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...

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...

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...

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...

I just bought an Xbox 360 with Forza 4 and Skyrim packaged together. The box has a sticker that reads 'Two Full Games'. However, I noticed my Forza 4 is an 'essentials collection'. Is this not the full, complete Forza 4 that I would normally get had I pulled one from store shelves for MSRP?

I went to the local video game store (3D Games) to browze their inventory. I was shocked at how high the prices were for 8-bit NES and 16-bit SNES games. I decided to bring in a few of my own for a quote. I went home and dug the very best games from my game room including Super Mario All Stars...

Does marriage automatically equate to being poor and always broke? I am currently single and have never been married. Every girl I've met has had no concept of personal budgeting, refused to get a job, and expected to be provided with a very high standard of living. Do most women fit this...

Is it just my imagination, or has classic gaming increased in popularity over the past few years? Classic gaming is defined as gaming on a platform prior to the current, dominant systems. As of the time of this post, classic gaming is defined as any console released prior to Xbox 360, PS3, or...

I was in Best Buy today and for a brief moment considered getting a Nintendo Wii. I questioned whether the system had built-in Wi-Fi and saw a notice that read 'This Will is not compatable with Gamecube games'. This leaves me with two questions: 1. When did the Wii do away with Gamecube...

I just bought a house and now keep my router/modem in a separate room from the Xbox 360. In the past, I lived in an apartment so small that everything was clustered together. Plugging the Xbox 360 directly to my router/modem was not a problem. Now, that is not the case. I now cannot go online...

Is the PSP 3000 still under production, or has it been discontinued? I plan to buy a backup of each of the current systems right before they are pulled from store shelves and are no longer available brand new. The PS3 and Xbox 360 will probably be on retail shelves for three to five more years...

The PSP composite cable is used to display the Sony PSP screen on a television. How do I play PSP games on my TV using a composite cable? What am I doing wrong? I know this sounds like a dumb question as it is pretty self explanatory. I can see my PSP menu and play PS1 games from my PSP with...

Did I miss any bonus content by buying Uncharted 3 used? I just picked up a copy at the pawn shop. Skimming the box art, I see no reference to any voucher codes except for a 'Starhawk' beta which I really don't care about. By the way, it was $25, tax included. Was this a fair purchase, or did...

I have exactly enough in my account to get a $2.99 game on the PSN. This leaves only a few minis in my budget, and I don't want to go out and get another $10 card so I can spend $3 more on a downloadable PS1 game. I remember about a year ago PSN ran a special offer with select PS1 games for...

I bought Fatal Frame 2 for PS2 brand new from Ebay. It arrived today. How can I tell whether it is a factory sealed game or a used game that has been re-shrink wrapped? What are the key characteristics of an original factory sealed PS2 game?
