Amazon should not accept laser cards while drunk!!!

I've just ordered this!



I really really wanted it though and the credit union better give me money!

It was a very spontaneous decision :P I was about to order the pokemon typing game and that popped up. Drunken logic kicked in and next thing I knew I had a confirmation email :P

I thought you'd know at this stage that drunken purchasing is a bad idea

Evidently not! Ah feck it, I've worked hard over Christmas. I deserve it!

Shouldn't there be a setting on your PayPal account that won't let you access funds at 3am?
But, the said, it is a lovely thing.
I too would love a 3dsXL at some point, a DsiXL as well.

For a second I thought that was going to be a Toyota Levin. :pac:

I think that was the same woman who left her keys in the door for Dino, not sure if he was tempted or not, think the lure of Atavans parlour and big screen Tokyo Jungle was too much, pushing carnality aside.

First fire of the winter. Now it's Christmas!

Good Jesus we havn't had the fire off since 2009; however do you manage!

Basking in the warm glow of that gold wallpaper I'm guessing.

Same as yourself, fire is on most days for over a month now. Nothing like a real fire.

I had the chimney cleaned out about a month ago, but hadn't been able to find a fire guard anywhere in the city centre. Then it dawned on me - Argos!

It's the first time I've had a fire lit for years. Absolutely love it. Definitely can't be beat.

Dale Parish

Ah yes! Ye olde wallpaper; phased out over the last 12 years :-( Making a comeback though...... I do remember my Pokémon wallpaper (151 of course...)

I picked up Operation C in Rage the other day. They gave me 2.50 off the price as well.

Excuse the bad pic. This bundle just arrived earlier, I've been wanting to try the Dark Cloud games for a good while.

So I got my hands on the Megadrive/Mega CD 1 combo yesterday. Haven't had a chance to power it on yet, only marvel at it's beauty.

I know we throw that word around a lot in relation to hardware, but jesus, the Mega CD1 just compliments the Megadrive 1 so well. obviously I've seen pictures before, but I did 'WOW' when I took it out of the box. Can't believe it's taken me so long to get around to buying one.

It makes the Mega CD2/Megadrive 2 combo look like a joke.

CiDeRmAn

Less said about how the Mega CD2/Megadrive 1 combo looks the better...


Or, worse still..

It really is a lovely thing to look at, not that many games worth having for it but I intend to pay it some attention next year & pick some of the better ones up

Set it up a few minutes ago and it all works fine Couldn't figure out how to eject the tray - mad that it's the reset button!

Vic!
Doom 64 is fantastic , and a different enough game in its own right.

Have you played PCE Street Fighter 2 CE yet? It's a technical marvel.

Not yet, its a real grail GET! for me though. I remember seeing it on Bad Influence years & years ago and being bedazzled by it!

@Bob - yeah I've heard some good things about it. I like to collect Doom on as many formats as I can too so thats the N64 done. Jag next!
