I've beat Faxanadu in one (long) sitting. I've never played Halo. As a child, I nick named the second gun upgrade in Stinger "Potty Pot Shot" as the bullets are round and reminded me of toilet bowls. I believe in video game violence, a friend knocked me out cold at age 12, we we're practicing our Dragon Punch's. I've rented Brittany's Dance Beat....twice. Zelda 2 is amazing, and so is Simon's Quest.

Goodwill is out, Criag's list in IN!


















$40....Thats right....$40!!!!!!!!

Today may be the best day of my life! Some kid had an add that just said " Box of vintage games, $40. I emailed him as soon as I saw it asking what games were in said box. He responded that he didn't have time to look but there were over 30 games and a NES and SNES. I figured that no matter if it were 30 copies of Drakken It'd still be great becasue my SNES shit the bed years age and I've been playing on a FC Twin. I got to his house, forked over the $40 and ran. I drove down the road to my office and started to tear the box apart . When I saw FFIII in nearly shit, when I saw Earthbound I dry fucked a pile of cartridges.

I have alot of NES/SNES doubles that I'd be willing to offer up to Retroforce GO! Contest's. I'll whip up a list of my doubles soon.

Also, hey everyone, I don't blog here much but have been a member for some time.

...I want to kill you right now. I hope you know that.



Actually, none of this really matters. Because you're not a true MGS fan.

If only that guy knew. He could probably get away with selling Earthbound alone for that amount.

I can hardly believe it myself, I'm wait for the kid to call me and say he was just joking and that he wants the shit back. I never have luck like this.

Just finished a sick round of Karnov!

I deserve all the hate. But atleast I will play ALL of these and not sell them on ebay to some poor cunt.

But I totally want to donate some of my better doubles to a retroforce contest. Maybe give them to ome one who's never had the chance to play them. I have two copies of Super Metroid, it'd be a CRIME to keep them both.

You know that if these weren't his they were his older brother's who's off at college or in the military, and he's gonna be PISSED about what happened to all of his games.

The mere fact that Earthbound was in there means I envy you.

@NAMAKUBI

Thats what I'm thinking. He was kind of a sport-o, so I be these were his nerdy older brothers and he wanted to get some cash. I'm going to get hunted down and killed, aren't I?

@BRECKSHER
Yes, come on over. I had a 8 hour gaming fit yesterday with my friend but I need MOAR!!!!

@PSYCHOSOLDIER
Like I said, I'm going to try to donate the extras for a contest on Destructoid/Retroforce. But If they don't want them, I'll keep you in mind

And everyone else, thank for the kudos/hates.
