I understand...but Undying is on the PC...and I don't/can't play games there... :oops:

Have you always been a console-only guy or do you just currently not have a PC setup?

I have played through a fair number of classic PC games, but I mostly stick to consoles. Also, I mostly use my laptop from work and certainly cannot install any games on it. (My wife also exercises dominion over our personal laptop.)

Undying is from 2001 so system requirements are nice and looooooow.

This must make you sad:

Somewhat related - I've made it a personal goal to read all of Clive Barker's books.

And comic books? I have a few minor Pinhead related things, but I don't think any are Barker written. I do have an old Rawhead Rex comic though.

I just finished Bionic Commando and my immediate thought is: There's no final boss fight. The final mission is a Quick Time Event extravaganza and Super Joe is killed in a cutscene. :x Yeah, Super Joe's the main villain in the game. :roll:

A friend at GDC called me to tell me about this great History of videogames event they have. Then I found this on joystiq this morning:

I think that between us all we have every thing in this except exhibit maybe the Pong trophy and the Neptune.

They bring this to a lot of cons. I've seen some of it at PAX East in years past and when I went to E3 a couple of years ago they also had a pretty big layout. Some of the stuff is damn cool, but I was surprised by how much of it I've seen come through trade lists on here over the years - there's not a ton of stuff that collector's haven't been able to get their hands on that the museum has...
