Video Game Deals, Sales and Promotions / PS4 20th Anniversary Edition

« on: December 05, 2014, 03:16:43 pm »

Sony is releasing a 20th anniversary PS4.  It's grey like the original and has etchings with the PS shapes and the number 20.  Individually numbered.  Only 12300 will be made.  Details on price and how to get one will be given at the Play Station Experience keynote on Saturday.  I have a feeling the price on this is going to start crazy and get crazier.  Apparently in Spain it will be sold via charity auction.

So, who's going to fight over this one?

Site Feedback / Physical game counter

I love the pie chart.  Could there be a separate counter and/or chart for physical games, as opposed to digital, consoles, accessories, swag etc.?  I feel like the focus of most collectors is on physical games and it would be nice to have a quick count of how many you have.

General / Storage Methods

How do you store your games?

I'm keeping my older carts in plastic containers (e.g. Sterilite).  I'm trying to decide weather I should take the carts I have boxes for and keep them in the boxes.  Also I have all my manuals in ziplock baggies separate from the boxes.  I want to strike a balance between consolidation and preservation. What do you think?  Do ziplock baggies contain acids that will damage the manuals over time?

General / Unreal Tournament 3 Steam codes.

I've got two Steam codes for Unreal Tournament 3.  I got them from Unreal Engine textbooks, and I'm 99% sure I never used them or gave them out.  Respond first or second to claim them.  PLEASE only respond if you are actually going to download and play the game!

General / THQ

So it was announced that THQ has been split up and sold to a number of different companies including Sega, Take Two, Ubisoft, and Koch Media (whom I had not previously heard of).  The only studio that hasn't been bought yet is Vigil which sucks.  Anyone else sad about this?  What is your favorite THQ game?  I've always been a big fan of the Red Faction series myself.

General / Nintendo Power trading cards

« on: January 20, 2013, 10:45:12 pm »

I was going through some crates with my old magazines and I found a binder with all of my trading cards from Nintendo Power.  The binder is an official Nintendo Power Club item with 2x2 card sleeves.  I'd like to put the binder in my collection but I'm not sure where it would go.  Maybe under Swag-print media?

I'd also like to catalog my cards in some way but not sure if that's within the appropriate scope of this site.  I certainly don't want to make an entry for each card! Maybe just an entry for each set?  Maybe I'll just scan the cards and upload the pictures to a forum post so people can see them.  What do you all think I should do?
