Re: Video Game "Look what I found"

Gotta love this time of year for in the wild thrift store finds. Best haul in awhile. With the discounts/promos they were running 28$ for all the below (ignore the vinyl in the top row lol).

Re: Random Gaming Thoughts

I am sorry if I asked this before, I can't recall but... for someone who never played Civ before which one is best? Many praise II but the recent ones are getting high scores as well. Also, does this game force you to do things exactly how the developers want? I played Pharaoh and you had to be ext...

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"

Found this Hori fighting stick and the stack of games at the local thrift today. Didn't even research the Hori stick but I figured I couldn't be doing too bad for 5 bucks. I don't know much about sticks but it feels pretty solid and clicky/looks good to me. And don't worry the games weren't 6.99, th...

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"

Yeah we have a Book Off here but the prices always seem kind of absurd. Example, saw a copy of Shenmue II for 60$. Seriously? 3x the Ebay price? But that's New York in general for you. I was watching a youtube channel of a guy buying some games at a Half Price Books in Texas and was shocked by some ...

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"

Half Price up the street has a lot of bigbox stuff in since I was last there. All the C&C games from the original through tiberian sun, both star craft and brood war(I bought those), age of empires 2 and expansion, half life and half life GOTY version, various others and they were all in that $...

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"

Nice little Monday morning thrift store pick up. They also had Battlefield Hardline for Xbox One but they wanted 15$ for that as opposed to the 5$ they wanted for Battlefront. Still no idea where they come up with these prices.

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"

@flylikeabird Considering PSO2 never came out in the US, I am baffled how that mousepad ended up at your thrift shop. Wow. Did some googling on it and there is not much, all I could find was that some were given away as a promo at PAX in Seattle, 2012. Couldn't find any ever being sold online or an...

Re: Any suggestions for simple and easy 2d platformers?

Tiny Toon Adventures: Buster's Hidden Treasure for the Genesis is also good. Alladin, Quackshot, and Castle of Illusion also great for the Genesis as mentioned.

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"

Picked up some cool/unique stuff today (to me anyway!) at the usual stops. I think a lot of the professional thrifters (hate that that's a thing lol) were home for the holiday today so allowed me to grab more than I would normally find. 35% sale for Columbus Day was icing on the cake. http://i.imgur...

Re: Video Game "Look what I found"

Found a original Xbox for $10. Pretty cool because I've been looking for one for quite awhile. There seem to be quite a few Xbox games that won't play on my 360 so this will be cool to have, and the user interface is really cool! I like green! congrats! man id love to find a working system for that...
