Recent pick-ups which I have been very pleased about, especially as a load of them were from using the credit at Game. :D

I hear that Mega Drive compilation is overrated

Turned out that pre-owned copy of Mass Effect 3 I just bought contained an unused Online Pass Code. So a big "FUNK YOU" to EA! :lol:
I'm robbing their server space and there's not a damn thing they can do about it! :P :P

I used to love Movie. Loved the air of mystery around it. Have you got a picture?


Of the box or an ingame screenshot?

There are plenty online! :wink:

It is mad! The storyline and dialogue is the King of so-bad-it's-good but the gameplay itself? Well...just be glad you got 'em cheap!

I did a review of the game here if you're interested.
Ha ha ca't wait to give it a go, the videos I've seen of the game reflect your view perfectly! There's is real entertainment in playing ropey games sometimes!!

Done very well this week!

Got Super Mario Deluxe and Race Pro 360 through the post as part of the random niceness thread.

Bought four XBox 360 games in Cash Generator yesterday: Viva Pinata/Forza Motorsport 2, Forza Motorsport 3 and 2010 FIFA World Cup for a grand total of just £1.23! FIFA was 25p, the others were 49p. Brilliant! Also picked up Rage Racer on the PSone at the same time for 99p.

Got a delivery of XBox games from Amazon Marketplace: OutRun 2, Burnout 3 and Timesplitters 2. About £6.50 altogether.

Also just ordered Bit.Trip Saga on 3DS from ShopTo, on sale for £15.85.

Got myself a Game Gear along with G-Loc and Sonic. I'm looking forward to finally trying out Game Gear games. I might get the master system converter too.

Apologies for the quality of the photo - I've been experimenting with a camcorder I bought for £10 and this was the BEST out of the three pics I took!

Total spend - £1.66!

Got Kid Icarus on the way. Was only £22.95 from thehut.com

also waiting on some AR Cards from Club Nintendo. Now all i need is Tales of the Abyss and Cave Story 3d (for a reasonable price) and i will be a happy chappy with my 3DS.

if i manage to sell some of my gear on ebay i want to get a NTSC PS2 so that i can finally play Front Mission 4. Anywhere decent other than ebay for this sort of thing? shipping seems to be pretty hefty most of the time from the US
