FPS? try Red Faction I or II and Medal of Honor series is pretty good (but some are quite short). you should also get Grand Theft Auto. start with GTA3, it's so cheap now, then move on to Vice City or even go straight to San Andreas.

Vice city is most definitely the best of the three later GTAs. San Andreas just didn't do it for me. The ghetto vibe and the dull colours made it hard to focus for me. Whilst I tried to play Vice City through to 100%.

I didn't really like FFX-2, thought FFX was much better, especially if you tried to max out things like the monster arena and the dark aeons.

I have quite a few PS2 games and most find themselves played for a few hours and then tossed to the side, the exceptions that get played to the end have been:

Final Fantasy X

Devil May Cry 3

Gran Turismo 3 and 4

Grand Theft Auto: Vice City

SSX 1,2,3

Metal Gear Solid 2 - Really not a fan of 3. The jungle environ sucks big time and its too hard to see guards.

I have not come across a good FPS on PS2. FPS more designed for a pc imo.

I thought Metal Gear Solid 3 rocked! FF-X is definetely more challenging than FF-X2 in my opinion. What about Timesplitters 2 as a good FPS? I know the single player is kinda lame but the multiplayer is good value! I've spent soooo many hours on that game in 4 players (yes I did actually buy a PS2 multi tap!) and making your own levels is just the icing on the cake. I'm personally a fan of the Silent Hill series as well.

Giddey up for Tekken Tag! Even tho that game is ancient now, I can still remember many an epic battle with that game. Tekken 5 is looking really good, a real return to form. Plus it comes with arcade perfect versions of Tekkens 1, 2 and 3! Is Street Racing Syndicate good is it? I've seen it in the shops but haven't heard much about it.

I wouldnt be saying this if it was any other Final Fantasy but, give another RPG a go like:

Star Ocean 3

Suikoden 4

Xenosaga 1 or 2

Shadow Hearts

Shadow Hearts Covenant (part 2)

Having said that i bet that Final Fantasy 12 will be the best FF and my favourite game of all time. Sorry i just think X (10) was the worst of 7 Final fantasy games ive played, but it still rocks! There are just better RPgs out there.

We rented "The Punisher"

It was quite violent.

You get to torture people n stuff.

If you're not sure if you want to buy a game, go hire it first.

It's worth paying the $4 or $5 so you can take it home and have a decent play with it.

It's too hard to try and get the hang of games in store.

If you like it, buy it.... if you don't like it, then you haven't wasted $50+

    • Who did you have do the installation? I actually know someone who is VERY familiar with the AVS gear. The main point of contact though would be your installer.   Where are you based in NZ?
    • Look, realistically, those are some fairly chunky connectors and wires so it is a reasonably fair bet that that loom was involved in the redirection of the fuel pump and/or ECU/ignition power for the immobiliser. It's also fair to be that the new immobiliser is essentially the same thing as the old one, and so it probably needs the same stuff done to make it do what it has to do. Given that you are talking about a car that no-one else here is familiar with (I mean your exact car) and an alarm that I've never heard of before and so probably not many others are familiar with, and that some wire monkey has been messing with it out of our sight, it seems reasonable that the wire monkey should be fixing this.
    • Wheel alignment immediately. Not "when I get around to it". And further to what Duncan said - you cannot just put camber arms on and shorten them. You will introduce bump steer far in excess of what the car had with stock arms. You need adjustable tension arms and they need to be shortened also. The simplest approach is to shorten them the same % as the stock ones. This will not be correct or optimal, but it will be better than any other guess. The correct way to set the lengths of both arms is to use a properly built/set up bump steer gauge and trial and error the adjustments until you hit the camber you need and want and have minimum bump steer in the range of motion that the wheel is expected to travel. And what Duncan said about toe is also very true. And you cannot change the camber arm without also affecting toe. So when you have adjustable arms on the back of a Skyline, the car either needs to go to a talented wheel aligner (not your local tyre shop dropout), or you need to be able to do this stuff yourself at home. Guess which approach I have taken? I have built my own gear for camber, toe and bump steer measurement and I do all this on the flattest bit of concrete I have, with some shims under the tyres on one side to level the car.
    • Thought I would get some advice from others on this situation.    Relevant info: R33 GTS25t Link G4x ECU Walbro 255LPH w/ OEM FP Relay (No relay mod) Scenario: I accidentally messed up my old AVS S5 (rev.1) at the start of the year and the cars been immobilised. Also the siren BBU has completely failed; so I decided to upgrade it.  I got a newer AVS S5 (rev.2?) installed on Friday. The guy removed the old one and its immobilisers. Tried to start it; the car cranks but doesnt start.  The new one was installed and all the alarm functions seem to be working as they should; still wouldn't start Went to bed; got up on Friday morning and decided to have a look into the no start problem. Found the car completely dead.  Charged the battery; plugged it back in and found the brake lights were stuck on.  Unplugging the brake pedal switch the lights turn off. Plug it back in and theyre stuck on again. I tested the switch (continuity test and resistance); all looks good (0-1kohm).  On talking to AVS; found its because of the rubber stopper on the brake pedal; sure enough the middle of it is missing so have ordered a new one. One of those wear items; which was confusing what was going on However when I try unplugging the STOP Light fuses (under the dash and under the hood) the brake light still stays on. Should those fuses not cut the brake light circuit?  I then checked the ECU; FP Speed Error.  Testing the pump again; I can hear the relay clicking every time I switch it to ON. I unplugged the pump and put the multimeter across the plug. No continuity; im seeing 0.6V (ECU signal?) and when it switches the relay I think its like 20mA or 200mA). Not seeing 12.4V / 7-9A. As far as I know; the Fuel Pump was wired through one of the immobiliser relays on the old alarm.  He pulled some thick gauged harness out with the old alarm wiring; which looks to me like it was to bridge connections into the immobilisers? Before it got immobilised it was running just fine.  Im at a loss to why the FP is getting no voltage; I thought maybe the FP was faulty (even though I havent even done 50km on the new pump) but no voltage at the harness plug.  Questions: Could it be he didnt reconnect the fuel pump when testing it after the old alarm removal (before installing the new alarm)?  Is this a case of bridging to the brake lights instead of the fuel pump circuit? It's a bit beyond me as I dont do a lot with electrical; so have tried my best to diagnose what I think seems to make sense.  Seeking advice if theres for sure an issue with the alarm install to get him back here; or if I do infact, need an auto electrician to diagnose it. 
    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
