Don't let the thread police bother you. So what if this deal has shown up in some thread before? If they're already aware of this deal, they should just ignore it. I'm sure there are plenty of others like me who only casually browse the forum and who don't catch every deal as soon as it's...

That whole "fiasco" was worth it just to watch the enormous over-reaction. Loads of fun. I didn't realize people were still holding a grudge over it, though. IMHO, GOG is a wonderful site for old games that deserves our support for providing a great service to nostalgia-fueled gamers...

I'm slowly working my way through the backlog of RPG's. Who knows if I'll ever make it through them all. Currently I'm working on Shadow Hearts: From the New World. I didn't like it the first time I tried it, but this time I'm enjoying it for what is instead of hating because it wasn't what I...

Lionheart isn't bad if you only play the Barcelona part. Just ignore any impulse you have to play past that part.

The local FYE has some, yes. The fact that those PS1 games are still there after all this time should give you an indication of the quality involved. I don't think I could force myself take any of them even if FYE were giving them away.

Be warned about that free cone. I got one of those, but when I put it in my PS2 it completely screwed up my system.

Have you had someone look at it? It might be just a power supply problem.

Totally agree. Another benefit is longer life for your PS2. My fat PS2 is still going strong and I'm sure that the laser getting very little use is part of that. I can't tell you how many times I've read complaints about load times and then when I've played the game from the HDD there were no...

I was at TRU last week and saw it for $9.98.
