Question

I bought Halo and Sega GT Rally yesterday but am at a loss where to go from here. I like FPS but dont want to over do it!

Is Mirras BMX 2 any good? I've seen it for a bargain price!

I consider my collection to be of 'quite good games' (all bar 1 have been rated ELITE by Official XBOX Mag, and other mags as well!)
Halo
Sega GT 2002
Moto GP
Dead Or Alive 3
Oddworld: Munche's Oddysee
Rallysport Challenge
Project Gotham Racing
Amped
Splinter Cell
Mechassault
Blinx the Time Sweeper

A little bit of everything.

Is it me?

Ive got splinter cell but got bored before completing the assault course!
I have never played it since!
Should I give it a chance? I like games you just get straight into, none of this jumping around rubbish!

Dave Mirra is ok, gets very boring, I've also got Matt Hoffman BMX, again, ok but boring.

The tasks are cr4p, like knocking over ladders etc, it's better when you put the cheat mode on and you can go on any track.

2 player Matt Hoffman with the split screen is cool.

Rocky is a good game in 2 player mode, gets dull 1 player though.

Maxed out a 206 on Sega GT, and can win any race and any drag too - is this normal? I thought the game would be a *little* harder than this!!

Spec:
Peugeot 206 2.0
Turbo with Stage2 Turbine and Intercooler
Short Gear Kit
Polished Ports
Sports Tyres
Stage 3 weight reduction
Semi sports suspension
Chipped

Any comments?

I maxed out the Toyota Levin (corolla) at the start, went like the proverbial bong off the start line.
I think the game could have benefitted from some more european cars (like the PS GT series of games), make it more open to UK gamers.
I will say this, The action replay's are awesome !!!

Give it a chance, maybe it'll grow on you, maybe it wont - like any game.
I find it really good, if a trifle hard in some places (then again, you need a challenge)

Had a funny thing the other day, a guy in Game trying to get me interested in the XBOX Live kit, I listened to his sales pitch for 5 mins, then responded by saying I've had one since the beginning of December. Look on his face = priceless!
