Just picked up a CIB copy of Lost in Shadow (Wii) for $7 based on Turf's recommendation.

I didn't finish it , but I really like the concept of that game. $7 is a good price too.

Wow, how exactly do you remember all of the games you have when you're out? I feel like I'd end up buying stuff I already have at least once or twice if I had that much stuff.

I don't have 9000 but almost 4000 items and I use a collecting website to track it all. If I think of the name I will post a link

I see what you did there. Though that option doesn't really work well for people who don't have data plans on their phones.

Got my Drakengard III OST in the mail today!

Can't wait until I have some time to listen to it later...

Shout-out to Greg for his help in submitting this item/info for me

So I did something really stupid and wound up putting the Drakengard 3 Collector's Edition on my credit card. Feeling so guilty now, but I love the game!

What are those CE's going for now, Erik?

Also:

Don't feel TOO bad, because:

A).  (If you're not going to be getting the "offical" Drakengard 3" OST like I did) ==> you will also be getting 7 *Awesome* tracks of music as a part of your CE (I'm, personally very partial to track #6 -and- atm, can't get that song/beat out of my head:),

B).  that 160 page, hardcover 'Novella'/"prequel" book that you'll be getting was, (IMO) very well done + had some superbly done P.O.V. story-telling -and- (on a bit more of a selfish note:) I'll now have someone else here too talk to about that story/book  ,

C).  not sure how important/meaningful any of it is to you -but- you'll also be getting a bunch of DLC content, and (lastly & most importantly)

D).  it's done.  Enjoy it!

*Additionally*, since you'll now own both the vanilla game & the CE...you can always re-sell one or the other later on to recoup some of your expenditure

I bought Bomberman World for PS1, House of the Dead 2&3 Return for Wii and DDR Mario Mix w/Pad for Gamecube today!

[pacpix]

So I was at my local Hastings store about to walk up to the cash register to buy some books when I noticed a new section titled retro gaming! It was only about 10-15 overpriced commons for NES, SNES, N64, Gen, and some SMS games, but I did grab a copy of Marble Madness for NES for $3.99.  They also had USB retro gaming controllers. I asked the person at the register when they started selling retro games and he was just as confused as I was since they do not even accept PS2 games anymore ha. I also picked up an old rental copy of Pac-Man and Galaga Dimensions for $10.

[kamikazekeeg]

Today didn't turn out to bad.  My favorite thrift shop came through again.

I got a complete Sega Genesis Model 1 with two controllers and the cords of course along with a copy of a game called Shining Force.  It mostly works, I got it to work on one game, but I realized that I probably need to clean the system and Genesis carts I have, but I should now have a functioning Genesis since for abit now I've only had a model 2 that is missing the cords.

As for games I got a couple PC titles like Battlefield 2 Special Edition which comes with Special Forces.  A huge fan of the series and I want to collect them all, including some alternate versions.  With that I got Blade Runner, Return to Castle Wolfenstein, Call of Duty 1, and Deus Ex 1.  On console I got Crash Bandicoot 2 and Crash Bandicoot Warped though I only needed Warped for my collection.

*EDIT*
System sorta seems to work, the quality is rather crappy, of which I'm guessing the RF out might not be very good, perhaps better with an AV out instead? I just need to get another one.  also very questionable controllers, but I got games to run.

I saw that too say two different Hastings stores. I don't really know how I feel about that.

-Snes
Mario Paint CIB
Mario RPG
Ascii Super Advantage controller

And also the Skyrim Prima guide

I haven't posted here in awhile, but I haven't gotten much new either.



I picked these up in a oddly titled auction so I could have an extra copy of the DWIV book (only a small tear in the map, otherwise in very good condition! This was kind of a gamble, there was basically no description.)

If anyone wants the other two books, I have zero interest in them.

The funny part was opening up the Game Genie book and a single page from the FFIII instruction book fell out. Weird weird!

Kamikazee, very nice finds!      Nice adds.  AV will certainly be better on the Genesis.  I've had that same issue with 2 Genesis models.  AV perfect, RF garbage.
