Are we agreed on Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, then?

Which is why I mentioned not playing any next-gen stuff in my initial post? GOD! F*cking n00bs!

I was reaffirming, dick, since everyone was complaining about money issues. Go jump off a building and get your misery over with.

Since nobody has the balls to say it, I will.

Battletoads.

Sounds good! Everyone who wants to participate, throw your name in. Once we see how many people we've got, we'll decide how we're going to do this.

Well since so many people were into PoP, we'll go with that one. Easily accessible to anyone who owns a console in the last generation, easy to find and cheap to boot.

Maybe we'll do Battletoads another time. I have no doubt we'll be digging into some 8 and 16-bit games somewhere along the line.

PoP:SoT sounds great, so definitely count me in.

Question: Will PoP:SoT work on my 360 or will I have to get out my original X-Box?

It's BC, baby! That's why it's such a good choice.

I'll head to GameStop tomorrow.

EDIT: With BC games, I just pop it into the 360 and it does the rest?

Yes, indeed. I think PoP:SoT was one of the added ones, so you'll probably need to download the update for about 10 seconds. Other than that, you're good to go.

Great! Since the whole point of this is to play through (or replay in a lot of people's case) the game in its entirety, I have no reason to go dig out the brick.

I'm in, but I'll need to order it online so it'll be a few days before I get it. Anyone with a PAL PS2 can get the trilogy boxset for €15 off www.play.com.

What consoles is PoP:SoT on besides Xbox?

I'm down. I'll e able to go to EB tomorrow so hopefully it is there. This will also be a good way to build a library of good games that I missed.
