Keep Calm And Discuss Retro Generally!

Maybe because I dunno who Lloyd Kaufman was or his films but thought that AVGN ep was funny

Retr0gamer

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes cartoon was great. Pity it didn't last long.

I got my Xbox online for an hour or two yesterday (first time in about a year), so I downloaded ALL the demos!

Dark Souls is still broken for the PS3 even after 24 hours of server maintenance yesterday.

Guess I have to wait for a new patch.

Almost done now though. Only 1 more lord soul to get. But I want to try and find the Great Hollow next and then maybe tackle the DLC.

Just finished Bioshock Infinite, what a wonderful ending, brilliant stuff...
Now to trade the bugger in! Need to get some Vita games!

Just think, you could then trade those Vita games in to buy Bioshock Infinite in a few weeks :P

Second the criticism of the latest AVGN episode, its the first time I've ever had to fast forward and eventually turn an episode off

A lot of the recent stuff hasn't been quite on par with the older vids, I suppose thats to be expected when he's working on the bigger projects like the movie etc. But this one was an absolute stinker of an ep, it seemed more like "hey look who I have sitting here" rather than an AVGN episode

Has the movie come out yet? I nearly died from embarrassment when I saw the trailer!

I could ban you, but you'd just unban yourself...
Have you had the experience of having yourself reported to you yet?
It's all a bit "meta" tbh.

And, I will get it again, but when the DLC is out and it's worth picking up again.
Right now, I'm done, and it's worth €30 quid on trade pretty much everywhere, bar Xtravision...

Had I been a bit quicker I could have traded it in with Xtravision, got €30 quids worth of stuff, then waited til today and bought it back for a tenner!

The DRP thread would be the real meta head-melter

RGB into one of the back RGB scart sockets. Job done.

Theyre dirt cheap too.

Retr0gamer

Damn, got outbid on this. However won it got a bargain it's probably the hardest gameboy game to find in the wild:

You still need to get a RGB cable or a component. I mean what the hell are you doing strolling into this forum and admitting you use composite cables. That could get you killed unless it's a famicom AV mod.

I was never a fan of the game, but downloaded the free Carmageddon app last night for ****s and giggles. Have to laugh at how farcically wrong they got the touchscreen UI:

So, System Shock 2 is on Steam now, so why isn't anyone talking about it here? And don't give me the excuse of wanting to go to sleep.

CiDeRmAn

Oh, no one here likes System Shock 2...... ahem....

The Last Bandit

We all got it from GOG a couple of months ago

DinoRex

Yep. Much rather support GOG over Steam.

Los Lobos

Just picked up a few ps1 games in a charity shop there, they also had a load of bootlegs, and some of them were labelled things like 'super 4-in-1' or something like that. Worth picking up, or still just worthless boots does anyone know? Cheers

Retr0gamer

All bootlegs are pretty much worthless.
