I did indeed get DC Last Blade 2. Crap condition, but it works. Christ knows what has been spilled on the instructions, I don't think I want to know. I LOVE THIS GAME. It is a work of rare beauty. The burning house backdrop is now officially my favourite ever. Am going to spend a lot of time on this game.

God! Teddy Boy I used to play on that all the time when I was younger.

Interesting info on the GTA games there jakeway, gives me something else to hunt down.

I finally managed to track down taxi 2 for the dreamcast, and it arrived this morning

How much did you pay for Taxi 2?

[Jakeway]

hey.... did you get that Taxi 2 off ebay?
I was watching one but it ended a bit to late for me...

[Kaladron]

Oh jesus. My mate is a big fan of the Taxi films and he would love that. How does the game play?

I need a review now now now.

[MikeRox]

[Shez]

I payed ?28 for it, but would have been happy to go another 20 quid on top of that.

Smegaman's review is pretty accurate

It's just the French version of crazy taxi 2. Don't get too excited.

Same here. It was an incredibly simple and fun game. Slick and quick. Allways a game that seems to be ignored by everyone. It's still fun to play now.

Thanks for saying that as, for some stupid reason, I thought it was a french only version of crazy taxi which was released by Ubisoft. Having done a bit of digging there's nothing to support that and loads to say that it's a completely different game. So thanks for that. You learn something new every day. Is it a 3d racer though?

Back on topic:

This weekend retro wise I picked up:

My local gamestation has gone all lazy with their retro cart only games and everything they get is £1.99. Recently I have picked up yoshi's island, pilotwings for £2. Had a look in there on friday and while leaning my head to the side to read the scrawl on the top of the cart I saw a few NTSC-U games, nothing special.

The last game labeled £1.99 was called secre* of ****. A further inspection revealed a UK PAL cart only copy of secret of mana.

A trip to a different GS a couple of hours later contained a boxed one for £80.

Also picked up cosmic spacehead and fantastic dizzy carts for the game gear for £5 and monster rancher and legend of kartia for £8 the pair at game.
