Another hard rock music band that not too many people talk about that is also great in my opinion the band is called "Great White" They did a few Led Zeppelin band cover songs, but not all their songs are covered I believe , a good album to watch for is Great White's "Psycho City" album

Great White's ..Twice Shy album also has some good songs on it too. I also have Great White's "Hooked" album and didn't even realize  that until writing this post I still haven't heard much of it though

I collect most punk vinyl, got a few test pressings. most of The Templars.

Hmm I never heard of "The Templars" what band can you compare "The Templars" with?

If you go to Warwick, RI, you may meet people who like to talk about "Great White"

I am not trying to sound like a troll and
I personally don't know the answer but, I would also not have gotten the PlayStation 4 version or Xbox One version. and instead have gotten the 2 PlayStation 2 Atari compilations instead because I know they also have a ton of games on both of them, and plus I am sure that I can keep the PlayStation 2 version and play it as long as I have a working PlayStation 2. It is sadly entering the PlayStation 3's and PlayStation 4 online lifeline. Given that their may be a PlayStation 5 soon, but I am not sure

If you don't already have them or know what they are, one is called "Atari Anthology" that other "Activision Anthology" In my opinion if you do already own both then you I think you wasted your money on something you have already.

Strange answer, has nothing to do with the question. You can still play games on PS3 and PS4 as long as you have a working system. PS4 isn't nearing the end of anything BTW.

Classic Video Games / Re: Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary Need Help, Save File Has No Airships To Progress

« on: November 26, 2018, 05:19:59 pm »

Was I hacked? how do I progress in a game that is now impossible to beat. I got the skill but I am stuck without an object needed to progress. after all the work I did in the other missions in which is even hard for me on easy. Am I missing something? their is no airships all of them were occupied then destroyed on my save file. And I am pissed because someone probably pulled a prank on me through the WIFI. and is likely to do the same again if I start over again.

Man, if you are really as paranoid as you seem to be about any glitch, etc being from hackers out to get you- maybe just play offline? Halo CE is single player only so there is no need to be connected to wifi.

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

« on: November 04, 2018, 07:22:14 pm »

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?

« on: October 29, 2018, 08:25:26 pm »

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.

General / Re: Question About Organizing My Collection

« 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.
