    I got Rayman Origins and Lumines for the PSVita today, cant stop playing wipeout on it though. I actually think the vita is a great hand held, its much better than the 3DS. the launch games on it so far are great.

    I think its just you and me who feel like that Keith.
    Doesn't seem to be any vita love round these parts ;)

    Wipeout is a load of fun on it to be sure.

    Got these in the post via infideals this morning

    photo3pr.jpg

    I had all these issues as a kid, I even remember specific pieces of features, they're so burned into my memory from reading and re-reading them. Brillunt.

    They smell like they've been in an attic for 20 years though.

    That gamegear will 100% need a cap kit done to it. So unless your soldering skills are up to scratch, it wouldn't be worth your while to get anyway. Tempting as it is and all!

    I was the one who offered €40 for the 3 boxed games, I was going to offer €100, but i thought that offering over the €40 was against the rules, turns out offering €40 for the 3 games is also against the rules.

    Hopefully he pulls the ad and gets what it's worth

    Offering €40 for three games would have been okay if the person before you didn't offer €40 for everything. (Turns it into a bidding war which isn't allowed)

    How adverts works basically is that the first person who offers the asking price gets it.

    The only rule you broke really was offering asking after someone else already did. Nothing else you did was wrong.

    That's the danger of adverts. Once you put a price down on your ad, you can't have people offer over it. That lot was clearly worth at least €100 and if you bought it from it at that, it would have been very fair. But you couldn't offer that based on the rules.

    Silly system really.

    Unless the seller gets a PM with a better offer again. Didn't someone here get stung recently when they went to buy something but the seller decided to go with a higher private offer. Adverts is the wild west of trading these days it seems. :rolleyes:

    Yep!

    So if you're honest about it you're stuck, but if you're dishonest you can offer over.

    I rarely if ever buy anything there now. It's far too much trouble.

    The big difficulty with Adverts is that having made a deal there is no penalty for either side should the break it. yes there is user reputation but its so rarely used its not worthwhile.

    More bits arriving from the UK today (part of yesterday's haul). More to come hopefully tomorrow or by the end of the week. :)

    1. XBOX console. [PAL, CIB]
    Blame ondafly and Andrew76 for this. Looks in good nick. One controller, leads, instructions and tidy box. Now, what's the best way to mod one of these?
    Q0C9H.jpg

    2. Dynasty Warriors Gundam [XBOX 360, PAL, CIB]
    Already have this game for the 360 along with Dynasty Warriors Gundam 2 and 3. But the copy I have is a promo. This completes the retail set.

    Not sure if that's a piss take or some sort of OMGWTFLOLZ! (or if you mean, it's a PAL console and not NTSC-J :D) :pac:

    Just like to have my consoles boxed if possible. Trust me though, didn't pay over the odds for it either. :)

    its an XBOX. It doesn't count. :D

    Now, if it was a Famicom or a Master System or similar... Its why I glitched my 360. Not fussed with either.

    Need to mod it now. I have no PC to softmod it though...

    So, how do I go about altering an Xbox 360 so I can play Raiden Fighters or one of the other excellent Japan only shooters? How much would such a.package, machine + mod, cost?
    All this vert shooting is getting me addicted!

    Just had a gawk at them on Youtube, Aladdin looks pretty impressive on GBA. Cool music to Rush N' Attack.

    @Ciderman: TouchingVirus seems to be the main man for glitching 360s.
