I had Ecco, it was the very first game I ran through a surround system, Tom Bakers voice sounded superb, pity I was crap at it and constantly got lost! How could I have forgotten MSR, I recently e-mailed Bizarre Creations and asked them to release an updated version for the 360, MSR took about 6 months out of my life, it wasn't just a game it was an obsession!

Jet set radio future was one of the first games I got on my XBOX and although good it didn't have the charm of the Dreamcast version!

Gran Turissimo done that for me.... got to no 3 and though na... too hard.. missed the big 10 min track (neuronburg (sp!!) by 0.04 of a sec for a liecience and thought na... never again.

MSR was a bit of fun but hated losing Kodus points and so most of the night was spent waiting on it loading back in again!!

Maybe when I get more time, will get into it again.

Oh forgot <£20 off of eBay!! including postage!!!

Mate the easiest way of boosting your Kudo's was practice a timed run track and bet on beating it when you were certain that you could, preferably on the first lap and then for the remaining 2-3 laps pull handbrakes skids and suchlike, you'll get over a 1000 kudos per race like that and be able to open further chapters!

Might give that a go Chris.

Only problem is that I really am not any good at driving games... I use the other cars as brakes going round corners and MSR takes points off you for that Sad

Probibly just stick to games I can play... tiddlewinks anyone?? Go high tech and play minesweeper!!

I am a HUGE fan of the Gran Turismo series and I'm waiting for the PS3 to come down in price so I can add the newest version of the game to my collection.

I love driving games and I'm a bit of a petrol head, and of a lover of all things Ford, so it's only natural that I should love playing the Ford Racing games too.

I only bought my PS1 for Wipeout 2097 and ultimate Doom, I have GT3 and GT4 on my PS2, but both are blown away by PGR4 on the 360!

lol!

Chris that is why I bought a PS1.

Got to say I was miffed when I seen the US vertion of 2097... FX or something... they got soundgarden and rusty cage etc for tunes when we got that dance rubbish. The only track I could put up with was firestarter!! I so wanted the American vertion of that game.

Loved Vandel hearts on the PS1, to me that game beat FF7.. which was also played to death.

Can remember with GT doing the ovel in an Eskudo pike... 600kg, 900+ hp 30 min or so and a million in the bank. Used to do that while watching the football.... It was so boring a race and lol... having a beer at the same time!!

best driving game ever was and i think still is gp3 by Geof crammond,best first person shooter and fun to boot was DUKE NUKEM 3D along with its many addons,the gp3 i always played multiplayer with my mate next door we took it exremely seriously 1/10th of a second a lap being enough to win barring crashes Very Happy gp4 looked better but couldn't play full championships in multiplayer,and have alas now put gp3 to bed as we both now have vista and can't get to play it over the network anymore Crying or Very sad

I loved Duke Nukem on my Saturn as it was the politically incorrect version unlike the version on the N64, I keep hearing rumours of a sequal but alas it has never appeared.

Never felt comfortable playing games on my pc, especially FPS's, I always found the mouse/keyboard combination awkward.
