"But despite nearly 45 minutes of Queensland domination, New South Wales held strong, with neither side bothering the scoreboard in the first half." Don't you mean despite 40 minutes? Rugby League games are 80 minutes long, you know...
I agree with this sentiment. However, you forgot to mention MGS was released on PS1 (and possibly PC) in 1998 as well, and thats a great game if anything.
Good deal for those over the pond. For those complaining about a deal from M$ in U.S - take heart. You're getting it cheaper than anyone else, and you just had you're Platinum Hits announced as well.
