Im debating this summer maybe have a Saturn bomberman party (10 player) with food and drinks. Would there be people interesting in coming if I do this?

Yes, but not for a while now. Full disclosure is I'm planning on doing a complete (when the hell did they open one in Naperville?) circuit this Sunday on the 50% off sale. Promised my wife we'd hit any nearby malls and whatnot too. If I see anything standout, I might post here, altho I don't like using forums on my phone, tapatalk be damned.

I really should make an effort to come to a physical meetup one of these days. I'm a perpetual maybe.

I'm cool with that.

*Raises hand* I'm at that one a lot. Usually can find good stuff there, but it's hit or miss.

Any word on C2E2 discount tickets?

Son of a bitch! The Play N Trade in Naperville closed! Can't even pick the bones at a going-out-of-business sale.

Los Bulls!!

Bulls!!!!!!!

Does anyone happen to be near the Gamestop on Cicero Ave? There is a $10 game I am looking for at these stores and I am willing to give $25 to cover the cost of game, S&H costs and gas/time.

Hope someone can help me.

Geez. Great guy. My only complaint of him was that he said video games weren't art. Other than that I have all the respect in the world of him. God rest his soul.

R.I.P., Rog. Definitely one of my fav writers ever.

I had a love/hate relationship. One way, natch. I always liked Siskel better.


I came across a review of this place on Yelp; anybody ever been there?

I've never heard of it, but that page lead me to 3 other spot that maybe cool too.

Oh, ignite network is at a new location? I've never been there, but I noticed where they used to be(Clybourn and Western), the building was torn down completely. Never saw anyone in there all the times I drove by, I wondered how they stayed in business. Also, the Underground Retrocade is supposed to be legit. Galloping Ghost often sends their "pros" over there, and they've run co-promoted competitions with each other.

Haven't been to the new location, but I've tried the Rock Band studio at the old location. Consoles for multiplayer (Black Ops, BlazBlue) & PCs for whatever's popular (be it StarCraft II or whatnot). Got promo e-mails about StarCraft tournaments & Steel Series peripherals, so it seems they're doing well for themselves. Plenty of kids when I stopped by on that evening, too (associated multi-hour promos seem to abound).

RIP Elbert...NWI CAG here. Nice to meet you all!!!

Hi Cags. Anyone have a SNES for sale? I recently picked up Killer Instinct and I looking for for system.
