Early when Namco was developing games for the Famicom they used Namcot.
Was that to get around the release limits imposed by Nintendo? Or is that just what they used all the time?

doesnt that cost actual money tho??

goozex bucks are the fabrication of free games! I technically didnt pay anything for the disc!!

at least, that's what they want me to think...

My trusty Sony 40 inch XBR CRT Tube TV died on me the other day :( (NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!)

So I went out today and bought another TV...

Still putting my backup gaming setup together :( Will post pics once it is done...
 
I scored a free console from a customer. Solid wood and in fine shape. My customer's wife was gonna list it on CL but she offered it to me after we finished installing her LCD into her Liftbox.

I already popped the knobs off and i'll find ones more modern/contemporary in design. Awesome score! Now I can trash my Ikea stand that my tv/receiver/ps3 has been sitting on.

Not strictly videogame related, but me and my housemate decided that since we clearly have too much money
I wish
we should pick up some 40K and start playing

It may cost a hell of a lot but it's a pretty fun way to spend an hour on a weekday that doesn't involve a screen!

I have a 46 inch Sony XBR2 LCD as my main one.

Have my 60GB PS3, Elite 360, and Xbox + XBMC hooked up there.

Gonna hook up my red Elite 360, white PS3, Wii and Halo Xbox + XBMC on the new setup.

Can you make sense of all the rules? I remember trying to get into it when I was a lot younger, but it didn't really work out, I bought different armies/factions, found out I needed different rulebooks for all of them. It wasn't a success.

I'd love to try again though.

Yeah, though there are a lot, its best to start of small with a friend. You need the Codex for each army, as well as the main rulebook. The kit I bought has a rulebook, two armies and rules for the units in them (though if you buy more than that you need the codex), dice, templates & £100 or so of models for £40!

If you have a retail Games Workshop nearby you can ask for a demo game, which is what we did. Really helps you understand how the game should flow, and then you'll learn all the rules as you go!

Painting the models takes AGES though, and you'll spend as much money on paint as you do on figures initially, but if you like painting/modelling figures then you'll have a blast!

At some point i was playing it more than videogames when i was young, + the painting, terrain building etc, so much fun.

That was a good way to spend money as it was really some expensive shit :lol

Just replaced my old fat ps2 with this fancy new one. At least I can play Disgaea and Gradius V again (old console stopped reading CDRs). Oh, and retail World of Goo for 5$ (that's how it costs in Poland).

You're telling me! I spent far too much on that lot, but when you consider how much time you put into painting/modelling/gaming with them, its not (too) bad... just a scary up-front cost!

I actually used to collect the fantasy game when I was in my early teens, but I sold it all just before I left school to go to New York :D

I wanted a Kuro too, but I also wanted to get the red elite 360 next week, so I held back a little lol.

Beautiful controller. Kinda makes me wish I had a 360 just so I could use it.
 
I'm not sure where I put Peggle, but it should be in here too.

Also, I went to see Britney Spears in concert last Thursday in Atlanta, which was incredible. I bought some stuff there. There are three 24x36" posters, a ringleader/top hat with Britney's new logo on the top (it's not clear in the picture, though), the awesome tour program, pins, tote bag, and a couple of shirts. The keychain I bought isn't pictured.

That stuff carried the typical inflated prices but I wanted plenty of keepsakes from the concert.
