that aint gonna help, i have already as all my local video shops if they r gonna b getting the xbox and they all said they wont b getting it 4 at least a couple of months which as u could imagine deadset shattered me but i think i will live. hey where in melbourne r u from, im down on the mornington peninsular. thanx 4 the reply 2my other ? i will b out scouting all the targets i know, im gonna try and find out if E.B. has any of there stock in yet which is where i buy all my games and hardware from because if u dont like it u can return it within 7 days no matter what

EB has a 7 day return policy, so you can always get the one you think you'll prefer and return it if you are really that upset with it.

that is probably what i will end up doing i just thought that if i get pgr and it is good then iwill have to take it bak to find out what wreckless is like and if it is no good then i will have to take it bak and get the original game i got, (DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE)? i thought if i could get sum mail from people who have played it then it mite help me make up my mind. its a bit hard 4 us aussies 2 answer properly yet as none of us have probaly even played the games yet so i asked the question on another thread also

Well I'm not saying you should, but you could always get both then if you don't like one/both take them back. Or if you like them both keep 'em both :)

u have no idea how much i would love to but i have already spent about 1200 smackers on the xbox, and i pretty much dont have a dime left to spend on it (not 2 mention that my wife doesnt even know about it yet and when she does find out and she relises how much splash i have spent on it she will most likely cutoff my penut):eek:
