Vib-Ribbon - currently there is a potential BLACK MARKET SWAP going on in trendy London town with Vib-Ribbon swapsies for Pokémon Snap and accompanying N64.
AND SOON I SHALL BE ENTERING THE REALM OF PS2!!! I won't be getting Timesplitters though, that's too bloody difficult! I just can't get the hang of Doom style perspective. I shout "where am I how do I turn round where are you" "I am standing behind you" "oh hang on a bit whilst I try to turn round, oh no I am stuck against a well" - you don't have that kind of nonsense with Chuckie Egg.
I just finished the Pokémon trading card game btw, it certainly didn't take me very long and I wouldn't have said that my deck was invincible.

I loved it too, but my Amiga owning friend used to moan about the star player system, and the fact that you could just press the 'shoot' button and it would do the goalscoring for you. I agreed that it was more satisfying to score on the Amiga. You had to work every angle.
My other favourite games:
Spectrum: Manic Miner & Jet Set Willy, Match Point (still fantastically playable, with great intuitive controls), Gauntlet (spectacularly quick and always underrated. I've got the emulated arcade version on my PC now, as well as the Spectrum one, and its the latter that is most fun to play).
Megadrive: Sonic 1 & 2, the Shinobi games, NHL hockey.
Playstation 2: I just bought one of these a week ago - continuing my habit of buying the populist platform over the more technically advanced one (Spectrum vs C64; Megadrive vs SNES; PS2 vs X-box and Gamecube). Only have two games so far. This is Football 2003, which I bought because I love football games and didn't want to get Pro Evolution now when the sequel is coming out in a couple of weeks. It's decent if simplistic game, but I'm still aware when I'm playing it that I would have wet my pants when I was 9 to know I would one day have games that were this much more advanced than Match Day. The other game I have is Gran Turismo 3, which knocks me out. The graphics are pretty much indistinguishable from TV. Last Tuesday, I'm ashamed to say, I played it for 17 hours straight.
