Play.com

Standard edition- £7.95
Special 2 disc edition- £5.19
Ultimate Collectors 4-disc edition £14.49

AND, can someone tell me how to create hyperlinks on the forum? I've tried a=href etc. and it didn't work. While I think about it, I'm off to see if HTML is enabled in my profile.

I hate Titanic just cos it seems to be the moment Cameron realised that once you got women into the cinema to watch soppyness, you'd get stratospheric profits and it wouldn't matter if the film was any good or not :(

I'm assuming it's some sort of publishing rights issue? I made a small fortune on a copy of Scarface once :)

I tried turning one of the extra-long Play.com urls into a hyperlink and it didn't work, but I tried Google and it worked.

So I'll try Play once again
