simonmhutchins Posted October 13, 2003 Share Posted October 13, 2003 When I saw the title of this thread I thought "mmmmm, this should be interesting" I was not disappointed - the "my ones bigger/faster/meaner than yours" was soon overtaken by "my brother's girlfriend's milkman knows someone who's going to order ........." Then comes the inverted snobbery of "I'm running MI2 on a Sinclair 48k" - all brilliant stuff I think we should stick to less controversial topics - how about XBOX rulez, PS2 is Crap and Gamecube is for kiddies - discuss :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just like this one - except without the inverted snobbery. Whoever said Star Wars fans were insecure? ¬ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
