Thats a bad deal. I'd say HMV will be selling a MGS4 bundle for 399 next week.

I'd much rather widespread scoreless reviews at this stage. It'd rule out the bribery, review embargos and discussions like that eurogamer one. This review score business is getting out of hand.

They won't ever stop scoring, because it drives traffic and ad revenue - Eurogamer don't give a toss if their forums are junked up with subjective objective jizz/score paradigm clarifications.

Cheers, will hold on for that then. Just spotted GT5 Prologue + Console for €399 in Xtravision, but I'd rather have a go of MGS4.

GTA one is €399 in Tesco.

I'm tempted to hang on for a bundle with a Dual Shock 3 included, but that could be months away.

What do you reckon to GRID then lefty?

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

I really like it. Loads of stuff to do in it; drifting, destruction derby, night racing.

Controlling the replays is great fun too and the flashback yoke is a great idea.

Its a lot more accessible and fun than GT5p which is only really good for tt's in all honesty.

 

[Stan Bowles]

Yeah I much prefer it to GT5p, probably due to the fact that I suck at GT5p.

Some of the American city tracks are great fun to drive round.

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

The san fran track is great. I also like the drift one around the docks.

The 24 hour le mans race is brilliant. Really hard but the first time i've ever seen the sun set and rise during a race.

GTA Academy up and running:

[Lefty Frizzell]

^ I had a bash at that GT Academy. Bitch hard.

 

[CitySickness]

So who's getting MGS4 tomorrow, then?

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

I'm really looking forward to it now.

 

[Stan Bowles]

Still waiting for a free copy.

I'm still not bothered so I can wait.

Looks like they're clearing out SixAxis stocks:

... which means that European Dualshock 3 console bundles can't be that far away. Maybe.

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

I wouldn't have thought the dualshock or lack of it would exactly be a deal breaker. You'll only get one sixaxis with the hmv bundle and a dualshock from vg+ or ebay is around 35 euro delivered.

 

[CitySickness]

If a DualShock bundle is just around the corner (maybe with a price drop and/or larger HD) I might as well hang on for that. I just found the Sixaxis to be a bit gash whenever I've used it, so it'll just end up gathering dust in my console graveyard.

 

[Lefty Frizzell]

The dualshock is just a bit heavier and has rumble.

I've modded mine with these triggers which helps.

The crappy, cramp-inducing pad is probably my biggest gripe with the PS3. I played GRID for about 45 minutes last night, then I had to stop and turn it off as my hands were hurting so much.
