what Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I'd love to enter the competition, but no point with an NTSC 360. It's a piece of history though. You might not be able to use it but there's no reason you can't keep it as a collectors item, which you can then sell in a few years time for a huge profit.

Sethos Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 I would never enter a competition with the intention to sell the price, what kinda mentality is that? For the Xbox itself, two cheap looking stickers mashed on top some horrible shiny paint? :laugh: piece of history ...

Yeah, maybe it's best if you didn't enter then. Whether you like it or not, owning something that only four other people in the whole world have is pretty special, particularly for something like GTA.

dipsylalapo Supervisor Posted April 17, 2008 Supervisor Share Posted April 17, 2008 Only 12 days left I seriously cant wait for this game, shame my exams start a couple of days later, means that I wont be able to play it properly till 5 weeks down the line. As to the whole 10/10, perfect thing. I just think that giving a game a score out of 10 is way to narrow, it only gives the the reviewer 11 choices (0-10), that they can score a game on, in my personal opinion a score based on the percentage scale would be more suffice (is that proper English), like Gamesmaster magazine in the UK or the system that GameSpot use. Maybe the reviewer actually thought the game was a 97% of 9.7 but because they had to choose between 9 or 10, I think that everyone would agree that 10 is more of a realistic score than a 9.

McSmiggins Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 (edited) Ahh who cares about who give it a 10? The only review that ever really matters anymore is that of the legend himself "Ben "Yahtzee" Corshaw" Seriously though he is the only guy that I can expect to give a review that I really want to listen to. He truly attempts to destroy the game and when he can't its a sign that the game stood its ground pretty well :D He is extremely tough but he is also fair, Yahtzee for president :p Think very carefully about where he is in the world..... (Edit: that's not to say it won't be a fair review of the game he plays) Edited April 17, 2008 by McSmiggins Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/623986-official-grand-theft-auto-iv/page/8/#findComment-589338848 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 BioShock received at least a dozen of 10's. It was an awesome game, but far from perfect. And that's a nice prize, acxz.
