Proudly debt free. If you need a couple bucks, just ask.
Finally. 5 hours in so far. Amazing game. BN really put a ton of effort into this one.

Yes. Because as the OP says three times, "No one cares to see pictures they can find on google images...."

You get that ? Nobody cares about stock photos.

I'm really really excited about this one. Hader's an Austrian Comedian and I absolutely love his shows. My gf and I will be there.

And as my gf is currently in Vienna and will come here this night with the night train, I prepared an apple pie for tomorrow's breakfast

Did you buy the whole Platinum line ;-) Good games, enjoy.

No, I already had Resistance. But with the 20€/game deal at play.com I couldn't resist and had to get those games I skipped when they came out.

Haven't tried HS and MS yet.

Recent boot sale hordes (except Morph and Alfred Chicken, those were from Ebay)

Another CD32? Yeah, the one I found at a boot sale wouldn't play both sides of the audio, so I bought this set on Ebay, was a good deal considering it came with six games and a quality mega drive style controller thats far better than the official one.

Technically not a "pick up", but I spent money on it to get it repaired. The disc spinning motor was bust for ages and i finally found someone who could fix it for me as I wouldn't have a clue how to sort it out. Rather that than pay out for a new one. I love this little system. :D

launch games came in saturn/sega cd type-boxes :

afterwards, they switched to an all-cardboard variant, briefly, (like wipeout, above), and later, we got the the kind Track & Field has, which had a plastic "frame" [/QUOTE]

Ah, interesting, thank you; I had no idea of these early versions.

I saw some impressions on this from gizmodo and/or engadget and they didn't seem to like it

Knowing those sites, they probably did not like the fact that it was not made by Apple.

"In fact, it sucks. It has a poorly designed interface, lousy response time, buggy software, and it felt cheap and fat on my hand...The side bar widgets, which need to be dragged and dropped onto the screen to make them appear as tiny little programs, is an atrocious, gimmicky interface design. Wastes space and requires a motion that is simply not needed."

engadetmobile was more positive

Had to support Incognito with the great job they are doing in providing support for Warhawk! And got some great pickups @ Gamestop, they had such a huge amount of Ps2 games, double and triple copies of games.

Oh God they should fucking sell those!

Where they just giving them out?

Not sure if they're going to sell them, but they were tossing them out at the live show. I was the first one to catch one.

Not my picture but not a stock photo either. It's an August purchase when it eventually comes in the mail. I'm gonna install this thing myself (looks easy enough but hopefully I don't mess up) . Pictures will be posted (probably in September's thread)




- I have a suggestion to spice up the thread. It's probably hard logistically but maybe have like a Swag of the month award. I'm thinking of something along the lines of "most purchased" and "most unique cool purchase".

im using the 3G iphone for 24 hours now, and it' the most boring phone ever! he only good thing is the User Interface!

luckily i got both as gift, and iPhones here go for $1500 each. So i would make killer profit! :)

Hey Marwan what do you think of the new iPhone?
I'd like to hear the opinions of a Mobile Phone connoisseur such as yourself. I think it's game changing. Pity about the 2MP camera.

To be perfectly honest it isn't.

The best thing about it is only the UI which is of huge importance. But functionality coming from Nokia and Sony Ericsson in my opinion have better as phones. Sure you won't get the "WOOOOO" factor if you were to pull it out in on a train or something, but for personal sanctification; they are great
