    Speaking of complete Zelda collections.. ;_; I will be getting one of the last ones I need in the post soon.

    Just Spirit Tracks is all. I think all I need after that is Majora's Mask 3DS remake and I've got them all, not CIB though for a lot of them. >__> The CDI ones are excluded from the list. :L

    Oh Spirit Tracks is so bad.

    I drive the Zelda mad gf mental when I try to convince her that Spirit Tracks is reasonable.

    A Link Between Worlds is fairly savage, started it yesterday

    Haha I hear it's alright if you didn't play Phantom Hourglass, as it's more or less the same thing. :L But sure it's just for the collection. And I will eventually look into the other games but so long as I get all the EU releases, save maybe the CD-i ones for now, I'll consider myself happy. ;)

    Hold on now, someone managed to acquire a broadcast tape of the Star Wars Holiday Special and uploaded it onto YouTube?

    So the powered cable actually arrived today. Worked a charm so that one is sorted. Also came with an English framemeister remote overlay as a bonus which might just be more useful :)

    Where did you get that cable from, by the way?

    Man, new AVGN videos suck. No charm, all shouting, he's almost become a parody of himself.

    Yeah it was awful. Always liked his reviews but once he goes into skit territory it's cringe central and just awful stuff.

    I haven't been watching just the other videos like Monster Madness and some of the Monday play videos. I prefer other stuff like Previously Recorded, Adum Plaze and Brutal Moose.

    You're ****ing right I'm watching that.

    It seems once a lot of these online personalities hit their stride, they inevitably indulge in some performance arts nonsense. It does tend to bring in the viewers, mind.

    In fairness it's what made him and a large majority of his fan base want more of it. It's always asked about at conventions etc so he's just giving his fans what they ask for.

    Personally I rather when he's himself doing proper reviews of just doing the likes of James and Mike Monday's although I find Mike can be a bit of a know it all bollix. I like bootsy. Seems like a decent bloke.

    Same, I liked his Bootsy plays for how to play Battletoads, he's very relaxed.

    I already bought some games for myself and posted them. Usually ask for boring/practical stuff like a new chair and a fold away table for crafting. No idea what my friends got me.
