Bought a couple 26oos off of him and a few games. Items arrived extremely well packaged, would definately recommend to buy from in the future, very respectful and polite.

[Elder Scrolls V Skyrim discussion]

Can anyone give me a hint for one of the misc quests?

 

I'm trying to find that wanted Redguard woman in Whiterun somewhere who is wanted by those two guys.

Havn't played through this quest all the way yet, but I believe I found her in the inn...

[Elder Scrolls V Skyrim discussion]

I just discovered this article on Kotaku and thought I'd post it as a warning for those playing the PS3 version of the game as it may be broke:

!!!!!! WHAT!?!?!

 

Holy crap that blows. I have the PS3 version, don't have a PC capable of playing it or a 360, and ...*goes to check file size* Mine is 5.1 MB...why god, why?

 

But it must not happen to everybody's file, i mean I haven't noticed it because i'm just barely at 5 MB but it's already been reviewed and played through by numerous gaming sites and wouldn't that've been something they'd notice and/or say something about, i mean if it's as serious of an issue as they are claiming...I will keep y'uns posted about mine..

[Elder Scrolls V Skyrim discussion]

This game stresses me out more then anything, should I quit my job so I can play this all day or should I just keep paying bills?....err dammit I can't decide.

 

@Leach: That's cool as hell that that happened lol, Taking realism to a whole nother level!

I wanna get married..how do you find/get a wife? She stays at your house?

[Elder Scrolls V Skyrim discussion]

Although you should be able to take books with you, i kind of like having them in a set location, making you search/backtrack to find that final chapter in a series

 

I'm not sure what you mean here. You can take books with you. Reading them does not automatically take them but you can choose to take the book once you open it.

 

Doh! Okay..dammit I left all those books behind!

[Elder Scrolls V Skyrim discussion]

Funny thing is, what they added is amazing in some aspects, it's just to bad that what they've subtracted more than offsets that.

 

I think that sentence alone sums up this installment in the elder scrolls.

 

What they added (especially to the environment) is amazing. And regardless of everything they took away, I can't help but be completely and happily immersed (yet again) in the elder scrolls universe. I got the CE and waited in line at GameStop until midnight, my first time doing that, and i even took half the night off work to do it LOL. I really wish i didnt have to work 8 hrs a day 7 days a week, that's the only reason I've got only 15 hrs logged into this baby.

 

I like the textural world map, i just wish you could zoom out all the way and get an overview of the world.

The water. Some of the best visuals I've seen in any video game plus the current carries you away! Cool shit.

 

The Visuals overall are insanely detailed and polished, i would love to see how it looks on PC since it is claimed to be better, even though I dont know how thats possible.

 

Horses. They can go alotta places they couldn't before, but they still could use a little fine-tuning.

 

Love the magic system, seems much more user-friendly this time around even though many complain about it being overly simplified.

 

Complaint!: My CE dragon statue's wings were bent slightly NIB and it doesn't fit properly on the rock Man that blows!

 

And btw, Cocaine Skooma is still a hell of a drug!

 

So cheers, to another marathon session of Skyrim, and another sleepless night in the factory. Sunday Night Football? Psh, you can find my playing TES.

[WTB 2 Atari 2600 4-Switchers w/ common games Help Me Out Fellas!]

Ok let me begin by saying that I had to sell off my Atari collection 2-3 months ago because i had almost a grand stolen from me which was all my bill and rent money..moral of that story is that it KILLED me to get rid of one of my favorite parts of my video game collection.

 

Now I'm back on my feet and I NEED to get an Atari. And after having an hour long conersation with a buddy of mine from work..he wants to get one too because his dad bought him one when he was little. LMAO its actually a funny story, for Christmas in '89, he asked his dad for a NES which was still all the rage, but when his dad gets to the store, he gets an Atari instead purely because he compared the prices of that with an NES and came to the conclusion that they were both essentially the same thing but with the cheaper one he thought that he was getting the deal of a lifetime But anyways, I'm going to surprise him with a 2600 and turn him back into a gamer >

 

Now to get down to business, I REALLY want to get all this in one lot if I can...

I wanna do about $100 shipped...nothing more than that though

 

Systems/Accessories

 

Atari 2600 Vader Model w/ power cord

One Set of Paddle Controllers

Thanks, i found what i was looking for!

[Dark Souls]

My first day off n 4 weeks...I think I'm gonna sit and have a binge session with Dark Souls

 

I bought the damn game 3 weeks ago, ragequit (lol), and never had time to pick it back up and play it. I've never played demon souls but i needed something to hold me over til ES:V hits the shelves. I feel that playing somthing this punishing is only gonna make me love the Elder Scrolls even more (because of how laid back that series can be). On top of that this is handsdown my favorite genre in gaming.

[Quadrun........Is this the demise of it's rarity]

Oh okay, thank you, yeah I was looking at it for like 10 minutes trying to find anything different lol.

[Quadrun........Is this the demise of it's rarity]

then what was Cassidy talking about?

[Quadrun........Is this the demise of it's rarity]

I looked at the two pictures, and I can't tell a difference besides the shrinkwrap, what is it?

[Getting a PSP Tomorrow. Have a question...]

I would go with the Daxter combo because I'm pretty sure that comes with a 1gb memory card, plus i heard Daxter's a pretty good game. So all-in-all, that sounds like a much better deal, i didnt know the star wars one didnt have the 1gb memory card.

 

BTW:I'm also looking forward to buying the Castlevania game, i really cant wait.

[Most unlikely real person to appear in a game or packaging]

Michael Jackson

 

 

or Jack Thompson....haha yeah right, you know he'd never be in a video game, unless the game tried to influence you into not buying video games.

[Are there any hardcore Sega Genesis collectors on this forum?]

I dont collect for it, but I have like 70 games, like 30 are CIB, and i have like 3 genny's, and lots of accessories.

 

I do have something prized in my genny collection, and thats Beggar Prince, it's pretty cool that i can say i have 1 out of 900 games, at least for me it is.

[PS1 Games, Where Are They?]

i would see if there is a GameCrazy around you, they still have tons of stuff i think, but not for too much longer.

[Free EGM for 1 year from Joystiq]

It says that the promotion has ended? That's pretty gay, i wanted it, just for the fact that i would be getting a free gaming magazine through the mail, but nnoooooo....that sucks.

[What are they worth?]

Yeah, the sports games are basically worth nothing actually, the otehr ones i would keep a hold of tho(or sell).

[I FOUND an age old item in basement!]

I have seen several of those over the last few years on ebay and flea markets and they were allways only HALF of that rug, as if they were cut right down the center. It looks to me like you got 2 rugs there that were never cut, or yours is original and the others i have seen were cut in half to make 2 rugs....Any thoughts...

Based on total duplication of everything including the copyright and trademark legal fine print, IMO this is an uncut pair of rugs. They may or may not be very rare in this configuration -- it's possible they were sold at retail just like this as a larger rug (rather than going to the expense of making the artwork larger). And even if they are rare like this, they may not be worth much.

i agree, it does seem to be two rugs that are uncut, because the copyright thing in the lower left vorner of the rug.

 

Anyways, it is an awesome find, too bad something like that wouldn't happen for me....

[I don't like my Genesis]

I would seriously recommend trying out some of the sidescrollers before selling it, at least play Streets of Rage 2 and Shinobi III, I think you might change your mind, but the genesis collection has Shinobi III, and there is the 360 Live Arcade to get SoR 2, so, yeah, if you just don't enjoy it then i would definately say sell it, because there is no point in having something you don't really like.

 

P.S.-Do you know what's funny? Right as I typed that there is no point in having something you don't like, I thought of my copy of E.T. 2600 That just goes to show you how bad the game really is .

[Do you give a crap about achievements?]

I actually really like achievements, I just hate online only achievements, exactly because of the reason that Cabal mentioned above. Otherwise, they are really cool i think, not really for bragging rights, but more of something you can check on somebody to see how skilled they are at a particular game. Achievements also help me to actually want to try a game that I usually wouldn't try otherwise, so i can try out that game, and even if I'm not crazy about it, then I can still have something to show for it.

[Now that's what I call a backward compatibility update!]

No, I was referring to the Controller S. I remember even after they came out with it(instead of the giant one), people I knew still complained. I was saying "but mostly under-rated", because it fit pretty well in my hands, but the 360's is a lot smoother and a lot more comfortable. And also, the black/white buttons were a pretty big pain IMO.

[Now that's what I call a backward compatibility update!]

DAMN! I am so happy with this new update, Morrowind???? That's one game that I really have yet to get into playing yet, I will tonight, and other games that I have are now also BC, PGR1 and 2, and a few others. i don't get on my old Xbox hardly ever since I've been spoiled with the 360's controller, instead of the big(but mostly under-rated) original X-box controller. So it looks like there are 103 more games BC for it since the last time I checked...niiice.

[70LBS of Atari 800 computer parts @ $24.99]

how much would all that be worth? It's only $18 shipping to me....

[Heavy Sixer Factory Sealed?]

$5100?

 

That's alot, how much are one of these actually worth, that is, assuming it is a real Heavy Sixer? I don't think I've ever seen a single system go that high before, what's the highest anyone ever bid on a console itself?

[The Official "Thrift finds" Thread]

My best find ever was yesterday at the goodwill under two other random keyboards,

 

Tandy Color Computer 3(CoCo3)-$7.50

 

and then I picked up 2 SNES games for $3 each, both with manual,

 

MechWarrior 3050

Choplifter III.
