[XBOX] Terminator 3: The Redemption has Arrived!!

Hi gamers and collectors!

Welcome back to yet another addition to my XBOX collection, and here I have Terminator 3: The Redemption. This was another title I managed to find during the hunt earlier this week. It's safe to say this is a title I haven't seen around, it's not an expensive title but sure is uncommon.

I popped this one in, and played a bit of it to test. I found that I started to get hooked into it, first off straight away I heard Arnold Schwarzenegger's voice is used! About a few minutes into the introduction you're straight into gameplay, you can mount any machine and take control of it and shootdown any Terminator that's in front of you. There's targets all over which it's very difficult to aim at, I think with a little bit of practise it'd be a great game. Seems like Atari didn't drop the ball on this one, unlike Micro Machines I posted about earlier. I'm not sure if it's super repetitive though, that's something I'll have to find out later on.

Now to the condition, it's fair to say it's acceptable. Manual is pretty good, along with the DVD-ROM.

More games to come during the week, see you there!

[XBOX] Micro Machines has Arrived!

Hi gamers and collectors!

Welcome back to yet another addition to my XBOX collection, and here I have Micro Machines. This is a fairly uncommon title for the XBOX, and it's surely one of the Micro Machines games I haven't played. I was a major fan of Micro Machines V3 Turbo on the Nintendo 64, and Micro Machines V3 on the Playstation. However, one red logo made that fun end, ATARI. Now I'm not one to hate on Atari, but this isn't very good at all. Very limited and not as enticing as V3 or any others by Codemasters. I guess different publisher, different gameplay. I should add that stepping on MicroMachines is just as painful as Lego.

Atari did a great job with Driv3r, why not Micro Machines? The overall game play to this just isn't there, it might be enjoyable to the very young, but for me it's just a no-go. There's something missing, and for little toy cars the physics is quite detailed... It really doesn't need to be. Ahhh, that's what's missing, simplicity.

I managed to pick this one up for $9, this title usually heads up to $25-$30 in auctions. With what I said above, $30 would of been hurtful. Glad I own it none-the-less as it's fairly uncommon and expensive (for XBOX). Condition is what you'd expect from a boring game... Like new.

That's enough rambling for me, more stuff to come. See you there.
