Yes, yes I would.

It's one of the very few games I'd be willing to pay that much for, the others being Burning Rangers, Exhumed & Blade Runner.

You should never say it out loud (or post it on an internet forum) though. I gave people that advice when they were getting excited about Banjo Kazooie being released on XBLA (Sevenfisher that means you) saying they'd pay 1200points for it and look what happened.

BK is worth 1200ms points though.

Anyway, I hope that R* see sense & release GTA1 & 2 as soon as possible.

Nah, I just think it's going to be a special game. We'll see, I guess.

I never recall I'd said anything like that. :? (And you can just call me Seven :P ) But to be fair, I would be gladly to pay 1200 MS points for BK (I got it for free 8-) ) so you're pretty much right. Just I don't remember I'd said I would gladly to pay 1200 MS points for it.

That being said, I'll gladly to pay 3000 MS points just for Goldeneye 007 on XBLA. :shifty: *hopes this will attract MS/Rare to release it...if only.*

I happily paid 1200 MS points for Banjo-Kazooie, and I would buy an XBLA version of GTA2, despite already owning the PS and PC versions. Don't ask me why, I just would.

LittleBIGPlanet will be widely regarded as GoTY.
Gears 2 will be better than the first but fade in comparison to other realeases
New DS will be announced
COD5 will be weekly consecutive number 1.
PS3 80GB will be announced (still no BC)
LBP PSP announced


I'm good.

I didn't make any predictions, comically bad or otherwise?

...actually, now I think about it I probably didn't. I'm usually quite content to see what the future brings in it's own time.

I too would pay at least 1600MS points for a version of Burning Rangers took proper advantage of modern analogue sticks, and that didn't cause my eyes to bleed.

Especially if they were kind enough to include co-op.
