Huh? I always thought he just did his business in the corner.

Star Lord

Or in the swimming pool.

Let's face it, Atavan would score regardless, a king of gonzo sex that fellow

2 conferences from sony that were nothing but painful to watch

Nintendo seem to be the only one to know that games matter

If Sony just hadn't announced over a dozen new games for PS4 - a majority of which look very interesting indeed - in the space of around 10 minutes, I think I'd take that claim a little more seriously. If anything, Sony are the ones who seem most focused on 'games matter' these days. Plus, Vita is finally looking like it will be worth a purchase.

Ignore him. His mind would only change if they announced Sonic Adventure 3 along with the other games.

indie wise yes but majority of those games could be bought elsewhere besides that vita title murasakibaby which looks excellent

vita getting a price drop was the highlight and i hope it sells but i would like to see more games that a port of borderlands 2

Got done up like a kipper.

****ing bastard scuppered the deal

All reported but tbh Adverts can go and jump:mad:

His reason

It is my little sisters so she is the one who accepted the other offer as they gave 20 euro more for it...it's for her 11th birthday so she jumped at the chance...sorry for your dissatisfaction but it isn't my choice as the DS isn't mine.

Well then, how do you like the Animaniacs video games?

Myrddin

I'd be very wary about personally abusing people publicly like you did on Adverts there Sparks. You've no idea who people are or what they're capable of. Nothing stopping them seeing your comments, registering new accounts, arranging to meet you in a few weeks/months & causing you all sorts of trouble.

Sure enough rule breaking went on, but all you can do is report it. There's no sense in taking it any further than that & opening yourself up personally to grief. Just my 2c

Agreed i went too far there

Red mist can do that to you

Probably going to end my time on adverts not really worth this crap:mad:

o1s1n

Not worth the trouble at all. Any good deals are ruined by off thread offers.

Anything game wise I'll just buy/sell through our forum here.

Sure, who needs Adverts when you have getting kneed in the ghoolies outside a pub, at least you'll be drunk when you get done over!
Plus, we'll always have the A&R Marketplace!

Hey, is Paper Mario for the GC worth €30?
My son is just about finished it on the Wii and clipping along with the 3DS title, I have the N64 game that he's yet to start, thought I might complete the set, but is €30 too much?

Retr0gamer

It usually goes for a god bit more. It's also supposedly the best in the series.

richymcdermott

Alright guys i have abit of a confession to make , I have been trolling on numerous occansions to get a rise or laugh.

I dont actually think super metroid is over rated , i actually love the game though couldnt beat it cause of that stupid ridley :mad:

I also dont think sonic adventure is better than mario 64 , actually stated in the past that mario 64 is the superior game in every way and it deserves the critical acclaim it deserves. alot of it is based on preference and also the fact i never gave mario 64 the proper go , but watching a pro player do some of the **** i saw on youtube , its clear the level design in mario is flawless.

I do not think sonic lost world will be better than mario galaxy, It would actually be impossible for any team To top the galaxy games.

I dont dislike the mario kart games , i actually quite enjoyed mario kart 7 on the 3ds.


Thought i clear things up before my image on this site end up like the guys over on deviant art :pac:

Jack burton

I gave up on adverts a long time ago

But the odd time I still take a look and see if there's anything worthwhile but usually never is. Ah **** like that just ruined it, people being money hungry and just general dickhead behaviour

But every time I ever met anyone for a sale person to person I always had the necessary "tools" to totally **** them up! Just what goes with the territory of meeting strangers

Thousand Year Door? Yeah it's a fabulous game. Also with the added bonus of being able to play it with the greatest controller ever made (/broken record). :cool:

I usually just loaded Atavan up on captain morgans and put him in a cage in my boot and poked him with a stick for a while......come to think of it, a lot of people just gave me the money/goods and ran away screaming

Finally a console capable of providing the graphical power of running the Amiga's flagship title!

I wonder how many layers of parallax scrolling it will have... going to be tough to beat the Amiga's 12!

That guy in Thailand has been selling them on ebay for the last year.
The consoles are Asian PAL and most of the MD games are the Asian versions apart from a few Jap versions. http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/getdomain/m.html?_nkw=&_armrs=1&_from=&_ipg=&_trksid=p3686


Someone on adverts had one of the consoles up for crazy money recently.

Sparks43

Gamestop doing games for €8.87

Starfox 64 3ds

Super Street Fighter 4

Pokemony gamey thingy 3ds

I just hope that the final boss will be a giant foot and hand with club that you can kill by clipping his toenail, as before.

Spent an hour or two jamming on GTA: London tonight. I've got to had, I had an absolute blast with it.

CiDeRmAn

Isn't it a bugger when you know when you walk into work in the morning, it's going to be a clusterf**k of epic proportions, and that's before anything else happens?
That's the day I have to look forward to tomorrow
Better make sure the handhelds are charged, in case I need to bleed some pressure off with Hotline Miami, just as well you can't create custom maps...

Atavan-Halen

Remember to breathe, and keep the violence for the video games!

Apparantly the auditor walked into work yesterday so all the managers will be in a flap today.

MrVestek

Very tempted to pick up one of those Pal Asian Megadrives...

Would it be worth sticking them in a wardrobe for a few years to allow them to accrue value?

Kenjataimu

I read somewhere they are a lighter quality build than your normal MD.
I was tempted myself but I've seen mixed reviews about the quality of the packaging he posts them in.
Someone got one packed in a tight cardboard box surround, if you get me. So it wouldn't take much abuse.
I haven't read the listing for ages but I think he'll pack them better if you pay a bit extra for postage.

There is a unboxing video on youtube... Actually I think he has linked to it on the actual listing last time I looked. I'm on my phone so I can't check .

Atavan-Halen

Don't they also output 50hz?

DinoRex

Got auditor woes here as well.... what a horrible line of work that is to get into...

Also, have I ever shown you guys the pizza place in Coolock Village?

Atavan-Halen

That's a very rotund mario! My local chipper is called mario bros. pizza, using an image of mario too.

Nerdkiller1991

Very good pizzas in there actually. Although my father's ex girlfriend from 60 years ago works there.

Hey, Atavans "I can get you pregnant" ad is gone but I have a, frankly, surprised older gentleman advertising Alzheimer's, why? Is it on sale or something? I can't seem to remember myself.....

I've decided that I'm going to restart a bunch of games that I sunk lots of time into in the past but never actually beat. First up is Tomb Raider: The Last Revelation.

Well, don't go for any games from the Atari 2600. Most of those never end.

True. I have the games the games in mind that I'm going to takle. Pretty much stuff from the PS1 and PS2 era.

johnny_ultimate

Last time I played an original Tomb Raider game (10 years ago, I'd estimate) it was already awkwardly outdated. I'm sure the pixel perfect jumping mechanics have only matured with age
