    Late afternoon grail GET!

    I cried when I paid for this (and it wasn't tears of joy). I actually sobbed uncontrollably. :(

    I might have a deal done on something a bit different. If it is what I think it is anyway!

    Such mystery. Such guess. So confuse. Wow.

    I think one of the guys over on AO imports them, or ships them from Japan for you(he might be based there).

    I've never seen one before. No one has but I'm guessing it's a white hole.

    Doubled my boxed Vita collection this morning. Got it from amazon, under a tenner when you include the PM fee, great bargain compared to 40 on PSN.

    So, what is my mystery GET? Why it's a PS2 of course!

    4C8D99EE-E204-4E5A-89C3-50E69842397E_zpstyn4dath.jpg

    Now, why would I want a PS2 you ask? Well, I spotted it on adverts, just being advertised as a PS2 with 6 games, but I noticed something about the games that wasn't the norm. Specifically the title of one of them.

    69097A9A-31BA-4959-9F38-E43EECD66A38_zpsbywtvgsb.jpg

    They were all NTSC games, and the genesis collection caught my eye. So I was thinking it's either a modded PS2 or a NTSC one, and sure enough it's an NTSC PS2. Was hoping it was modded but I'm still happy with it. Plus the seller was literally 2 minutes away from me so no hassle to pick it up.

    Came with 2 controllers, the console, a memory card and the six games and all for €50. So now I can start to buy some NTSC PS2 games and play American DVDs which is nice :) I realise that I've probably built it up to more than it is :P

    You should get a cheap Raiden 3 from the US for that, as well as the original Katamari Damacy, seeing as we only got the semi sequel.

    Also got my Oculus Rift today.
    (I was at home so good timing!)
    had a quick blast

    W0W!
    Very 3D
    Much motions
    So impressives
    Such vomiting*


    *Not really

    Actually after about 40 mins I did get motion sick , a little bit..tbh the the big thing for me was the " woah ,wheres my keyboard gone?!?" effect I got in the the tuscanny demo a few minutes in..definitely one to ease into I think.

    Can't stand that game. EA basically just ripped off FFX right down to the battle system but didn't really understand how to utilise the battle system in an interesting manner.
