I win my eBay case about the PSP! In only 8 minutes after it went to eBay's attention

Still weird how it disappeared from my transactions history yesterday, though.

Yeah, but will have to wait until the item is actually delivered before I have the funds in my account.

First time posting in this thread atleast, hi. So I was wondering and this is something that came to mind like right now as I am writing this but do you guys have games that are no longer available to download on specific platforms? I was watching some video of Turtles In Time Reshelled(game was trash but I like the boss theme) and got me to wonder about games that were taken down from digital storefronts from whatever platform they were on and well the unfortunate reality of digital gaming when you have things being gone for good whether it be licensing or something else so thats essentially my question and to start off this what I have off the top of my head:

Scott Pilgrim vs. World
Xmen Arcade
Simpsons Arcade
PT

I know there is more but I cant remember. Now the following I got through friends and if I delete these they are gone for good:

Turtles In Time Reshelled
TMNT 2 Arcade
UMK3 on 360
MK2(the first version that came out on PS3 in 2007 I believe)

Oh geez, just realized I've been playing PUBG on the Asian region for likely weeks, I don't know how long really.  It defaulted to that at some point since launch.  That explains laggy loot grabbing and such I've had and just put up with.  That easily triples my ping, which is still playable, but I'm basically playing at like 70% capacity lol  No more lag playing in North America lol

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure HD for the PlayStation. Do you mean things like that?

Am I the only one that got personal messages from the Donald Stafford guy about his weird auction thing?

I jokingly took part in that thread, and he has not messaged me.  So that's weird that he messaged you.

that just means you should play 3x better right?

Unfortunately being 3x better doesn't translate into wins all the time, but I'm actually getting more kills now that it feels like my shots are hitting properly and it's just nice to have less lag gathering gear.

Since last Thursday, my new game room/podcasting studio has been in the works.  It's coming along.
 
I had one of those Amish-style storage buildings delivered.  So far, I have electrical wiring, insulation, and sheetrock installed.
Tonight and tomorrow is mudding sheetrock.  I'm hoping to paint Thursday and maybe Friday.  Saturday is flooring.  Assuming I get done with flooring, trim is Sunday.  The electrician is coming next Monday to wire my breaker box hook my feeder line to my and meter. 

I'm busting my ass to get this done.  Assuming nothing goes wrong, I should be moving into it in a week.  I'm more than a little excited.

That sounds awesome!

I got a component cable for my PSP. Thought it would be awesome to play on the TV like the Game Boy Player.

Who designed this damn thing?! Did they want us to sit on top of our TV? I mean, TVs generally have the hook-ups in the back, but the cord is just long enough to wrap around the back and sit like right in front of the TV.

Ohhhh, right... I forgot about that... I guess I never noticed 'cause I hook mine up to a capture card that then plugs into my computer (so I play off the computer).

Now that I think about it, I assume they designed the cable initially so people could watch PSP movies on their tv with it (thus the proportion change of the displayed screen).

In any case, I'm glad you won that eBay dispute!

Very curious as to how much this is costing you.

I'm under $9k so far.  That's a 12'x32' building.  I've done all the work myself.  It's been a heck of a trip, but it'll be done soon.
If I had a good place to host pictures, I'd post them here when I'm done.
