PS2 - Offers

[lanciachris]

having played one of the lame versions of gt2 on the weekend I feel I must buy a ps2 and gt3, and 4 when it comes out

The question is this. How good are ps2 offers likely to get in the runup to christmas?

Best offer ive found atm is 115 delivered with 2 controllers and 2 utterly poo games.

Guess theres no offers then! My current plan is to get one to reward myself if i manage to stick with 2 things for 2 weeks, and obviously onwards from there!

1. Going veggie.
2. Dont be a fat bastud. somehow ive managed to creep up from 11.5 stone to 13, and am looking distinctly tubby.

Just use GT3 to get fit - do an endurance race or something - then whenever you make a mistake (take a wide line/ knock into something - whatever you decide) punish yourself with a press up or twenty...?

Toys 'r' Us are offering PS2 with Burnout 3 'Takedown',1 x controller but also supplied with steering wheel & pedals set for a total of GBP £104!!!


consequently there's a £104 shaped hole in my current account

hehe, great suggestion. Trouble was I played gt2 at the weekend and found that after a couple of laps I was less interested in getting a decent line through the corner than managing the biggest powerslide i could in the most inappropriate cars ever seen an audi rs6 powerslide ??

How the fudge did you get their website to accept your payment details? its a terrible website and their payment side just doesnt work for me at all. Unable to validate payment details...

1. [Going veggie. ]
Where's the good in that?
Just makes you fart more!!!!

Not that ive noticed Im just fed up of being a being a hypocrite. I dont think its right for us to treat animals as we do, have thought it for some time but figured I was too fussy an eater to go veggie. Now i think im not that fussy anymore so giving it a go!

Ok then, when you crash into things - or set yourself a number of laps before you stop and do a few press ups/ sit ups/ whatever. Seriously helps to focus the mind - you either get fitter or become a better driver

New PS2 out B4 Xmas apparently the size of a paper backed book at the same price as now, may be worth a wait.
