@ Lord_Santa,
Thanks. Yeah I'm slowly building up that SMS collection. Ultima IV will definately be on that list.

That's sounds good to me. :)

So the latest purchase has been an Intellivision II system with a bunch of games and also including the Intellivoice Voice Synthesis Module.

I'd already owned the original Intellivision console but was always on the lookout for this smaller version. It looks great and the plus for me are those detachable controllers.

So the other day I picked up the God of War III Ultimate Trilogy Edition.
I think this might be different to the special edition that was released in the US. I don't think that one included the remastered versions of GoW I and II.

Yeah it was new.
It went for 1050 ZAR, so that works out to around $140.
Considering that the package includes all three games, I reckon it was worth it.

Nice!

Yeah, the US one had everything the Euro one has minus the Remastered prequels.

Also, I noticed at work the other day that the case for the GOW Collection only listed the sound output at Pro Logic: II which is just pure laziness on Sony's part in my opinion. If they're going to remaster the graphics and textures they should at least remix the soundtrack in Dolby 5.1 or DTS!

Concerning the FM Towns Marty I and II

The only difference between the two other than the color of the case is that the Marty II has a 486 processor inside it and the Marty I has a 386. Thats it.

Just remember if you do get one you must find a complete boxed Splatterhouse to go with it. Thats Marty's law.

Really?
I thought that was a common misconception regarding the faster CPU of the Marty II.

"Arcade Perfect" is what I keep on hearing about this version. So that's always appealing and I'll probably hunt down a complete copy once I've bought the system as well.

Not with regard to the older retro stuff, no.
I have though bought a PSone and a couple of PS2 games, and also some spec ed's of current gen games. Those special edition versions are of 'inFamous' for the PS3, 'Mass Effect 2' and 'Bioshock 2' for the 360.
