A Huge Weight Has Been Lifted From My Shoulders...
lazyhoboguy | 7:27 AM on 08.23.2009 0 comments


NO, I was not decapitated. Although it would be pretty impressive if I managed to operate a computer and type an emmy-award winning blog (Hey it could happen, the ps3 won an emmy for its controller. I kid you not. Here is Proof ) without my noggin.

The weight that was removed was a bunch of mind-numbingly bad video games.

If you are not a jerk / jerkette, perhaps you remember this blog?

Destructoid users, you are exempt from accusations of jerkery/ jerkettery since this blog was not posted up here. I am new to blogging on Destructoid and you could not have possibly seen it unless you stalk me on other sites. <---- **Read Before You Continue And Things Will Make Much More Sense**

I sold off Soldier of Fortune: Payback quite awhile ago, but still had Madden NFL 06 for ps2 until today / yesterday (it is 3 am so technically it was yesterday, but still feels like the same day, you know what I am saying my fellow insomniacs? You Dont? Well Sir / Maam, you must be quite the poopsicle / poopsiclette !)

So, anyways... I visited a local / independent gaming store in San Francisco today. It is called star games and opened up last year. I just found out about it a few weeks ago and was eager to support a game store that wasnt owned by an evil corporation (*cough* gamestop and gamecrazy *cough*)

I had a backpack full of turd-like games that I needed to dispose of. They included these marvelous contributions to the gaming world! ( Intense Sarcasm)

NES

Back to the Future 2 and 3

Who Framed Roger Rabbit

Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego?

WWF WrestleMania

Xenophobe

(I also brought excitebike. It is not bad but I already have the gba version.)

N64

Superman (Surely the greastest game ever made??? )

WCW Mayhem

PS2

Madden NFL 06 (DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE DIE !!!)

Silent Scope

Socom (Not Trash like these other games, but I could not get into it.)

These craptastic games were cluttering up my apartment and I had decided to get rid of them once and for all. I thought that the guys / guyettes at this store would not buy back these terrible games, but I was wrong. They gave me 3 bucks a piece for about all those terrible nes games. They only gave me 1 dollar for some because they already had too many copies of them.

Also, Prepare yourself ...

They Gave me money for this....


Look at his face! Even he is angry to be in this game! He was so outraged to be part of this horrendous game/ suicide kit that he put a giant S on his chest which stands for "SUCKS"

Superman on N64

I received $3 dollars for this game. I still cannot believe this. I feel a little guilty to tell you the truth. I feel like I strangled an unsuspecting puppy or something. But o well, perhaps someone will buy it from them (bahahahahahahahahahah)

The guy said he couldn't take my copies of Socom and Madden NFL 06 for ps2 because they were too scratched (they sure were, thank you so much hollywood video customers) The thought of taking Madden NFL 06 back with me made me vomit a little in my mouth.







I started sweating profusely and felt lightheaded. My body could not handle that outcome. It seemed like it was revolting at the mere idea of me keeping that game. If I did keep it, I fear my body would refuse to function anymore. So, to save my own life I said "Well, you can have Socom and Madden Nfl 06 as a donation". I am so generous...

I am free of the curse of these wretched games! Unfortunately for this independent game store, Star Games now has both Madden NFL 06 and Superman on N64. I wouldn't at all be suprised to hear in the news that their store had spontaneously combusted ,or that an angry mob of video gamers had burned the store to the ground, or that having those 2 games in that store caused a portal to another dimension to open up ( a dimension where the only games ever made are Superman 64 and Madden NFL 06 ...)

 about me

My main hobby is playing video games so most of my blogs will be about them.

My consoles are: Game Boy, Game Boy Advance(and gba sp), Nintendo 64, Play Station 2, Play Station 3, NES, SNES, and Gamecube.

Here is my video game collection:
http://geocities.com/lazyhoboguy/ScottsGameCollection

I also am active in playing ps2 games through LAN tunneling. I play games that have had their online servers taken down. A program called xlink
(http://www.teamxlink.co.uk/) allows ps2 games with a LAN option to be played online still. Timesplitters Future Perfect is the game I play the most through this method.

check this site out if you love ps2,gamecube, or dreamcast and are interested in playing them online. http://www.onlineconsoles.com
