This had to be posted. It's just so sick and wrong.

Gibby's Game Room


I've seen these before. There's a videogame collector over here who owns every single videogame console ever released, I thought this was him room.

Seeing all those consoles brought back some memories. "I had the TI-99 4A!"

I just think it would be cooler if he had the originals of each console. He has the PSX instead of the original PlayStation. He has the rereleased Atari 2600 (not the one from last year, but the second coming of the 2600 which actually looks like this past year's Atari) instead of the old wood panelled one. There may be others, but I'm not sure.

I think you meant PSOne--the PSX is the never-released version of the PS2 with the 160GB hard drive and DVD-R drive (making it a PVR as well as a game system). I got a kick out of seeing the Odyssey 2; I haven't seen one of those in ages.

Before the true PSX was ever conceived, the redisigned PSone was called the PSX by most gaming publications. Why that was, I have no idea.

I got an idea what are the biggest game deaths of all time?

Well, I guess Aeris from FF 7 would be at number one, or at least in the top five. Though, knowing about it five years before I played the game completely spoiled it for me.

Well obviously.

For most game characters, death isn't permanent anyway. But poor Aeris only lives on throuh bad fanfictions and our memories!

Now I gotta find Mario DS, they didn't have it when I bought it...

Best video game deaths? Me, playing Ninja Gaiden on Xbox, cause I died so many dang times...

You think dying a lot is bad?

Right after I got past the first fiend boss and rescued rachel, I didn't play for a while. When I came back, SOMEONE HAD ERASED my game. I swear I spent two full hours on the boss of level 2 alone my first time through, and somebody erased it! Actually, he saved over it, effectively erasing my progress.

Thank you Chaltab. I knew I had seen it called the PSX before somewhere. But, yeah, Gundark is right, it is now called the PSOne.

The first one was alright, but nothing special. I don't really have faith that Battlefront 2 will be anything worth looking at.

Lego Star Wars on the other hand...

I concur, Luke. Lego Star Wars ROCKS!

Han Solo: I'm a nice man.

If by 'adult' you mean M-Rated, then I have to agree with you.

I might have to check that game out. I was going to buy the new Starfox game, but I may push that one back in favor of SWLego. Tough decision, though. That new Starfox game is pretty badass.
