Video Game "Look what I found"

[Snatch1414]

Some solid additions to my Genesis collection:

Separation Anxiety CIB
Bonanza Brothers CIB
Rocket Knight Adventures CB (posted in my B/S/T)
X-Men 2 Clone Wars CIB (same as above)

Also found RE: Code Veronica X PS2. Shocking how low this game is valued. Not that I expected it to be really high, but it's a great game valued around $5.

If I was on my death bed and Sands of Time was the last game I got to play I would die satisfied.

I'm on the fence on getting all three Prince Persia series on the Xbox or PS2. Mixed reviews out there concerning too much of the same on each level of the games?

The Prince of Persia games are awesome. Sands of Time is probably the best in the series; so, you can pick that up to see if you like it. Also, the Xbox versions - like almost all multi-platform games of that generation - are the best versions.

Just bought a Time Pilot cabinet from someone's garage for $40. Obviously needs work. Pics coming soon.

Aaron it may be time for an intervention, you have a problem

yeah, this is number 6. i don't know what the hell i am doing.

story: i troll craigslist pretty heavily and happened to see this ad 20 minutes after it was posted. the guy who posted it said he was cleaning out the house for a bank and there was no power in the house so he couldn't test it. i took a gamble for $40 and emailed him immediately. he got back to me and told me he'd meet me over there, and i tried to get a truck together but couldn't find anyone in time. he sent me the measurements and i was able to fit it in the back of my scion xD hatchback with it hanging out the back.

the thing is FILTHY:

I figured I'd at least plug it in and see what happened:

IT'S ALIVE!





both coin mechs are present and working:


and the key for the back panel is here, too:


for $40 i think i definitely could have done worse.

here's my buddy david playing a game:

It looks like someone ignored the, "FOR INDOOR USE ONLY" sticker on the back.

Pretty awesome that it's in working order.

That is so so awesome. Clean that thing up!

Skylanders Giants Portal Owners Pack 3DS $4.99 Comes with game and Tree figure. Sadly its an add on pack, so there's no base for me to put the figure on! But it does have a club nintendo code! okay, so, so

not a bad price, you can get a used base for around $5 usually.

You mean each game is too similar or within each game the levels are too similar? Can't really comment on that anyways since while Sands of Time is one of my favorites from the past 10-15 years I didn't like the sequel much at all and therefore never played the third one. For the sequel they went too far in the direction of "these games need more emo and there's not enough bro-tastic fighting."

Regardless they're all pretty cheap. Ignore the newest one that came out on Xbox 360 and PS3 if you ask me. Hated it.

[Fragems]

They also have the HD collection on 360 and PS3 which has all three.

Overall I really enjoyed the series when I played it one the PS2. Each game had their own ups and downs but they were all worth playing.

The first game has a great story, introduces the time control elements very well, and has some downright awesome platforming.

The second games got mixed reviews but i really liked it they added a shit load of weapons which you could pick up off your enemies on the fly, added multiple endings for those willing to hunt down all the hidden areas, some pretty cool chase scenes were thrown in, and there were some awesome boss fights. I also liked the music which was a bit jarring for some people. Only bad thing about the game was you ended up doing a ton of back tracking in the game and if you missed a door you were supposed to enter you could end up circling the map by accident since everything is interconnected.

The third game was kind of so so for me the story was good and the platforming was good as usual, but they added some things which bugged me. Main things that got on my nerves were the time trail like areas, stealth, and GOW style chain blades + Button mashing boss battles.

Overall I probably played the first game 6-7 times now, the second 5-6 times, and third once.

Helps that I now have that game and forgotten sands(which forgotten is the wii game with the bonus 1992 persia game I might just have to plug that bad boy in after I get a pro controller next week). I may need help though if i keep spotting things at goodwill now now if only a nes or snes or something would pop up that's not overpriced like that stupid 2600(which I really want even though it has et with it, the others sound fun )...

Now that is dedication, jumping into the game before cleaning off the entire glass.

When are you putting up the sign "Aaron Arcade Palace"?

Thanks for all the responses concerning Prince Persia, may have to jump on it.
