Fight Night is great for a while, but then it becomes too samey and you're just fighting for the sake of it. SvR is obviously good for that price, but again, it gets boring fast. They are both great fun on multi-player mind and you can have some great matches on FN if both players are of similar ability.

**Haribo** · 30-07-2007, 22:34

There are many flaws with SvR 2007. I'd really recommend waiting a couple of months until the 2008 version is out. Although if you're not really bothered about the out of date roster or the fact that Gregory Helms can't suplex Matt Hardy due to the weight difference then by all means get it.

Good game, but can get frustrating.

I'm not really much of a wrestling fan anymore, but I still enjoy the games. I'll probably get it anyway, because I wouldn't be willing to spend £40 on the 2008 game.

They are both good games, but fight night gets repetitive once you've got all the achievements (just completing the carear) and it gets boring after that really.

Smackdown Vs Raw is a great buy at £12, I got it for £20 a while back and its still as fun as before. Also I'm not a wrestling fan either. All I say is you should get smackdown vs raw, and if you would enjoy fight night (try the demo out) then get that, once you get bored you could always sell it on ebay as well, recently they've been selling for about £18!

I spent 800 points on Bomberman and it aint what it used to be

Same when I spent 800 on Worms.

Basically the Arcade games are heavily watered down so be careful.

I need a new game, I shall trade Overlord today and see what is about.

**Dan** · 31-07-2007, 12:37

Hopefully Sensible Soccer is different. It's out on the 29th August 2007, I should have my new x-box by then.

I'd never buy an Arcade game really, because you can just play them on the PC for free to be fair. Plus it's a bit pointless paying for these games in my opininon, I'd only ever play the Arcade games if I'm only on for a few minutes or if I'm waiting for a mate to come on so I can give him a game on Pro etc. Therefore a few minutes here and there doesn't really warrant about £5 from me, so I just stick with the Trials. Soon get bored of them anyway.

I bought Castlevania SOTN from the arcade considering it was actually a full game, but that's it. I was thinking about getting Bomberman due to the lure of online play, but probably won't now.

Can you play these games on the PC and chat with mates like? If so I have been robbed but yes I do often just get the demos but Worms and Bomberman are effing classics. I bought them and they both are OK but not as good as remembered. Having said this I did buy 3D Ultra mini golf and that is a class laugh with mates. It is like Crazy Golf but you get Power ups and stuff to put people off. Top fun, best Arcade game yet.

It is fun online with mates but unless you have the spare pointage I would not bother.

Aye, agree with greenegg worms was really shit, never played it against after I got all achievements. Dan, senisible soccer they say that it is the full game, the exact as the 97 version. You can play it exact same as 97, or one in HD with improved audio, you get to choose. But both use the exact engine and code of the original, so that should be worth ago. Got to say Worms is the only arcade game I've bought so far and was shit, aswell as the free hexic game that comes with the console which is pish. Was considering sonic, after all I think it saw it for 400MS?

Not many good games to get atm, but bioshock sounds good, I think its out in 3 weeks or so. Then theres Halo 3, GTA 4, Call of dut 4, PGR4, Pro Evo 7.

Gony have to get by with Gears, GRAW2 and Forza for the time being.

Not bad...

Doubt I'll be buying though.

**greenegg** · 01-08-2007, 18:02

I will purchase the best Halo version they release. That helmet to wear for fun will be ace.
