Is there a site that lists iterations of PC game releases? It's really annoying to not be sure if you're getting a big-box version or the budget jewel case (especially on half.com)

Not quite what you're looking for, but I use MobyGames to help me find out if a game comes in a big box.

Had a decent time at PAX East.

Got to see/play on an MSX for the first time ever which was pretty cool. I want one now. Also got to play Contra on a Commodore 64. What were they thinking?!

Picked up some Saturn/SMS/NGPC stuff, I never see anything like that in Maine. All in all a good time, hope to see some of you there next year.

I just successfully complete the first mission in Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six on the N64. This is quite the gaming achievement for me since I've had little to no interest in even playing anything lately. Yay I just wrote down my first password in I don't know how long. haha

I cataloged most of my dvd collection into my computer.

I have about 582 discs and 10 bluerays.

Not to mention another 15 or 20 being lent out to my family.

I just gone through the first episode of Wolfenstein 3D using the NewWolf SourcePort. The problem is that the ending animations don't play.

Anyone remember those ads for Diet Pepsi with Ray Charles going UH HUH? I only ask because Wesley Willis always ends many of his songs with "Diet Pepsi, UH HUH" and if I remember correctly, they had a huge spot in Super Bowl XXV.

Here's one of the ads.

Watching my four-day-old son has been far more entertaining than *gasp* playing video games. I'm a happy man.

That's a beautiful thing, s1mple.

The Atari 2600 port at 2:17 is freakin jaw dropping *AMAZING*.

Indeed! Very colorful and fluid. Incredible for such an old console.
