Seriously, what's with the poster?
Its made of metal I got it for a christmas present my fiance ordered it online through Toscano. She thought it looked cool without realizing who it was or what it represented and I didn't have the heart to tell her so now I'm kinda stuck with it. It does look kind of cool if you don't take into account the meaning of it.

DMC3:SE came as a budget priced update "I preordered it" at $19.99 all greatest hits titles $19.99 as well so if you saw a black label one it most likely not the Spec. edition or a misprint. But I will look into it, thanks!
Trust me, it was a SE. I already have the regular edition and wanted the SE, unless I am blind. Last time I checked, I can see fine. Also, like the Namco Museum Collection, there are also some BL available. It is as if the publisher decided to go the Greatest Hits route at the very last minute but not after a few BL were already printed. That's why both cost a pretty penny for each copy. And that was why I didn't want to pay that much for them.
Sorry to keep this going but you were right about the black label copies just saw one on ebay I had no idea! Thats why I like the forums here everybody is very helpful without the smashing like some other websites thanks!

I've got the check for the black label versions of Devil may Cry 3: Special Edition's that are being sold on eBay. Most likely, they are just a part of the 5th Anniversary Collection. They will have a small part on the back saying "Not for resale - part of a set" or something like that on the back. I have to check again on what my copy says.

ooh, that's a predicament ;). I'm not sure what I'd do in that situation either. Probably hurt her feelings... either that, or tell her we're breaking up. lol

Cool game room!

Nah, just put a piece of tape under it that has "This poster brought to you by Capitalism" under it.

Game room suggestions

Post by corn619 »

Besides the obvious hate for the steel lenin picture does anyone have any constructive ideas like controller storage ideas, cool mural themes anything? I'm open to ideas, one thing that bothers me that I've yet to find a solution for all my charger cables for my DS, PSP, Micro and various other rechargeable equipment I own. I would like to build something that eliminates the mess of charger cables. Kind of like a all in one plug in center, innovative ideas are welcome!

I just keep my charger cables with twist ties, stored in a shoebox in my closet. Whenever I need to charge something, I get the one I need, then put it away.

I feel you on Greatest Hits titles they mess up the perfection of black label games, the yellow Resident Evil is annoying. Thanks for the mural suggestions having spirts twist around the TV would be cool with dark colors like the dark purple color mist and black from the ff3 cover.
Here's a black label Devil May Cry 3: Special Edition.

If you look on the back of the cover lower left hand corner you will see "part of a set not for individual sale" meaning it was part of the Devil May Collection that came out last year or so they are not uncommon and I see them at the store all the time. When I bought my SE when it first came out it was before that set came out and only red labels were made. If you find a black label that doesn't have that "not for resale" on the back you will be a rich person because you will have the only copy in the world.
