I saw Milon's Secret Castle yesterday when I was at the flea market. I heard it was crap, but I almost picked it up for $5.

I went to Good Will and saw Monopoly Party for GC for only $4. Should I pick it up?

Watch or read a review first. Its a secret all right. Everything is hidden. AVGN has a video on it, and even though he of course exaggerates, it really is bad. I'd check up on the game before you plunge.

Hey I liked that game, but I was ten and only had like three games at the time. LOL. Offer him a buck and say he is lucky you offered that.

If you got enjoyment out of it back then, good for you. I know there are crap games I've gotten enjoyment out of too over the years. Just offering my opinion and cautioning to be prepared before purchase.

I played the crap out of Fusion Frenzy with my two best friends in high school. I never really knew how much people hated it until recently though!

Re: Video Game "Finds of the Day"
Price wasnt extremly cheap or anything...but...it was more than fair for the condition:
The ends of the box you would use to open are so crispy its like opening a new system. I was shocked by that alone. *price on the box is not what was paid...anyone know how to remove that safly?*
As you can see I have not had time to clean it AT ALL, around the buttons...after that this will be about a 9 out of 10. Also sorry for my crappy pics I was in a rush to test it out lol.
It was put into storage thats for sure, it has the smell of sitting in a cardboard box for YEARS. But everything is there, the poster is still there and in really good condition for paper thats been folded up for going on 20 years. Makes my cleanest one to date. Mod Man having my other.
