^Nah, been after it for eons...at a quid or less, that is! ;)

It's not very good, really, is it? Always been curious about the 'battle damage' - now I've played it for half an hour or so, not sure my curiosity is powerful enough to persist...

I just found it really alike. The controls, the boost... the track layouts seem quite similar as does the graphical style. The weapon system is new, though, as is the career mode so it does have some ideas of its own.

I should add that I really like F-Zero so I'm complementing the game by making the comparison!

Well I have been thinking about a second 360 for some link gaming for a while and I was in Tesco tonight. The most expensive impulse buy I have ever made. A limited edition star wars xbox 360 console pack :D

I bought a copy of Pac Man Party in 3DS, it was only a tenner on ShopTo and I've been looking for multi-player games I can play with my little brother. This one is supposedly 1 cart play so I should get my money's worth!

It's a good solid release. Yes it's also Download Play compatible!
The Wii version is good in multiplayer too, surprisingly.

Capcom Classics Remixed - PSP. For Varth on the go, been seeing this game for months for around £4-£5 but when I want a copy I've really got to search to find it at that price!!
