So after work, I got a call from my sister. She was sick as hell, so I had to run her some food, since she didn't have anything in the house. While I was back in Midland, I decided to check the 2 game stores I used to go to and see if they had a cheap copy of Earthworm Jim.

The first store was a bust, but, I strolled passed the PS2 section and something caught my eye. I did a double take, and saw Mobile Light Force 2 sitting there. CIB and for $3 too! Yoink! Sure it's an utterly stripped down version of Shikigami no Shiro. But, I've been wanting to get it for awhile.  Now I just need Mobile Light Force 1 (Gunbird). They also had Super Tennis there and for $.98 who can go wrong?

After that, I decided to hit up the other store for grins and ended up walking out w/ EWJ for SNES for $10!

Plus, a dude gave me $5 at work for saving his ass w/ parts for his trailer. So it's like I only paid $8 for everything, ha.

Aww. And here I thought I'd be the one getting that game first. :P

Nice finds. The local shops have been incredibly dry lately.

It's also in some generic feeling PS2 case. It's black and has a texture to it too... I'm thinking it's the legit case, cause the art, book and disc are all in there. So, ya.

Garage sales were a complete dud this weekend.  Closest thing I almost picked up was a copy of Spyro (PS1) until I noticed the disc was cracked.  I found a nice Genesis model 2 CIB, but they wanted $50 for it.

The only thing I did pick up this weekend was 2 Xbox360 original hard drives.  Not sure how big they are, or if they even work, but I only paid $4 each for them so I figured it's worth the gamble.

Gah, it's June already? Kicking off my month with Conquest: Frontier Wars and Dark Reign + Expansion on GOG. Only $7.39!

Not a game, but I also picked up a new 2TB Western Digital Black HDD during a Newegg sale for only $135, so now I can finally install my entire PC game collection :D

Edit: Ah, add F.E.A.R. 2 for $3.00 to that list. Sales ftmfw.

I didn't realize how much TMNT had gone up until the other day.  Great score on wild guns.

Other than #2, Mega Man 5 is my favorite in the series. Nice find as it's a pricey one! (And #6 is for that matter.)
