[XBOX] V8 Supercars Australia 2 has Arrived!

Hi gamers and collectors!

Welcome back to yet another addition to my XBOX collection, and here I have V8 Supercars Australia 2. Right from the get go this is Race Driver or TOCA Race Driver as it's known in the UK, the title change was just a quick cash grab from the Australian gamers and an excuse to gain more popularity. I guess it must of sold well enough for 3 of these titles to come out, the new instalments of the series didn't make sense as they branched off into F1 and Rally I think... What!? They still carried the V8 Supercars title I tell you not.

In terms of gameplay it's pretty good, around the 128-bit generation Codemasters were fantastic at racing games, great attention to detail and what not, a great example would be Colin Mcrae Rally 3. With today's power of our systems, the detail only gets more involved, which we were shown in DiRT 2. Anyway I'm getting off-track here... I much rather prefer the V8 Supercars than 2, for reason that it stuck to the Supercars and not just a title swap oh and cover art like this one was. Other things were missing too, but I just can't quite tell...

In terms of condition, it's well looked after! Manual looks untouched and DVD is spotless. I could say the same thing for the case as well.

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

[XBOX] Colin McRae Rally 3 has Arrived!!

Hi gamers and collectors!

Welcome back. Later last week I headed down to another Cash Converters store to see what XBOX games they had, surprisingly enough after throwing 99% of the classic titles out the way I spotted CMR 3! I saw the price tag and shit... $4. Now on the world of eBay the only ones I can find are either without a manual or a classics version for $10!, yucky! So without a doubt I picked this one up. With a few others that just were not complete and some even had swapped discs, how about that?

Condition! Better than the rest I've seen and black label. What more could I ask for? Oh I almost forgot -- The manual and DVD are great condition =^^=.

This was the best rally game for the time, and to me it still is. Codemasters worked super hard on this one! The detail is great and I'm sure the hardware was pushed hard for the amount of detail it had. The game has great extras which included the making of, with some XDK and TOOL porn for collectors out there :P. Certainly if you haven't already, get it or grab a hold of this game, you'll know what I'm talking about.

More games to come, see you there!
