Sweet.

Crap, can I say nothing? Dead Space at $30 would be the winner if I didn't already have it. Otherwise... the only thing I'm looking for this holiday season is a 360 Arcade Pack for my brother. (He's only ever going to play one or two games, so he doesn't need the hard drive.)

Wow, I wish this had been front-paged sooner. I just ordered straight-up from Amazon (didn't want the Lancer, not at that price); I could have gotten a freebie! Side note: FYI, the spelling is gypped, because the root of the term is "Gypsy." People who are Gypsy (or descended from) will...

As I posted in previous entries (and it hasn't changed because new releases have been siphoning off my discretionary spending): Call of Duty 4, Lego Indiana Jones, and Lost Odyssey. Maybe Gears of War for my brother or Viva Pinata: Trouble In Paradise for my wife...

I never did get Call of Duty 4 (for the single player) or Lost Odyssey. My wife would like Viva Pinata: Trouble In Paradise, and my brother Gears of War...

Anecdotally, I think many CAGs got "cheap" because they are insane collector types. (Not unlike me.) So it's not that we aren't willing to spend some money; it's that we are so high-consumption we're forced to find creative ways to add to our collections without breaking the bank. One of the...

Getting cleaned out thanks to Goozex, but I've got a few desperate wants so here's my first bump in a while.

I see now. The problem is, you wrote this: If I read plaing as "playing," I would have given you a more useful response. I read it as "planning," as in, you were planning on buying an HDTV. Also, since the Wii should be able to do 480p and you say the picture quality is 480i, that implied...

You're getting an HDTV that only does 480i? I don't think 480i or even 480p is technically HDTV , it's EDTV. That Wikipedia link will allude to why you want component cables If you can't easily afford component cables, you are not yet in a place financially to buy a new television. I would...

Hi... you noticed I have Uncharted: Drake's Fortune too, right? The only things I want on your list are PS1 games: FFChronicles and FF7. Maybe we can work something out there?

Bump with a couple of updates.

As I said above, video games are an awful investment. "Gamble" is a better word. If you want to make an investment, buy stock, put the money into a high-yield bank account, or buy something with a better chance of appreciating quickly. If you look at even the really desirable classic games...

Bump with even more added awesomeness.

AWESOME taste in music, man. (I should put my Zune card in my sig, too.) Welcome To Goodbye is one of my favorite albums. Is your username a reference to B! Machine, the band? I'm maybe interested in any of these: :ps3: Call of Duty 4 :360: Stranglehold :ds: Assassin's Creed Altair's...

The free market can be funny. Generally, some collectors care about getting "first runs" or "originals" to varying degrees, just as some care about whether a game is sealed, just like some care about whether there is a manual and cover art. If some people care enough, they can drive up the...

I'd rather trade, but I'll sell at roughly the going rate on eBay.
