Why Don't You Own: R-Type Final?

There are few certainties in life; death, taxes, continual FIFA updates and the unceasing plunge of the videogame industry into the murky waters of pop culture, homogenisation and inevitable mediocrity. Unfortunately, it's this very plunge that will affect the future of games such as R-Type: Final so badly. If, indeed, it hasn't already.

The Perfect 10 Car Garage...

Let's face it, we've all done the 'Dream Garage' thing. You know, "if money was no object, what cars would you buy for your dream garage?" Well, as some of you may know, I'm something of a car fan/junkie/enthusiast/nut/bore/whatever. A dyed in the wool petrolhead. So my list runs to, literally, dozens of cars. But I got thinking, which ones would I choose if I only had room for 10 cars from automotive history? There'd be no point getting anything truly old and rare, because with limited garage space I want to be able to regularly drive everything in there (so no old Bentleys or Mercs, sadly). Same for 4x4s as I never venture off-road (sorry Land Rover fans). Have a read of the conclusions I came to, and let me know what you'd choose in your 10 car garage. I reckon it's an interesting view into someone's personality...
