That's a nice set of CIB consoles!
I think Sin2Beta is going to be paying you a visit soon...

I thought the exact same thing. Where is Zach these days?

He has not posted a SG Awesome video in a couple of months, but I did see him online here yesterday.  Probably busy/lurking.

I also managed to find that same halo edition xbox last week as well for about $10 as well, what a coincidence! It's pretty sleek as well as least compared to the original model.

Does your's light up?  Mine works fine but the buttons do not light up...

[stethebubble]

so happy i got skitchin. it was one of my fave genesis games when i was a kid

[maximo310]

Yes, they light up when I turn on the console and stay on as I play my games on it. So far, I've had any problems with the system which I'm happy about since I've gotten screwed over on 2 original xboxes that turned on, but the dvd drive wouldn't read the discs of the games. But yeah, my halo xbox works perfectly fine, I don't know why your buttons don't light up.

So I went to a video game store yesterday that recently reopened after a fire that happenend at their old Location, and I was still able to find this much that I wanted from their limited stock (I also traded a few things so it kinda evened out) so for Trade+$15
and Doom 3 was  for $18 at GS
and Zelda 2 was an Ebay pickup for $12

Call of Juarez Gunslinger

An overlooked gem of a game.  Budget digital release or not, that's one of the best FPS games I've played in ages. 

After doing some research last night & discovering that the Wii U Skylanders portal *WILL* work with the PS3, I made another trip to TRU this afternoon:

IMG_3514

Got the PS3 Giants portal owner's pack for $12.50, the tower display/storage case for $5, the Giants arena display thing for $7.50, 2 packs of Giants buttons for $1.25/each, the Wii U pro controller charger for $3 and the speaker dock for $3.50.  Oh, and 2 multi-packs of screen protectors that contain screen protectors for DS Lite/DSi/DSi XL/3DS/Vita for .20/each.  Tempted to go back & pretty much wipe them out of those, they could really come in handy when I'm cleaning up handhelds found in yard sales.
