    I'd be turning the music off on that one!
    I must pick up the PS2 versions of Crazy Taxi and the sequel.
    Wasn't Crazy Taxi 3 Xbox only?

    I'd just stick with the DC versions TBH, I personally think it plays better then the PS2 or Gamecube versions.

    No, it also came out on PC.

    I know I have the original on the DC and I had the sequel along the way somewhere.
    Must take a look for it.

    I've tried to get out but I'm in too deep. Luckily the latest series is over so we've just been playing Mario 3D World instead...can I stay?

    Well done, fantastic news!
    A word of warning.
    Keep the little blighter away from your game controllers, I have a 360 controller that still bears the scars of thumbstick gnawing by my son while he was teething.

    Did you have to pay import duties on it or did you get away with it?

    Seriously though, congratulations!

    If it's any consolation the Battlefield 4 netcode is very much more optimised towards the casual player than the hardcore gamer. Means everybody gets a fair crack at killing someone but it can be a bit frustrating for the people who put a lot of time into it.

    Congrats on the boy get. It's a pretty attractive addon but requires too much maintenance for my taste.

    Don't bother keeping the receipt for the child, I once called into the Coombe to see a new addition to the family, I popped my then 1 year old on the reception counter and sled for the returns department.... Frosty is one way to describe the response....

    The daily requirement to download their constant DLC would put me off...

    I emailed Richard Hutchinson the other day and he has a few Flashboy flashcarts for the VB, well worth picking one up, around €80 including shipping.
    There's a great homebrew community now, http://www.planetvb.com/modules/news/

    You should probably sell Waterworks, then with the money buy the rest of its good games.
    Most are fairly cheap

    The glue holding the ribbon cables feeding the screen goes hard and becomes loose.
    Just a case off popping the "screens" in the oven for 30sec and pressing them down like a mad yoke till it dries.
    15euro for the long gamebit driver from amazon :eek:

    TBH I'm not sure if I'll hang onto it.
    What do you reckon its worth as a set?

    So, now that I've had my fill of humble pie...I've officially joined the A&R Bartop Club

    Thanks to The Last Bandit, who went to the bother of making this for me. Way way way better than I could have ever hoped to do. I have the innards ready to go, just need a screen, an ipac, plexi & some controls/buttons :)

    Gotta love the resources people have in this place :)

    Bartop looks class. Have you picked a button/stick colour combo?
