Nice finds! Medievil II isn't a terribly easy game to come across.

[elraiser]

Yup. i am really glad to get it even if it is only the number 1.

Gotta watch the budget very closely, since I handed in my resignation at work last week (today's my last day, woo!), but I did pick up Deus Ex: GOTY Edition, System Shock 2, Fallout, and Fallout 2 during GOG's massive sale that's going on right now. Too good to pass up, even though I have most of them on disc already - it's just much easier to get GOG versions running under Win 7

Any promising new prospects for work?

Any promising new prospects for work?

I think so, though it's a bit early to tell. Off-hand, about 5 potential places, each with someone referring me, but I'm going for the one I want most either after work or early tomorrow morning, which would involve doing remote desktop support. Trying not to get my hopes up, but there's a strong possibility that I'll get that and be technically employed again within a few business days. Fingers crossed, anyway

It's a bit irresponsible to resign without a guaranteed job, but after 2 1/2 years at this place, I really can't take it anymore. Totally 100% burnt out, and I need to escape the call center grind in a bad way.

I found something called "X-360" for the PlayStation. It's some weird demo disc, and it was sealed, though I'm not sure if this was originally sealed or not.

I bought it to resell, but it doesn't seem to sell at all on eBay.

Well, not the super find of the century but I picked up a few new guides for $1 each at the Goodwill. FF VIII and FF IX, Zelda phantom hourglass and twilight princess, Parasite eve, Metroid echoes 2, and Metroid fusion/prime combo. The 2 FF ones and the twilight princess are condition upgrades and the other 4 I didnt even have. They all looked brand new and if there was a poster with them, they are still attached.

I like getting the old Nintendo Power guides.  I just dig the way they did things.  My wife, on the other hand, loves to buy guides.  I have them of all shapes and sizes.  I have guides for games I don't have any intention of playing.

So do I!

I collected guides for a different reason for a long time : cause they were necessary. Way before the interwebz was all the cool stuff, the only way to find something that was hidden pretty well was to call a long distance number and ask for help or look it up in the guide. Now I just like having them as a part of the game itself.

Just picked up Twilight Princess on GameCube for a slamming $15

Any chance you'd want a Wii copy, more? I hate using the Wii Mote and would rather use the GameCube pad.

[turf]

I have the Wii copy. I quit playing it because I don't want to move. I'm a lazy bastard. I want to sit on my ass and play games. I'll hang onto this one.

Damn. Thought I'd give it a shot. I really want a GameCube copy, instead.
