lol.

SuperLoafMan · 22 Feb 2006, 23:28

Oh Right R...cool

Still have not completed it yet 100%...In the 90's But I hated the little RC Planes,

Although I hope this one is a more up to date game, although the older years were ok.

R. · 22 Feb 2006, 23:30

Dunno, search for "Vice City" "modding" , ...

AndrewG · 22 Feb 2006, 23:33

Quite into Fifa 2005 right now. Scun - t- horpe United will be thrasing Chelsea in the few days on my tv!

It's incredible how cheap games our nowadays. I remember the days of when the SNES was the thing to have and if you did not have Street Fighter 2 (whopping 60 quid!) you felt rather uncool at school. I don't agree with the hefty xbox 360 prices, althought the computer is really cool. Fair enough the hardware is incredible (better bus speeds /ram speeds than most pcs in fact) but it's ridiculous asking £50+ for games these days. I just bought 4 excellent ps2 games for 20 quid. Been playing Fifa and not even opened the other three!

Yeah i agree, that is a ridiculous price, lets hope ps3 prices are cheaper. Ahhhh i remeber when i was younger in the good old days playing on street fighter 2 turbo on the snes. That was awesome. It's such ashame that nintendo have gone downhill since then...

R. · 22 Feb 2006, 23:39

For the really good old stuff, go here!

Steve6 · 22 Feb 2006, 23:40

What did you guys think of the SEGA MEGA DRIVE?

What was the first computer console to be released? Was it the Commodore?

Paul191 · 22 Feb 2006, 23:41

oh, i loved the sega, i was addicted to sonic 2 when i was a little younger. Still an awesome game to this day i think. And i don't have a clue about the first console to be released,lol

AndrewG · 22 Feb 2006, 23:42

Yeah I think Nintendo hasn't really kept up with the big hardware guys myself. Though games like Metroid Prime are pretty damn awesome and very atmospheric. I remember Nintendo having a chance in 93/94 to co-develop the playstation with Sony. I would think they regret not taking advantage of that opportunity. Having said that I think Nintendo have invested a lot of research into the Revolution and apparantly the new style controllers are getting an enormous early appraisal from what I've heard. It's just a shame it always seems to take them ages to release anything. Been waiting on the new Mario handheld game for like a year now! Ridicilous.

Chris · 22 Feb 2006, 23:43

I have to admit it - i still take the GaneGear when going on long train journeys!
*hangs head in shame*

AndrewG · 22 Feb 2006, 23:43

Yeah Sega Mega drive was cool also. Altered Beast was excellent. Even that crazy Michael Jackson Moonwalker game was classic, though I thought it got a bit frustrating after a while!

I think nintendo can do it if they really put there mind to it. They just keep making the wrong decisions. The thing with nintendo is that they try to make games and consoles affordable for the general public which is fair enough, but unfortunately doesn't work nowadays. This is because if they want a super console they really need to get spending and this would make the console even more expensive. Even the revolution (there newest console in development) is said to have worse graphics than x-box 360, which is my opinion wont get them anywhere.
