    I don't think so looking at this now. Could have chosen Dick Tracy weeks ago now...maybe...sort of...ish. :(

    I find your statement comforting and interseting. Thnaks. Here, have a BANDI Wonteswan. :)

    Hmm! I'm going to have a think about this! Who to choose? Silver Burst Hawk? Bond? Vic Viper? Or a yellow blob with non-existent collision detection?

    I'll have a think through today and post later.

    Decisions decisions!

    Oh feck it!
    Stick me back on the list, I had thought I wouldn't be able to choose a game up to the standards around here... But then I saw Arkanoid and figured I was selling myself short!

    Playstation?
    CD32?
    .
    ..
    ...
    Atari Jaguar???

    You've just shown your ignorance at being one of those people that have yet to experience earthbound.

    Now now Retr0, lets face facts.
    You knew I was ignorant about videogames long before you knew I hadn't played Earthbound!

    And, yet, despite this obvious disconnect in my gaming prowess and knowledge, I'm still a mod here!?!
    I suppose the recruitment policy hereabouts is a copy of the one Game use for their staff! ;)

    Yes.

    No.

    Anyways, it'd be pointless picking an RPG, as it's only a week and you've all got lives and things. I'll probably pick something arcade-y, maybe with some sort of prize for highest score. Keep on the edge of your seats there, lads.

    Pick whatever you want, it's not a prerequisite to play the game, it's more for discussion of it.
