    I don't know if this is still available - 33" 4:3 CRT, complete with stand.

    I got one of these recently, and it's fab. It's like the monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. While playing I noticed things like jerky diagonal scrolling in Guardian force that I never noticed before.

    That's scary...
    Tempted to go get it, but I don't think it'd fit up the stairs!
    Plus, the Sony 29" would be très jelly

    As a 45 year old gentleman I'd feel a tad uncomfortable playing a Kim Possible game... now, where did I leave that copy of Senran Kagura Burst???

    Crappy game but the monitor looks like it might be worth it.

    39" tri res acording to the manufacturer.
    massive bastard.

    To avoid turning this thread into a rolling marketplace :D ask a question on the Adverts thread or PM me here (if that's ok with the modz) :)

    I'd love to get a few more bits off you. It will be a few weeks before I have more cash though.

    Hope there's a few NTSC SNES games left by then

    The Recreated Spectrum available for 30 quid (pounds). Not my cup of tea, but a decent option for emulation when it's unlocked.

    http://www.game.co.uk/en/m/the-recreated-sinclair-zx-spectrum-2050251

    Cheapest I've seen it anyway.

    Edit: Here's a link to unlock it if you get one:

    https://spectrumforeveryone.com/technical/unlock-recreated-spectrum/


    Oh, and this offer is only on for today and tomorrow.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    One of these beauties is available on Adverts,
    A PS2 TEST console.
    And listed for €170, so some wiggle room there perhaps.

    Fyi this device is region free, for both PS and PS2 games, perfect for the importer.

    Just spotted and now downloading Raiden V for the XB1.
    I'm posting this fact up because it's a steal at €7 for the next few days, before it goes back to €29.99.

    Of Raiden V?
    Cool.
    I have Raiden IV Overkill for the PS3, unfortunately it's just not as good as Raiden or Raiden 2, and not fit to wash the feet of Raiden DX

    A PC/PS4 and a Switch has you modern gaming ready.
    The poor XB1 doesn't know it's already dead.
    I have to find reasons to use mine, backwards compatible games are possibly the only reason, there is nothing 1st party worth owning on it.

    Well Rare Replay is an absolute bargain as is Halo Master Chief collection. Halo 5 I heard is a load of hairy arse.

    Rare Replay isn't quite the collection of stone cold classics it might have been a decade ago.
    Their slavish attention to detail is great but games like Jet Force Gemini really fall down on their antiquated and bonkers control set, almost unplayable.
    Blastcorps is still legend though.
    Halo:MCC is great value but Halo 5 is all over too quickly, and the Spartans have weird giant heads.
    There was a time when, for console FPS, Halo was where it was at (aside from Firewarrior of course)
    But now we have so much to choose from, Doom, Wolfenstein making amazing comebacks and the myriad of FPS titles worth our time both AAA and from indie studios.
