why on earth would you trade in 8 PS2 games? You can sell them second hand (www.trademe.co.nz) and still get $30-$80 each for them if they're in reasonable nick..

76797 2002-09-06 02:22:00 True, X-Box, I think has those spec's. Apparently there's gonna be amod to make it play PC and possibly even PS2 Games, can't remember the URL for the source though! Linux on the X-Box, Bring it ON!
BTW, I still like the idea of PC Game-Play, It's here to stay, and won't be easily outdated by a competitor. I think of it like putting in the latest Mod Chip to play the best most recent games (Upgrading...)
I've still got the N64 somewhere. I should really look into the X Box or the likes.

76798 2002-09-06 02:42:00 went to EB the other day - trade in PSone and 12 games get a PS2 for $299

Saw PS2 and X-box there running similar games side by side and couldn't see much difference.

Me, I'm getting a PS2 when I can afford it (ie when it drops to $25 :D)

Applications for Scott's job should be left under the waste paper bin beside the lifts, PC World Towers, 246 Queen St.

Why did you need to ask that?

Superb, I'd like a job where I could surf and play games all day -- oh wait, I already do :)

76802 2002-09-06 03:06:00 Hey....I don't play games all day. ...I also take a break for lunch.

Besides, Chris wasn't serious about firing me...he's just upset about the continual thrashings he's been getting at Rallisport Challenge. Everyone at IDG feels sorry for him you know...

76803 2002-09-06 04:19:00 Buy the Linux kit for the PS/2. There will probably be emulators for Xbox games soon ... Graham L (2)
76804 2002-09-06 04:21:00 Actually, Scott, I've got a question for you:

Was your intention to do a photo shoot in Xtras dungeon is that were they threw you and you decided to be opportunistic? :D

And Big Ed: I'll take his job. I can eat icecream and play GTA3 just as well as anyone else. Cept I'll do it for free :D :^O
