My money in the last couple of years has been spent on "adventure flights" in old military aircraft, with a flight often costing the price of new console for only 30 minutes in the air. :shock: It's a pretty expensive and only occasionally fulfilled hobby, and the range of aircraft to fly in is limi...

True ... here is a quote from Hamill from the WCIII authorized combat guide (Brady Games) O.K. that's good. I didn't know about that, so thanks Trev, for justifying my comments. :) As for the cut scenes in todays games, I find it amusing that so much effort goes to creating "realistic" graphics in ...

cause that was the best he could do? I think that was probably the most likely reason I also think some might have been under the idea that this was the next big thing, the stars/celebrities of a new media. But really if you consider the actors that participated in these types of games appearing in...

As much as I would like to know what your Tracy Scoggins from Snow Job, your Ginger Lynn Allen from Wing Commander III or even your Tamara E. Genest (don't forget the "E") from Way of the Warrior thought of their experiences in performing in the production of a 3do game, I somehow think it was somet...

I also purchased some games and a guide book off GameCubed. Communication was very good, prices were fair, descriptions accurate and the parcel was fantastically organized and secure. :D All discs worked in my FZ-1 (PAL).

I don't really like strategy games or RPG's, to me they are fiddly and too long and boring. But in a desert island disc situation they would possibly be something to while the time away. I have started playing Syndicate but never finished it so this would be one of them. :) Fighters being one of my ...

I loved it but I got stuck and I've never finished it. Me to. It was the second example of a puzzle where you had to ensure the lines didn't cross or something. From my memory, logically it didn't seem like it could be done, so I was assuming it was some type of bug in the game that would let me th...

My parents got one for their grandkids for Christmas. It was an all out gamesfest for about 4 weeks, the kids racking up to 11 hour play times (with breaks of course) for days on end and then... nothing. My daughter asked to play the Xbox(original) the other day. I told her what about the Wii you go...

Austin, Patience and luck on eBay has only seen my collection grow, but it naturally competes with 3do stuff, as well as Neo Geo Pocket and Dreamcast stuff and my waning interests. :P FYI I have never seen Civilization on Ebay, or Warhammer 40,000 for that matter.

The one and only mobile/cell phone I have had is an original N-gage, which I still use to this day. I still have the original "disposable scratch proof" sticker on the screen, which I have never removed. So effectively the screen underneath is pretty much mint. :) I get suprised looks when people se...

I love this game and have played it through many, many, many times. One thing I did note last time I played it. You know how once you get to a certain rank, you can't go any further until, you fight a sub-boss, be it Balkan, Tesla, Fly or the others! Anyway with my copy of the game if I try to play ...

U.T. No, I know what you mean. I'm only just getting into the KoF universe, but my favorite character is Leona (don't know how much respect/venom she garners in the KoF community). However it appears alot of her specials are charge moves, which I can't pull off very well, so I'm not that good at it....

In my experience I find Sega have the most reliable and indestructible consoles ever made! Try telling that to my Dreamcast. 8 years of regularly fixing the "Resetitis" it developed after 2 years of normal operation, to last week when I think it finally gave up. Now I can't even get the "Dreamcast ...
