Since you got gran turismo 4 i'm assuming you like driving
games. May want to try Burnout 3 or 4. They're not
diffcult like GT4, more arcade style.

The handling in GT4 isn't that much less realistic than
Burnout either :P

Seriously, GT is one of the most overrated franchises ever.
Once the novelty of racing your own car against a mate's,
round the nurburgring wears off and you look critically at
the way the cars handle, the gayness of the horrendously
outdated "glass tunnel" tracks, poor collision detection,
how unrealistic the car is when driving on gravel and just
how bloody boring career mode is, you'll realise it's not
much fun at all.

Burnout 3/4 is a much better game and now the latter is out,
burnout 3 should be available quite cheaply second hand. I
think even if you don't normally like videogames, you'll
enjoy crash mode.

I know you were into bikes a while back. If you still are,
get TT Superbikes, it's horribly unforgiving, yet easily the
most realistic bike simulation. The accuracy of the
recreation of the full manx track is breathtaking too.
Also, get Resident Evil 4.

Aside from racing games, get Resident Evil 4 when it comes
out. I was never that big a fan of the series until that
one, but it is a whole new direction and I'd say it probably
gets my vote for best story-led game of all time.

Will you buy RE4 on ps2, Ceri? I won't, because of exclusive
there are just few weapons etc, also the graphics won't be
very good as on GC. The only thing I'd like to play with it
is that Ada's missions game.

No, as good as it was on GC, I won't be buying it on PS2. I
didn't think much of operation Ada and by all accounts the
PS2 ada levels are not much different (although a lot
longer). As for new weapons, I've still not unlocked the
hand cannon, so I don't need them yet.

Roll on Resident Evil 5, eh?

I think you could also enjoy the others episodes on GC then,
like Resident Evil 0 and the splendid old remake (the first
episode on ps1) Resident Evil: Rebirth. The zombies are
nothing in comparison to Ganados, therefore I think you'll
kill them without problems :)

I've still not unlocked it too, it's really hard to get all
5 stars in all levels in the The Mercenearies...

About RE5, sure can't wait! I think I'll order it from
America like I done for RE4.

Yes, I had Resident Evil: Zero. It was, aside from Code
Veronica, the only one I really liked prior to 4.
