The Endurance DVD - $5.00 BookOff
I already own the three disc Shackelton mini series/documentary from A&E which is very very well done. An amazing survival story, there are many books and video documentaries that have been published. This disc is one of the better versions with great footage. Still on the hunt for one more DVD documentary version from Nova, yes the story is that good for a repeat watch from different perspectives of what took place in 1914.

PS2 NTSCJ Wander and the Colossus - mjmjr25
PS2 NTSCJ Wander and the Colossus Best - $12.00 BookOff

I bought the "black edition" some time ago from mjmjr25. Just picked up the yellow Best edition. The PAL release comes with extra footage not found on the US version.

The PAL version of the game was released in February 2006. Much like the PAL release for Ico, the game came in cardboard packaging displaying various pieces of artwork from the game, and contained four art cards. The game also came with a "making of" documentary, a trailer for Ico and a gallery of concept art, accessible from the game's main menu.

I have been trying to find out if the extras were also ever released in Japan, possibly in the latest Best edition version. To my dismay, the Best version I bought does not have a matched SCPS number, the disc matches the black version. Perhaps some yellow jacket Best releases had the earlier discs included? Already have the PS3 HD remake, the hunt continues for the exclusive level PS2 release! :?

I love the Team ICO series, have a dedicated Thread linked in my signature.

PS2 NTSCJ Pilot ni Narou 2 - $5.00 BookOff
I already own the PS1 version. This is sweet Flight Simulator, in addition to all the fighter jets, get a chance of flying a huge passenger Jet on the big screen. No idea why this series never got a US release.

A list of all the planes in my hanger. :mrgreen:

WWII: A-1, BF-109, B-17, F-4U, P-38, T-28, Zero
Fighter Jets: A-10, EF-2000, F-4, F-14, F-15, F/A-18, FB-111A.
Commercial Jets: DC-3, YS-11, Constellation, B747, Concorde, Learjet.
Military Jets: C-1, C-130.
Civilian Planes: Cessna, T-4

Wii Ghost Squad - $2.69 Gamestop
Based on Metal Jesus video review, I had to get this Light Gun game.

Xbox Doom 3 Resurrection Evil - $3.00 BookOff :shock:
A nice find, there are many BookOff Xbox games going for only three bucks! This was an add on level of the Doom 3 series for the PC; a standalone disc for the Xbox.

Wiki wrote:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doom_3:_Resurrection_of_Evil

The Xbox version does not require the original Doom 3 in order to play, and includes the original Doom, Doom II: Hell on Earth, and Master Levels for Doom II. The Xbox Resurrection of Evil version adds an exclusive new feature to the gameplay: the flashlight is now attached directly to a weapon.

Xbox Dead Or Alive Ultimate Double Pak - $5.00 BookOff
Includes Dead Alive Ultimate One and Two, that is only $2.50 a game! I have the Dreamcast and PS2 DOA Hard*core renditions, this is a nice addition for arcade stick battles. :D

Xbox Midway Arcade Treasures 1 - $3.00 BookOff
Xbox Midway Arcade Treasures 2 - $3.00 BookOff
Xbox Midway Arcade Treasures 3 - $3.00 BookOff

I have these same exact three discs (as well as earlier enditions on the PS1) on the PS2 and Gamecube as well. Volume 2 and 3 support 480p. The Xbox is already a Mame machine, but I had to get these as well. I am an absolute nut, someone help me.

Xbox Silent Hill 2 - $15.00 BookOff
Already have the PS2 Greatest Hits version which has the most extra content. I had to get this due the Xbox reputation of just a little bit better graphics. Had to relearn where the game saves were, the red pieces of paper!

Image

Xbox Return To Wolfenstein - $3.00 BookOff
The FPS that started it all back on the PC DOS days, have the PS2 version here too. For the DLC (off Xbox Magazine demo discs), oh I had to get the Xbox version. Unlike Doom Ressurection, there does not seem to be the original game Wolfenstein 3d hidden anywhere, perhaps an undocumented unlock?

Xbox Taito legends - $5.00
I was thinking this had different Arcade games compared to the PS2 version, turns out that is on the volume 2 version. Ah well still a nice grab of 29 "Arcade Cabinets" for only five bucks. :mrgreen:

PS1 Barracuda 2 -$3.00 BookOff
YES! Another back up of one sweet controller. This is one of the very few controllers that can have BOTH analog sticks works as the DPad. Okay why is this relevant? First, by allowing non duel shock games to play with analog stick control. In addition, there are a certain set of games that greatly benefit from this.

Tank Control Fix

ONLY the Interact Barracuda and Sony Flightstick controllers sticks can function same as the Game Pad when set to digital mode. I hold up on the Game Pad or Stick to move forward and at the same time turn with the other stick. This actually works pretty well and no more stopping to spin around the on screen game character. A great work around for Tank Control games such as Resident Evil or Little Big Adventure.

PlugnPlay Joystik - $5.00 BookOff
Before opening the spoiler, take a look at the picture below on the bottom left. See if you can identify the Joystik. :cool:

Good Call, answered before my first Edit!

C64 Direct-to-TV
Oooh yeah! I could not believe how inexpensive this rare PlugnPlay was. So why so pricey online? Due to a full working Commodore 64 inside with solder pad hookups for an external keyboard and floppy disc drive! Amazon has it ranging from $55.00 to $139.99!

I adore this game, I've played it on Wii VC. It's quite a find for free!

I was actually under the impression it was only released in PAL-B region, but Australia is PAL-A iirc. Good to know I can actually get it, even if I have to auction off a kidney to do so.



Yeah I have looked into getting it a few times and actually bit a few years ago, but the ending price always got higher than I was willing to pay. Very happy to own it!

Far Cry 4 Limited Edition(PS4)- $25
Glad to have something to mess around with on my PS4 it's been collecting dust for about a month or two now :lol: . Really looking forward into hoping into it while I didn't care much for some of the characters in 3 the game itself was pretty awesome.

Fallout 3 Preorder Case with CD & Poster- $1
Love Fallout 3 so I thought this was pretty awesome it's got a sampler disc with songs from the sound track and a nice poster. Apparently it is pretty pricey online as well :lol: . Apparently these were given out at game stop for preorders I hadn't seen them before thuogh.



Gamestop
Klonoa(Wii)- $8.99
Hadn't heard this had been remade for Wii awesome :). Never got around to playing the series on the PS1/PS2 so this will be a nice entry point.

Championship Foosball(Wii)- $2.69
Looked interesting and was in good shape.

Drawn to Life The Next Chapter(Wii)- $2.69
Already had a copy but I think it may have been disc only or missing the manual.

Iron Chef America Supreme Cuisine(Wii)- $2.69
Another kind of odd game that I thought would be fun to try out.

GunBlade NY & LA Machineguns(Wii)- $3.59
Just picked this up the other day in Columbus disc only :P . Great game though glad I found such a minty copy nearby.

USB Kingston Expert Mouse - New - $8

Found it at a garage sale, the seal had been broken but it was never removed. Hooked it up last night to play some Missile Command, realized that I am still terrible at Missile Command.
