call of duty world at war

I picked up a pair of CD-i (*GASP!*) titles the other day at a Goodwill:

• Jeopardy!, v. fine, complete, $3, R2
• The Joker's Wild, Jr., v. fine, complete, $3, R2

this brings my CD-i collection to a whopping three games

Wow, almost complete then :PFredGoon

:D haha 

• Jeopardy!, v. fine, complete, $3, R2
• The Joker's Wild, Jr., v. fine, complete, $3, R2

gmsnpr

Both sweet finds, for some reason every copy of Joker's Wild Jr I have come across looks terrible.

Do either of those games require the digital memory add on module?  

From Amazon: Luminous Arc 2 w/art book

Guitar Hero II (PS2) - according to ign my 100th ps2 game, though ign counts the MGS collection and Devil May Cry Collection as one game, so technically I've been over 100 for a while.

-Legends of Wrestling (Xbox), used/complete, $5.95
-Legends of Wrestling II (Xbox), used/complete, $8.95

It's been a long time since I was a buy and open and play kind of guy, but in this case I did just that.  wthin seconds I had constructed what I deemed to be a pretty dope tune.  It is complicated, and will require some learning, but that is what will give the game some replay value.  It's like that mini-game in Electroplankton where you lay down beats etc... except much more indepth (and htis time you can save your songs).  I can't wait to hook it up to my sound system.

The Last Remnant (X360) 39.99 NEW

Just had to see for myself. 

Peter Jackson's King Kong Collector's Edition (PC), "New", incomplete (just the discs and tin): Free.

 A guy was selling a bunch of copies on Ebay for £3.50 each (99p excluding shipping), so I picked one up. It arrived without the outer plastic slip case, and it was just the regular, 3 CD version in the (admittedly, very nice black-and-gold) collector's tin without any of the other stuff. I sent the guy a message, he refunded me and told me to keep it. So yay for free stuff!

Scored:

Shepherd's Crossing - PS2 - New $13 from Toys R Us 

This is is something to check out, its a cheapr Harvest Moon it looks like. The instruction manual words dont even fit on the page, as if to run onto the back or something, but really they just get chopped off....kinda strange but it was cheap!

Call it a hunch, but methinks you two just might be in the same geographical area... ;)

Final Fantasy X (PS2) - Used - Complete - Pawn shop - $2

It also had FFX-2 in the case, so I'm trading that in on Goozex if someone will actually take it.

360 Black Friday Xbox Live Marketplace Sales listed on XBox.com

From FX Videogames, my local boutique store:

• Dune: Battle for Arrakis, v. fine, loose, $13.33, R5
• Outlaw Golf/Darkened Skye 2 for 1, GC, n. mint, complete, $13.33, R0 (hadn't seen this one before)

• a 36" light-up X-box sign--Picture below

• a 36" light-up X-box sign--Picture below

Whoa! That would look sooo good hanging in my game room. Great score! :shock:

Man even though I really dont like Xbox, I still would love to own somthing like that. Oh and I'm so jelous you got Okami, I really want it, is it any good, in comparision to The Legend of Zelda: Twlight Princess how does it fair?FredGoon

I played about 25 hours into the PS2 version and enjoyed it a lot, with the exception of some iffy controls in one of the excavation mini-games.  I hope that the Wii controls make that particular part more palatable.  I've played about 40 hours into the also-enjoyable Twilight Princess.  They have similarities aside from the white wolf thing:  lots of areas and NPCs, gradually expanding power set, backtracking--typical 3-D adventure title fare.

Silent Hill: Homecoming (PS3, New, Wal-Mart, $60)
Rock Band 2 (Game Only, PS3, New, Wal-Mart, $60)

*Kind of humorous on Rock Band 2, to use the Wii Mic on PS3, I have to hook the Wii Drum Set up to the PS3, which recognizes it as the Mic, then the Mic works fine, kinda weird*

Picked up a couple of 360 games today:

from Gamestation:

Burnout Paradise (X360) - complete, near mint, £15

Viva Pinata: Trouble in Paradise (X360) - complete, mint, £15

Huh. Just realised they are both paradisally-themed...

Holy moly, thanks for doing your part to stimulate the economy :) Good taste all around 

At the Flea Market I managed to get three games I wanted for while for a total of $10.

Dragon Warrior, NES, Cart Only, Excellent Shape R1

Gauntlet, NES, Tengen Cart w/ manual in pretty good shape, cart in like new shape, R1

Super Mario World, SNES, Cart Only, Cart in good shape, R1 

it's a bit eerie when you see carts this old and it seems like someone locked them away as they came off the press and revealed them after so many years. It's quite amazing how vibrant the labels look and it looks like no one has ever touched them. Maybe it's just me xD
