I'd kill for the first Big O box set. Hell, probably the second one, too. The first one just seems to be really hard to find. My guess, though, is that Bandai might eventually release both seasons in one set, so it's nothing too urgent.

Alright, scratch that; I went ahead and replaced it anyway.

Apparently EBGames has quit their "Trade 3 Games + PS2" trade-in deal, and just when my old PS2 is starting to give me minor problems. I guess since it and Gamestop are one in the same, that they wouldn't have any similar deals. However, are there any retail chains I'm not aware of that are...

Yeah, it definitely isn't looking as good as the Gamecube version. While I want to be part of the "graphics can take a back seat to gameplay" crew, it's just so hard to do when the Cube version established such a beautiful game. Adding to the fact that it sounds like the gameplay will indeed be...

I bought MGS3 months ago. Back in January, I believe. Anyway, if the problem I'm about to describe has to do with the disc itself, there's no way I can return it, but if any of you have had similar problems and found a way to fix it, I'd be grateful if you could mention it here. Anyway, for...

A select handful of my relatives don't know very much about me. If I went up to them and told them I was 22, getting ready to graduate from college in a year, there's a good chance they'd belive me. But, I digress. One Christmas, it was my dad's side of the family's turn to have Christmas over...

As has been said, Capcom sold the rights to Street Fighter to Capcom USA. It's funny to think about that; the series that really put Capcom on the map, and...they whore it out to the branch that made the wretched "Final Fight Revenge." As I've heard on other forums, Capcom recently polled...

Mitchum Gel hasn't been doing crap for me, though I've found that using undershirts prolongs the onset of the dreaded "faded armpit" in colored shirts. I'll have to give Old Spice and Axe a try. I've used Mitchum Gel for years, but if those will stop the sweating, then I'm all for trying...

Hmm...let's see...wow. With the exception of Shadow Man and games that offer a choice of a black character (FPS, fighting games, etc.), GTA:SA is only the second I've played with a prominent black character.

I've been in the same boat for a long time now; dying to play certain games (Naruto, Metal Slug 3, Ka 2, etc.), but not willing to shell out $300+ at once to get one. If it does prove to be able to play imports in some fashion, I'll definitely get one. If not, as long as my PS2 holds up, I...

Hey. thanks for bumping the topic. Hell, even I've forgotten to pre-order it just yet, so this is a good reminder to do so. And according to many, Katamari Damacy is flying off shelves. Let's hope that games like Chulip can do the same, and maybe, with the PS3 era (assuming no one wants to...

Call sacrelige all you want, but I thought (and still think) that the Vigilante 8 games beat the crap out of any of the Twisted Metal games. I just enjoyed the more realistic control, environments, and vehicles. Not to mention the cool soundtrack (which, as mentioned, could be "customized" on...

It's pretty hard to find in my area, but it's worth the purchase. It's a very fun game, but as said above, it does lose a bit of luster after a while. Personally, I'm going to play Tetris for a while until I get SPFIIT out of my system; then I'll go back to it.

It's one thing that they take shitty songs from today and have kids sing them; most of these songs were crime against humanity to begin with, and re-vocalizing them with a bunch of ten-year-old hacks only salts the wounds to the ears. What's glaringly shocking to me is that this shit is often...

Damn, is the "trade in x number of games, get y off" deal still going on? And will it work with GBA games? I'm sick of Fire Pro Wrestling, F-Zero Maximum, and LotR: TTT, and it'd be awful nice to be able to trade them in and get some value off Astro Boy: Omega Factor.
