Mr Aitken, What were you doing when she was driving the Honda? BB or should that be what were you doing when she was driving the GP3 car?

I thought I'd force my girlfriend to look at GP3 and GPL, and then get her reaction to both of them. Here's what she thought. GP3 GPL Sound 6/10 10/10 Graphics 7/10 9/10 FF 6/10 9/10 Physics 6/10 9/10 Overall 60% 95% Then I asked her: 1. Which was the easiest to drive? Julie: GP3 is really easy. 2. The most fun to drive? Julie: GPL...it feels more like I'm driving a race car. 3. GP3 cars all handle the same, unlike GPL, is that good or bad? Julie: Bad! What's the point of that then? Gerry: Geo...God knows! 4. GP3 has no online racing, are you surprised by that? Julie: Yes, that's stupid. Can you play it at your LAN things that you go to? Gerry: No. Julie: What a crap game, did you get it from EB? I'm going shopping with Denise tomorrow, would you like me to take it back? Gerry: I might want you to, yes. 5. Which one of the two do you think is the more advanced? Julie: GPL of course, then did GP3 come out then? Gerry: Yesterday. Julie: Really!! It's shit, why did you buy it? Gerry: I did no for sure that it was crap, so I got it to try. Julie: Can I go now? 6. Which would you buy? Julie: GPL, can I go now? Gerry: Yes pumpkin, thanks for your help. Julie: Can I have some money to go shopping with? Gerry: If I gave you money, some would say I paid you to agree with me. Julie: Is that a no then? Gerry: Yes. Julie: Yes, I can have some money? Gerry: No, sorry I'm skint. Julie: Hmm! If I take GP3 back I could have £20 of the refund. Gerry: £5. Julie: £15. Gerry: £10. Julie: Ok :0). Can you copy the Cd? Gerry: I'd never do that! So there you have it. I also looked at her face while she was driving, which said it all really. All smiles in the Honda of GPL and all scowls in the GP3 car.

<snip> Lol, your girlfriend should work at Gamespot, then the Gamespot review would have been a lot fairer (Gamespot gave it a 9.7. Honestly, GP3 is a good game, but a 9.7 is ridiculous!) Andre

WHAT? You've got to be kidding, if I had a girlfriend like that I'd have to fight with her to play GPL and I just couldn't do that. But then again, she would understand why I play it so much and not hassle me like my wife does. Vintook "HJ Ventura" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:4WJg5.504842$k22.2258298@flipper...

Don't be fooled guys, here's what the deal is about: --- XY: Honey <kiss>, do you feel like <kiss> going to bed early <kiss>? XX: I am so tired from all the work, I'm really not in the mood.
