  1. Just bought a big box Thunderscape, and was surprised to see the previous owner slipped a copy of PowerSlave in the box with it. Ain't that something...

      Woah! That is a VERY nice extra! I've been keeping an eye out for the PS1 port of PowerSlave for a good 3 years or so and still haven't found a copy.

  2. Migraines suck.. I miss bright light, I could see so well with it around.

      I was getting migraine type headaches while sleeping . Went to a chiropractor and I don't get them now .

      hope you're getting some relief. My wife gets em pretty bad so we understand.

      Migraines can be hell and I've heard of ones lasting for days at a time. I don't get them as often as I used to, but when I get a bad one, nothing helps except laying down. Sometimes my head doesn't get better until I finally throw up. :(

  3. I just noticed... the boxart used for frontline on the Atari Flashbacks is the Zellers 2600 compatible, and not the Coleco brand box. Any ideas as to why?

      Wild guess: because that's what is posted on AtariAge? http://atariage.com/software_page.php?SoftwareLabelID=754

      That would be a little sad if it were true, since a simple google search provides the 'correct' box art as the first result. I also noticed that on the box the Zellers price box in the corner was removed. This is just plain weird.

  4. Can we all agree that the music to Monty on the Run is one of the best pieces of music ever programmed.

      Thanks, I'd never heard that before. Good one, but I don't know if I'd put it on quite that high of a shelf.

  5. I HATE FEDEX JUST RING THE STUPID DOORBELL!!

      I guess it could be the 1/10 case then :)

      Yeah, they really should expend the effort to reach out 24 inches and press the doorbell, even if they leave right afterwards...Actually my last package, they did that!

    4. DoctorSpuds

      DoctorSpuds

      It's over I finally have the package. Despite the door slip saying the package WILL be available for pickup at 6:00 it came at 8:15, over two hours late,(Sigh) Happy Birthday to me...

  6. Just scored a copy of Zeller's Time Warp from A&C Games in Toronto for 6 bucks (Canadian) Wow... Wait this sounds sponsored, it's not... I just like it there.

      Lucky! I've been looking for that one.

      That's actually a pretty fun little horizontal shooter. I wonder who the original developer was.

    3. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Sounds Awesome!

  7. WARRIOR SHOT THE FOOD.

  8. Whenever you're considering buying a rather pricey game, always check to see if there's a Taiwan Cooper variation, they're almost always cheaper.

  9. A weapon to surpass metal gear

  10. So I watched Charlie Chaplin's Modern Times last night... Hmmm

      I couldn't stand my CV until I got a super action controller. It makes the games playable! Different strokes for different folks I guess, but the stock controllers are awful.

    3. S1500

      S1500

      I thought it was better than the regular controller

      Yeah it's great. OP has tiny girl hands maybe

  12. This weird boi just bought a boxed Odyssey 2, now I have 2 Odyssey 2s. I truly have no life.

    1. Flojomojo

      Flojomojo

      but you have 2 Odyssey 2s, which is kinda the same thing, from a certain point of view

    2. DZ-Jay

      DZ-Jay

      Odyssey2 + Odyssey2 = Life

       

      Sounds about right!

    3. GoldLeader

      GoldLeader

      Sounds good to me! Life is Good!

  13. Take me dancing...

      My original one, plus 3 extras (possibly more) and a Tanks Plus! I should be asleep but instead I got up and looked! Instead of counting sheep I'm counting Combat carts...

      K.C.s Crazy Chase and Killer Bees are my faves.

      The O2 has some jewels: UFO, the 2 KC games, Turtles, Killer Bees, Attack of the Time Lord, etc. Of course, some of the games (especially sports) have not held up well over the years...

      Not stupid. Unless you paid a lot, which would be unwise. I mean, it ain't a great system, but it's a little slice 'o history.

  18. Ever notice how fresh air smells better in the house than outside. Or am I just weird...

  19. Africa by Toto was playing at work today... It was a good day.

      Great song. Always thought the librarian in the video was kinda hot. ;)

  20. I think it's a toss up between the Sears Big Sexy and the AT&T CDO for the best looking game console
