I have Genma Onimusha for Xbox, pretty good game but I haven't played it much.

I don't have a PS2 or I'd be interested, sorry pee.

You have an XBox? What games are you looking for? I have Ninja Gaiden, Full Spectrum Warrior, Halo, etc.

I'm not looking for any at the moment as I have shitloads I haven't played much yet, but if you let me know what you're trying to shift I'll see if there are any which my video-game addicted kid would like.

Sure, man. However, most of the games I own have mature content in them, and I'm not sure if I'm allowed to sell them to your child (unless you yourself give me the Dunc seal of approval).

I don't want your kid to become another murderer, for video games are indeed the root of evil. (End of sarcasm.)

how does this work?

since the playstation 3 gaming system is coming out soon, does that mean that playstation 2 games will become obsolete?

i am thinking about buying the playstation2 system for my daughters for christmas, thinking that i can get a great deal on a bundled package, and also that the games will be on sale for the next few months.

No, not necessarily. When you have become a gaming gourmand for as long as I have, you'll realise that the graphics themselves do not make a video game fun or better then the "inferior" titles from an older games console.

The new consoles are not worth the investment, to be honest with you. So far, the likes of the XBox 360 has brought nothing new or exciting, as far as I'm concerned (first-person shooters, yawn...). I would wait for a couple of years and see if they'll bring any new innovative titles out for your children to play with.

but i was thinking about buying the playstation 2 (two).

Then buy it. I was making a point that just because a game has crappier graphics than the newer titles, it does not mean that it's less fun or obsolete.

[McGiver]

did the prices of the playstation (original) games and consoles go down when playstation2 (two) came out.

that is what i am hoping will happen now.

Apart from the rarer titles, yes they have.

[McGiver]

thanks.

now i just have to see if they have any good deals on black friday.  that is the day after thanksgiving (today is thanksgiving) when many retailers have a shitload of good deals, kicking off the x-mass shoping season.

On that note of today's games consoles... £50 for an XBox 360 game. WTF?
