General / Re: Current Collection Goals?

« on: November 17, 2018, 02:31:42 pm »

My main goal is to finish up my NA 360 unique games collection. I'm down to one, but it's not even in the database.

Just Dance 2019 I'm assuming? They even made a Wii release of that game.

I'm actually just getting back into working on my 360 collection myself, as recently my overall collecting focus has mainly been centered around Board games, Lego sets, and Nendoroids.

No, I did pick up JD 2019, but yeah it's not here either, lol. The one game I'm missing is Fifa 19. it was released in Mexico, but not the US.

Off Topic / Re: Establishing meaningful active friendships as an adult

Man, I can relate. Until I moved 15 years ago, I was super social. Going out with friends a couple times a week...friends were at my house every weekend. I had a ton of friends, and making friends was easy enough. As soon as I moved it just stopped. I'm friendly with people, get along well with coworkers and such, but I haven't made any real friends either. I NEVER have company anymore. It's like....I just lost the ability to make friends overnight...It was really hard to adjust to at 1st, but I'm pretty used to it now. FYI I was right about to turn 30 when I moved.

Edit: I actually got into video games because of my newly found lamenesse. ( I had been into games pretty good until I graduated HS- so it wasn't totally new) I moved in 2003 and got my Xbox 360 a bit over 7 years later....so gaming wasn't the reason for me either- I gave it plenty of time. Might be why I care less now though, LOL

About 20 years ago, I took my record collection over to a good friends house, he had a DJ gig and wanted to see what I had (Lots of 80's stuff) He was looking to buy some as well, for said DJ'ing. One day he just up and left. He had met a girl and they ran away together....with my record collection. He did touch base with me several years later through Myspace. When I asked if he still had my records....he ceased all communication.

Classic Video Games / Re: Anyone going for a complete set?

I'm going for a complete NA run of unique Xbox 360 games. I'm not doing a master set, but I do collect some cover variants. I'm down to 2 games, both released in the last month or so. Fifa 19 and Just Dance 2019. Fifa wasn't released in the States, but was released in Mexico from the look of it. I like 360 because it was the console that really got me back into gaming after nearly 20 years away, and nothing is extremely rare or extremely expensive.

I miss the 80s. The movies, the music, the video games. Pop culture really was at a great place then. Anyone else?

I went through Elem, JR high, and part of HS in the 80's. It was an amazing time to be a kid.

Classic Video Games / Re: Do You Own a Dreamcast? What Game Drew You In?

« on: October 03, 2018, 06:35:29 pm »

A friend said "I have a dreamcast, if you want it". I didn't even know what it was (Wasn't into games at that stage in my life) but he gave it to me w/ some games for free. I still have it, played a bunch of shadow man, Phantasy Star Online, and Timestalkers back in the day. I have more games for it that I intend to play.
I think it's a great system.

« on: September 02, 2018, 07:15:03 pm »

For PS3 and PS4 I have my imports in with my regular games, since they all play on the same system.

For Xbox 360- If it plays on my NTSC console, It goes with my main games. I do have maybe 10-12 imports that I keep with my XB1 games, since that's the console they play on. They are not mixed in of course, just put after reg Xb1 games.

I join websites I have little real interest in, and make pointless thread after pointless thread. I usually try to pick a pretty inane topic because that keeps me extra entertained.

Personally, I would prefer if unofficial games could be in a separate category.

Absolutely!

General / Re: Do You Coop or Team Up In A Game? Or Compete Head To Head?

« on: July 21, 2018, 02:11:12 pm »

Mostly Single player here. I HATE online VS, or PvP games. I enjoy co-op immensely depending on what it is. If it's a horde type game mode I generally don't like it as much, but games with drop in campaign co-op like Dead Island and Dead Island Riptide I love.

Not at all, that would be petty. I'd probably thing "Dang, why can't that happen to me, or good on them for getting such a great deal"

Congrats on 1K!

I'm at just over 3K, probably 1/2 of which are 360 games, lol. I still need to add a lot of physical PC games (Of the ones I tried to go through, 1/2 weren't even in the database...so I need to add a lot- only went through 1/3 of mine as it is) If you see my doubled on 360, it's because they are a variant I haven't had time to add to here yet....I don't actually catalog my duplicates. Probably know of 30-40 variants I don't have that aren't in the system as well. Still need to add NES and SNES too...shoot, need to make time. Probably need to add my game guides too....omg too much crap around here.

I'm fairly new to the site, so still a work in progress.
