The Game #4 Posted August 9, 2005 ....... Why??? ...... 906420[/snapback] Of course it was because of the Game E.T... "THE INTERESTING THING THAT I FOUND OUT ABOUT THESE GAMES, IS THAT IN THE YEAR THAT THEY MADE THE E.T. GAMES, THEY HAD TO RUSH THEM INTO PRODUCTION SO THAT THEY WOULD BE READY IN TIME FOR THE RELEASE OF THE MOVIE. WELL, IT ONLY TOOK THEM 6 WEEKS TO CREATE THE E.T. VIDEO GAME. AND IT IS SAID THAT THE MAN IN CHARGE OF THE PRODUCTION OF THE VIDEO GAME WAS SO DISGUSTED WITH THE FINISHED PRODUCT THAT HE PULLED ALOT OF THEM OFF OF THE SHELF, AND HAD ABOUT 160,000 OF THEM BURIED. EVEN THOUGH THEY SOLD A TON OF THE GAMES. SO, HERE IS A RARE ONE...AND THAT IS THE STORY AS I KNOW IT......GAME IS USED(AS-IS) BUT IS IN GOOD SHAPE. I PAYED A PRETTY PENNY FOR THIS ONE, SO I HOPE THAT SOMEONE ENJOYS IT AS MUCH AS I DID. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL OFFERS FROM OTHER E.T. COLLECTORS, BUT NEVER THE INTEREST TO SELL. NOW THE TIME IS RIGHT"... What do you think??? ahahahahahahahahahaha this guy is smoking crack! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
