Smile: My new Dreamcast arrived by mail today!

Ticked off: Because its a big package I have to walk an hour return trip to go and pick it up from the 'local' supermarket. Living in an outer suburbian area with no drivers license or working bike sucks.

Smile: Picked up WWE All-Stars today. An awesome arcade wrestling game not far from Wrestle-Fest or WrestleWar! Also, seeing Paul Bearer's Funeral Parlour on my 360 is pure freakin' awesome-sauce!!

Ticked: Konami has once again delayed the 'Reverie' add-on for Castlevania: Lords of Shadow for the 360.. Konami, I love you, but you're about a week away from me taking desperate measures.. (yarr... :evil: )

I bought devil may cry 2 for $5 and it was glitchie on my ps2. I tried to clean the scratch up disc with alcohol, toothpaste, and soap none of it worked. wasted most of my day. Hook up hdloader worked like a charm no problems.
