Yer and see what Graphics card will fit and let me play MTW and Rome Total War.

ran AGV got some viruses and Q'ed them no probs at all on start up now ???? will see though ???

no problems at all now, must have been a virus. GRRrrrr

Unusual for a virus to kick in so early in the start-up, humus

Possibly a trojan horse that left something nasty behind. Glad AVG got rid of it, can't recommend that software highly enough

Try downloading Spybot Search+Destroy. This, and Adaware SE, should compliment AVG nicely

I leave the Firewall to you, personal taste, and all that. I've just uninstalled Sygate and installed ZoneAlarm. As I said, personal taste, nothing wrong with Sygate

I've had Zonealarm for a year or two.

spy bot download will do

I'd recommend this when the wellys have worn off

pooters a ok, and no hangeover or acid ? what's going on am i getting immune (still walked into a wall or three doing the pinball game )

Anyone know which ps2 game involves killing joyriders?

not had your car nicked by this s**m ?
Just got my 1st post sent to the c4 mods for the s*c*u*m comment

I'm still playing first Driver on PS1

Is that the one with the Sinclair C5 in?

Yes, I keep having to get out and wind the car up

Dad had two MG Metro's nicked one ended up in Lancaster, a few weeks later a gang of teens, from Lancaster, that just nick MG Metro's, to go to clubs were killed going to Harrogate ... such a shame

With all the 'good stuff 'out at the mo,whatsyour favourite.
Have to admit that SSX Tricky and Sunny Garcia are addictive Platinum stuff but I wouldn't mind trying Finest Hour? or Black Monday........

Quote from The Daughter, "We're getting a PS2 for Dads 40th Birthday present"

So I need suggestions for decent PS2 games, not the new stuff, I need to catch up!! Platinum games are probably more up my street

I've heard that PS2 will play PS1 games and make them look better than PS1??

SSX Tricky is a top snowboarding game which is very addictive and great fun for the family(good sountrack too,one or two implied swear words though).
A lot of titles have just gone platinum.MOH Frontline and Rising Sun are way cool,and a good 18+cert game is The Getaway.Tescos have a big selection and are doing 2 Platinum for £30 at the mo.

Thanks Owain

I don't have any of the MOH games on PC, so I'll have to start getting them on PS2. Are they FPS games? If so, how do they play on a console rather than mouse and keyboard?

I've seen Call of Duty on X-Box, but not on PS2, although I think that's one game I'd prefer on PC.

Any decent racing (car and m'bike) games on PS2?

Been to a Computer Fair this morning, Daughter was playing Prince of Persia on a demo PS2, had to drag her off it

Also saw Halo 1 for £10 (PS2, used)

Just Google for P.S 2 reviews,there are loads of dedicated sites that are a mine of info on what to buy...and more importantly what not to.
MOH has a choice of two ways to set up an analogue game pad,both very easy to control.
If youve never played MOH with a pad capable of vibration feedback your in for a treat.
Try the games on hire at your local video shop before you buy from new by the way.

I've bought second hand PC games from Blockbuster before, but never hired games. I'll give it a try after Christmas

I've got a Thrustmaster feedback gamepad for the PC, but that's not as good as the PS1 gamepad. Hope the PS2 feedback pad is as good as the PS1

Got Rome: Total War when it came out...and it's dead cool, IMO.
Some of the accents are a bit dodgy when it comes to mercenaries and the Gauls, Britons, etc...but I like it - especially when I've got loads of archers and send an arrow storm raining down on Gallic Naked Warriors (Germanic Screeching Women is good, too...).

Just completed it as the Julii, and already feel the need to start again!

Choices video are now doing the 2 for £30 deal.

Damn The Getaway,its ruining my Christmas

Silent Hill 4

Ingeniously freaky...

Damn the Suez Canal

No PS2s to be had until end of January

Don't know how true it is, but the story I heard was that a container ship full of PS2s heading up the Suez Canal behind an oil tanker. The tanker gets grounded, container ship can't pass it or turn round (obviously!) So tens of thousands of PS2s stuck in the Suez Canal

Including MINE!!
