If anyone's still after one of these, Comet (sorry if they're a competitor) have the Joytech ones in stock. Ordered one yesterday, estimated delivery Tuesday.

Cheers for the heads up, wonder if the stores will have them too, ill pop over to my local one tomorrow just in case.

EDIT: They also have Core packs in with PGR3.

These not classed as a competitor?

Bonjour · 22 Jan 2006 at 14:41

I did a search and found a few other threads mentioning them so I guessed not.

LoadsaMoney · 22 Jan 2006 at 15:22

Well i popped into my local store, and the guy said if its on the website then we can order it in for a store pickup for you if we aint got them in stock, so thats what ive done, going to pick it up in a couple of days, once again thanks for the heads up.

Yeah i think they are ok as ive seen them mentioned quite a bit to.

DaveyD · 22 Jan 2006 at 15:38

They mustn't sell enough stuff then, ah well

LoadsaMoney · 22 Jan 2006 at 16:35

Yeah, it was even mentioned in the big thread about no competitor hinting by Orifice, so they are ok.

whats the benefit to having an advanced scart?

LoadsaMoney · 22 Jan 2006 at 16:53

Gives you a much better picture than the normal comp to scart that you get with the console.

Bonjour · 22 Jan 2006 at 16:53

RGB / S-Video signal and digital sound.

It's mainly of benefit to the SDTV crowd.

FeFiDoh · 22 Jan 2006 at 17:05

which *** be me so probs worth me getting 1 then

cheers

Bonjour · 22 Jan 2006 at 17:07

Definately. If your TV takes an RGB signal then you'll notice a distinct improvement in picture quality.

Does anyone think that the Core bundle on the comet site is good value? Or will i severely miss the HD? I have no HD-TV as yet just a 21" Sony TV.

Cool thats great to hear.

Closer inspection that doesn't look good value at all, as you get the memory card with the core pack anyway i think, so £100 for PGR3, they must be joking. :eek:

FeFiDoh · 22 Jan 2006 at 17:38

comes with a wiress controller so im guessing thats 1 wired and 1 wireless and the game?

LoadsaMoney · 22 Jan 2006 at 17:42

Ah yes could be, also you don't get the memory card in the core, so looks like you get the extra wireless pad, PGR3, and the memory card for the extra £100, not to bad at all then, as PGR3 is about £45, memory cards about £25, and the wireless pads about £32 to, so it does look good.

Bonjour · 22 Jan 2006 at 17:57

The deal's actually quite good. You don't get a memory card with the core and is pretty much essential, as is a second pad for multiplayer.

LoadsaMoney · 22 Jan 2006 at 18:41

Yeah definately worth getting as your getting a top game to in PGR3, some of the bundles have about 4 or 5 games and theres only about 1 decent one amongst them as the rest are pretty poor.
