Navy, I've got like 4 NES controllers just sitting around....... we had like three nintendos when I was a kid.... We bought one and inherited two later on. If you need, I'll send them to you only for the cost of postage.

Whooohoo!! Just got Street Fighter Anniversary Collection!!

wow Ang. I didn't know it existed, sounds like the coolest streetfighter ever.

Street Fighter Anniversary Collection

It is good but for me its missing the Street Fighter Alpha games, they were my fave. Heck for a "Anniversary Collection" you'd expect every street fighter!! Like Street Fighter EX etc etc

Plus what really pisses me off is the fact that the XBOX version of the same game has ONLINE SUPPORT!!! How cool would that have been!! But why only Xbox??????????

I'm gonna be busying playing these babies!!

I've just sipped the taste of arcade perfect quality Killer Instinct... which of the 2000+ games should I dip into next... Mmmm emualation never tasted so GOOD!!!!

(Sorry for the cheesy-ness of this post lol)

Ah, Gauntlet. Such an excellent retro game. I still enjoy the PS2 game, Dark Legacy, on at least a weekly basis.

GREEN JESTER NEEDS FOOD BADLY!

Hey Angelus, what did you think of all this?

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/leic ... 936597.stm

It's not just Manhunt they want banned, it's also many games which could influence the younger audience. Grand Theft Auto, Doom 3, Mafia, ect... Well they had best not. I don't mind about Manhunt but the others are staying. We don't get many decent games like this anymore.

Angelus3K · #436 Post by **Angelus3K** » Sun Aug 01, 2004 1:04 pm

Yea that sucks but it actually said on the news that the kid that did it wasnt mentally stable anyway. Plus his parents shouldnt of let him play a game that was 18 certificate.

At least its still available anyway its only Dixons, Curry's, PC World and Game that have banned it you can still get it from places like HMV, Virgin, WHSmith etc etc

I'm gonna build one of those MAME arcade cabinets for my game room. It's gonna be sweet. I've got an old Golden Axe cabinet, with the actual board ROM inside of it and stuff, but it hasn't worked in a while and I'm too lazy to fix it. So I'm gonna strip the guts, sell them on EBAY, and buy a cheap PIII, a monitor, and load a computer up with MAME, NESTICLE and other various emulators, and build an all purpose arcade cabinet! HOW SWEET IS THAT!?!!?!?

All I can say is that is so cool. Oh, and you have way too much time on your hands.

Angelus3K · #439 Post by **Angelus3K** » Mon Aug 02, 2004 8:37 pm

Cant wait for THIS game!!

Those too lazy to click its Ultimate Spiderman: The Game!!!

Angelus3K · #440 Post by **Angelus3K** » Sun Aug 08, 2004 6:21 pm

Deb and I just bought Eyetoy!!!!!

We rented it a few months ago and just got around to buying it!!!

I can also use the Eyetoy USB Camera as a webcam on the PC w00t!!!

Angelus3K · #441 Post by **Angelus3K** » Tue Aug 17, 2004 4:31 pm

WWE: Day of Reckoning looks cool, you can tell it uses the same PS2 Smackdown engine, looks fun to play though, but I think Smackdown Vs Raw will take the crown especially if online play is officaly announced!!

Broomie · #442 Post by **Broomie** » Tue Aug 17, 2004 5:27 pm

Yeah I'm def. getting it. PS2 peeps keep bashing it because of Smackdown vs Raw, but DOR does look really good. It still has some more secrets to unveil when the game is released end of August.

Also, my brother bought online gaming for Socam Navy Seals 2. So that means when Smackdown vs Raw comes out we can finally battle it out.

Angelus3K · #443 Post by **Angelus3K** » Tue Aug 17, 2004 6:06 pm

w00t! But THQ still need to offically announce online play though, personally I think its too good to be true or if it does happen it wont be what its expected to be or it will be crap.

Broomie · #444 Post by **Broomie** » Wed Aug 18, 2004 11:05 am

Yeah, I bet something stupid like you can't do big matches like Hell in a Cell or Elimination Chamber, or you can't use CAWs.

We'll just have to wait and see.

Skyshark · #445 Post by **Skyshark** » Wed Aug 18, 2004 11:41 am

I put down a pre-order for GTA: San Andreas today. Should be expecting to pick it up in about October. I only hope they don't censor out too much for the Aussie release.

<grumbles about OFLC not having an R+ rating for such games when they need them>

Rambaldi0503 · #446 Post by **Rambaldi0503** » Wed Aug 18, 2004 1:33 pm

You can preorder GTA: San Andreas already?

KKuhlman · #447 Post by **KKuhlman** » Wed Aug 18, 2004 1:36 pm

Atleast here in Finland you can preorder it already. Actually its been possible here for some time already.

Some places like Electronics Boutique take preorders (that's where I've placed mine). Look around and you might a store in your area that take pre-orders for you.

It's just that I didn't realize it was coming outi n October. I've been sleeping too much apparently! Hahaha.

Angelus3K · #450 Post by **Angelus3K** » Wed Aug 18, 2004 3:59 pm

I too have got my connection ready for the pre-order download mwhahahhaaa!! It will probably get leaked early onto the net aswell

BUT when the PAL version comes out I am going to buy it too

EDIT: Hey Broomie whats going on!? IGN just confirmed the Final Roster for S v R but how comes there is no Rock??

Has he left WWE?? I aint watched it for ages so that will be a shock if he has left...

EDIT 2: Just checked wwe.com and he is still in WWE but is too busy making films, but I cant believe they didnt put him in the game!! He has been the main wrestler in every Smackdown game!!!

EDIT 3: Well... I guess I can make a badass CAW of The Rock...
