    Ask the local game stores to put them back for you. I found out my local stores throw away clamshells. I asked them to hang on to them for me. I go in once a week and see if they have any cases for me. Doing this has paid off with tons of cases and even guides. You can also try asking to swap for a better case when your purchasing a item.

    :thumbsdown: Very unimpressed with the new dash. I prefer the old layout over the new interface. It feels thrown together and certain things feel like a afterthought. I'd like to see more of the screen used for the preview windows/ads/buttons. Instead everyting is tiny and different sizes. The new sounds when your flipping thru menus is annoying. The Neflix layout is unappealing. It truly is ugly and I dislike how it automactically starts playing when you click on something. What if I don't want to watch that episode but scroll thru them before I make a choice. Instead it starts playing the next episode and I'm stuck listening to it in the background while I look at others. I'm sure there are other things I'll like/dislike but my initial opinions are negative on the update.

     

    On a side note I'd like to purchase Sonic CD but MS doesn't want my money right now.

    The christmas I most remember was getting my SNES. My parents took me out shopping and I stayed in the van when they ran into the stores. My mom came out with a SNES and said it was mine. I couldn't have it until christmas though. I pulled it out of the bag and read everything on the box as we drove to the next store. They went into the store (Which had a baseball card shop) and came back out with some more stuff a few minutes later. On the way home they stopped at Long John Silvers and bought me dinner. They said that I could have the SNES if I stayed home and busied myself with it while they finished. I readily agreed and ran to my room in the basement with food and a SNES in my hands. I can still recall the feeling of being home alone and hooking up my new SNES and eating Long John Silvers. While I was eating I was reading the material that came with it. I could send away and get a free Super Mario Allstars game. I thought to myself how cool a free game just for buying a SNES. After I ate I cleaned my hands and hooked it up to my 13in color tv. This was the first color tv the family owned and I recall playing my NES on a b & w tv for years. While this was a few weeks before christmas I consider this the best early christmas present.

    I recall a few other things I received that year for christmas. Some Nolan Ryan plaques because I'm a huge Ryan fan. I still have the plaques and plan on putting them in the new gameroom. Several TMNT figures and a few packages of Hotwheels.

    Picked up Jurassic Park today at GS. I've yet to play it, but I'm curious if anyone else picked it up ? I've heard no buzz about it with all the other big games released the last two weeks. JP and Halo where the two games that I was looking forward too. I like the fact that it got a physical release for the 360, but I think PS3 is D/L only. So thoughts and opinions on the latest JP game ? For those interested there will be a Jurassic Park IV movie in the next couple of years.
