General / Games with reversible covers:

« on: May 13, 2012, 12:33:50 pm »

I *really* like some of these, and now, as I'm going (slowly) through my collection & adding games here...I'm also opening-up all of my cases and verifying the condition of each game & if the manual for the game is there as well.

*Except for any *sealed* games, of course

So far, I noticed that:

Heavenly Sword and Folklore (both for the PS3)

and

Digital Devil Saga (for the PS2) all have double-sided art-work for their covers.

Anyone else who likes these, knows of some, or has some to add...please do so!

Site Feedback / MOVED: Question

« on: May 10, 2012, 04:43:34 pm »

Is there a way to raise/lower the number of games displayed in your collection from 50 per page?

Is there a way for your collection page to (by default) be set to display by platform instead of just mixing various platforms together alphabetically?

Thanks!

Site Feedback / Bad/Wrong Link!

« on: May 09, 2012, 06:20:33 pm »

So I just added the PS 1 version of Tactics: Ogre to my collection.

The 1st thing that I noticed was that it was selling for more used than it was new XD

Anyhow, when I clicked-on the link...it took me to the Amazon page for the Tactics: Ogre game (*BUT* it went to the PSP version instead of the PS1 version).

The collection page here had the correct picture of the PS1 game & the correct SLUS #...and I added the correct bar code #...so...maybe it's a problem on Amazon's end or with Amazon's numbers?!

General / Your Specializations/Areas of Expertise?

« on: May 09, 2012, 09:04:53 am »

Thought it would be nice to have a topic where site-members can post what platforms/games they're the most knowledgeable about/have the most experience & expertise in...

For myself, my "top 3" would be the Playstation 1, 2, and 3.

After that, my 'runner-ups" (which would all be a tie) would be Game-Cube, PSP, and Nintendo DS.

I thought that this would be a good topic/good thing to know since, for example, say that I came across some games for sale for the NES or Genesis (which I'm not at all experienced in/knowledgeable about)...I'd easily be able to quickly find/pm the most appropriate people here for help w/ value, versions, recognizing an imitation, etc.

And on the other side, anyone w/ questions about Sony consoles & games would know that I might be able to help them out w/ something or answer a question for them.

Site Feedback / Probably just missing something right in front of me...

« on: May 07, 2012, 04:40:12 pm »

...but I can't seem to find like a basic "Newcomer FAQ" or anything like that.

What I was originally trying to find was how to add that cool-looking & self-updating collection box to my sig.

Is there a FAQ's section here or a basic "How to/how do I"...etc?

Thanks-

Modern Video Games / A Game of Thrones Game...

« on: May 05, 2012, 06:07:58 pm »

Anyone else here fans of George RR Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire (ASIF) series?

If I'm not mistaken, there was a PC version of the game for A Game of Thrones released awhile ago.

While I don't know anything about this one - I have been keeping my eye on the PS(3) version that's getting released in a few weeks.

I'm "cautiously optimistic" about the game itself, but I did pre-order a couple of copies of it.
One copy for me, and one to hold on to (w/ the idea that, even if the game is 'compressed-crap-on-a-disc') that...

...with the "ATLUS" logo on it, the game being an Atlus RPG, and the pre-orders coming w/ art-books signed by George RR Martin...if things go as they usually do - I'm thinking that, down the road, I shouldn't have any trouble (at the least) getting my initial investment on them back.

So, does anyone have/is anyone else getting any versions of this game?

Also, btw, I'm a big fan (read all of the ASIF books as well as about 90% of everything else that he's written); and, so far, I've been liking (for the most part) the job HBO's been doing w/ the show.

Tyrion! FTW!

General / Misc. NISA Merch. and 'odd' books?

« on: May 05, 2012, 05:43:18 pm »

Does anyone else here have any of NISA's misc. items?
(Like Giclees, various/assorted "Prinny's", etc)...

And/or the various NISA/NISA-Related "Art-Books"?
*NOT* the small ones that come w/ the LE's...but

The bigger (iirc - they go for ~ $75.00 or so/brand new in Bookstores like Barnes & Noble) 100 page (or so) art books for Ar tonelico & Atelier series?

I'm nowhere near ready yet (I'm going to keep adding stuff here a little at a time (games 1st) in order; for my PS1, PS2, PS3, PSP, DS, and Game-Cube games)...then hopefully/eventually get around to strategy guides, ost's and other misc. type collectibles...

So, basically, for future reference...does this site (and if so, where & how) track/list things like Giclees, Prinny Plushies, unusual art-books, etc?

Also, if all of my questions are already answered here someplace...a link to it would be just fine

*NOTE*

I'm probably the *MOST* "Un-Tech-Savvy" person here...and  my browsing & posting is  somewhat often done via a wireless keyboard for my PS(3).

In other words, if any answers are in the least bit 'technical'...I'll be needing the "For Dummies" version of it!

Thanks!
