I do have a wife called Rez so that makes up for it I think

Several jokes about that spring to mind but, in light of recent news events, they take a "Trumpish Hue"* so I won't be using them.


*as opposed to a "Trump Hue" which is cheeto orange, as we all know.

Myrddin leaves, Ciderman turns down a Carry On 'Oooh Matron' moment, I edge closer and closer to 96 exits, these truly are the end times!

Havent gotten anything A&R at all recently,
This ticks both boxes!!







Very fresh for 1982,

Would have to cut the side art to properly fix them but I'll get it going with a bodge and have a game.
more eye candy than anything anyways

Cheap PlayStation TV incoming, only €16 as it has no power supply, happily it will use my PSP psu so no worries.
Only thing I want it for is TxK so that'll look sweet on the TV.
I know it pairs up with a PS3 controller, it'll be interesting to see if I can get my wireless PS3 controller work with it for arcadey kicks.

That's a really good price, what do they normally go for? I'd get one myself if I found it for similar.
Is it region to an account region like Vita?

CiDeRmAn

Same as Vita, so region issues the same too.
They are around €50/60 in the shops, if you can find them, around €25 if on Adverts, which is where I found mine.
I lowballed for €22, and he accepted, but then he lost the psu, so I offered a reduced price, as I knew I had a compatible psu at home.
TxK is the only game I want it for, and it is a stunning title.
Wipeout is the only other, and it isn't compatible, unless you do the hack thingy, and in that case you'll need a certain firmware and not to need the PS Store again, at least until they come up with a more permanent custom firmware for the device.

Shows you how out of the Playstation loop I am, I thought you meant one of these;

CiDeRmAn

Ha! But... no...
More recent is the 3D led flat panel TV that they released with the 3D gaming update for the PS3.
A nice display but the screen is way too reflective, hindering comfortable use.

CiDeRmAn

More non retro-ness from me
Picked up Bioshock the collection, for my PS4, for the sum of €24.99!
And from those [sarcasm] purveyors of gaming value GameStop! [/sarcasm]

Burzum

The Syndicate Plus,Cannon Fodder(The reason i bought the bundle),Shadow of Darkness,Duke Nukem,Police Quest Open Season,Guilty,Amazon Queen,Lure of the Temptress,Black Dahlia,Populous 2,Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade,Broken Sword and the Riddle of Master Lu.

Love the soundtrack to TMS, one of the best I have heard for a while.

I remember seeing gameplay before it was out and loved how bright it was, so I'll probably wait til it's a bit darker it'll be a brighten up the evenings. Really looking forward to it.

80s Synth Pop

Took an Ebay gamble on this one. The seller had a stock photo up but description said excellent condition.

Title is Bakuretsu Muteki Bangaioh. It was one of my favourite N64 games back in the day. A limited run of 10000 in Japan. Excellent 2D shooter from Treasure. Had to use Doctor V64 back then to play it, great to have the real thing now.

The dreamcast release was similar but on N64 you collected fruit to build up your power bar in contrast to the dreamcast where you shoot buildings to build it up. Preferred the N64 mechanics personally.



Near mint condition




Title Screen





GET SOME!!



Eh WTF????

This is easily explained by two words, "Japanese Exclusive".

CiDeRmAn

It did get a western release on DC remember.
And the puzzley sequel on the DS as well.
Not sure if the wtf cutscene made the journey though!

What setup are you using there? RGB mod on a flat crt?

Framemeister on a curved tv if I was to guess. Could be totally wrong though. Looks great regardless.

The Last Bandit

Hoovering up loads of PS3 & XBOX 360 titles in CEX these days, some really good stuff for a couple of €

Retr0gamer

The problem with the latest consoles is I've been keeping up relatively well with them so there's feck all I want and anything else half decent isn't worth bothering with.

I've fallen way behind on my Vita and 3DS collection. Really need to pick up a lot of games for them but it's not helping that the press being as terrible as it is now is totally ignoring these systems and only covering big name games.
