It sounds completely logical to offer less for an incomplete game as opposed to a complete game. I don't understand people who lose game cases and manuals. Even when I was a kid, I took care of my stuff. I did not keep all of my NES boxes because they were made of cardboard and fragile. Today...

I went to a used game store and was disappointed by how many used games were missing the original cases, artwork, and manuals. I prefer my games to be complete and will not even consider a game if it is missing the original case and artwork. I often will turn down a game if it is even missing...

It seems the cost of attending any major university continues to increase while starting salaries for recent college graduates continue to decrease. I spoke  with a human resource professional a couple of weeks ago. She reported it is very common for recent college graduates in 2016 to accept...

It must have all been in my head. Apparently there is no such thing as a PS4 greatest hits lineup. This thread has zero responses and I did not see a single PS4 game with a 'Greatest Hits' icon at Best Buy, Target, or Toys R Us.

I just heard about the PS4 Greatest Hits lineup less than 20 minutes ago. This is big news, but I cannot find much at all online. The Playstation website does not mention the new PS4 Greatest Hits roster. There are no Youtube videos, no television commercial, nothing. It is very strange for such...

My mistake. I should have proofed my message more carefully. I surely do look like a dumbass. I probably would not be so harsh on the customer service reps, but time after time I get poor customer service at retail stores. I think Sears is the absolute worst. Wal Mart customer service is...

I have had my PS3 since about 2008 and have had no problems with it. I take care of my stuff. I now have over 40 PS3 games and know that eventually the system will fail. I want to buy a backup system with intentions of using it after my well kept PS3 dies. This could be next year or it could be...

My PSone displays a colorless, scrambled screen and I cannot understand why. I have not played my PSone in several months, probably close to a year. I've always remembered it to work. I keep all games and televisions unplugged while not in use to safeguard against an electrical shock. I set up...

I have a few questions: 1. I no longer see PSP systems on retail shelves. Has the PSP been discontinued? If so, when? 2. Are all PSP-3000 systems identical, or do some have built-in Wi-Fi while others do not? 3. Will the pack-in battery eventually die, even if left in original untampered...

Just a regular battery, but the trick is that it needs to be made by SONY. I can buy knock-offs from China that will last an hour or two and die all day long from Ebay. I need a permanent fix.

I just called another two Gamestops. I asked if they had in stock a Sony PSP battery. The first told me 'I don't know' and left it at that. In my opinion, that was pretty crappy customer service. The second told me to go to Amazon. I only see one first party battery on Amazon, and it's $130...

Where can I find a FIRST PARTY Sony PSP battery for my 3000 series PSP? Ebay is FLOODED with fakes from China. The only first party Sony batteries I can find on Ebay are used. Why would anyone buy or sell a USED battery? I need a NEW battery. I called serveral Gamestops, all whom claim to carry...

The 3DO was expensive at launch, but prices fell sharply after 1996. I bought my 3DO at Best Buy for $89 in late 1996 as the system was being discontinued. The Sony Playstation was $300 at the time. I could not afford a $300 console, but I could afford an $89 console. At lanuch, the 3DO was...

I used to have a 3DO from 1996 until 1998. I saw it as the 'poor man's playstation'. I was a poor kid back then. MSRP on the Sony Playstaion was $300 and games were $50 to $60. This was long before $20 greatest hits and a $50 cap were introduced. I bought my 3DO from Best Buy in late 1996 for...

What is the best video streaming service and why? I am looking for: quality movie selection television series High definition picture little to no buffer time low cost I have an internet speed that varies between 4 mb and 6 mb per second. The Internet provider (Earhlink) describes this as...
