I broke down & bought Diablo 3 for the PS4 tonight.  And wow, that's some really fun couch co-op!  My wife and I had a blast playing it.  They do everything right on the co-op end (automatic gold sharing, loot is flagged for either player 1 or player 2, you share a screen (no split screen) and if one person lags behind it will "warp" them to the other, etc.

Went to a flea market today... most of the video games they had there were at reseller's booths but I found a few things just randomly for pretty cheap. Nothing great at all, but there were a few little things I got that were of some interest.


Ps1 with 1 controller ($6)

And then the guy I got the ps1 from also sold me a little disc folder with the following ps1 games for $6

Twisted Metal 4
Spongebob Supersponge
2Xtreme
Goofy's Fun House
2 copies of Driver
Syphon Filter 3
and then he had a Frogger with the jewel case and everything that he threw in but it ended up having Action Bass inside instead, lol. What I get for not checking beforehand...

there were also randomly 2 PC games in there too
Age of Empires 2 and NHL Hockey

Then on my way home I dropped by a game store I frequent and got

Ps1
Loaded ($8)

Ps2
Dead to Rights ($3)

DS
Glory of Heracles ($8)


All in all nothing awesome, but I got a few things I'd been wanting and didn't end up spending much at the end of the day so I'm happy.

I picked up this mini entertainment center at a thrift store for $10 today.

Soon theflea will be helping me fill the CD tray with more PS1 games. :)

PS2: All were 75p each

Batman Begins -
Prince of Persia: TSoT
The Simpsons Game
Spider-Man 2

Gamecube:  This is where the 'amazing deals' part comes in, the awesome person at the counter sold them to me for £10 for the lot

I swear, every time I'm about to quit going to Goodwill, they change up their prices and actually have some stuff for once lol

PS2 Slim Adapter
PS2 Blue Controller
Sonic Mega Collection
Super Mario Strikers - Sadly missing the game, but this one store lets their empty cases get sold off for cheap and it has all inserts.
Scurge Hive
Cruisin'n Velocity
Super Mario Kart Super Circuit

Funny thing about those two GBA games, they were actually stuffed into that Scurge Hive case for some reason and at no extra cost, so I got two random games and Mario Kart for only 3 bucks lol

Nice finds everyone - dashv, I really like that entertainment center - if you had bought it new I'd be asking where I could get one.  ;)

Here's my haul for the past week:

PS4:
Watch Dogs CE
Diablo 3: Ultimate Evil Edition

PS3:
Time Crisis
Agarest War Zero LE
Tales of Xillia 2 CE guide

PSP:
Ape Escape: On The Loose

DS:
Ghost Trick

IMG_4150

So the first game in the Agarest series only got a digital release in the US on PS3.  So I'm going to import the UK version so I'll have a physical copy.  Well, the series has a slightly different name in the UK (Agarest: Generations of War, US title is Record of Agarest War) and since I'm anal and want them all to match, I'm gonna just import all three.  :P  I got Zero first because Amazon had the LE for $30 shipped, and I thought that was a pretty good deal.  :)

Tales of xillia 2 had a CE for the strategy guide? All I saw were the paperback.

Actually, I think all it had was the CE - I'm pretty sure the only US guide they made for it is hardback.
