That's about it. All that for $44. Solid purchase, no?

 

Sounds like it. I'm no expert, but I'm jealous, cause I only got two carts. I've had this thing since I was a toddler, and used it very little. It still is in great condition, aside from one of the joysticks (one of the wires got disconnected, I figured out how to bypass it)... 

What?!?!  All of those zombie brains we've been collecting have been for naught!?!  We just finished the Zombie Island of Dr. Ned, and then found TK's shack!?!  And now we have to collect 400-some-odd brains, after we finished the expansion!?!?

C3PX Ben, why didn't you tell me?

1600 pts for $15. It's getting harder to find these below $20, so $15 is pretty decent.

I bought 2.

In other news, Castlevania Lords of Shadow was my most recent obsession.  Pretty darn fantastic.

Also- Dead Island is pretty good.  Playing it co-op online with my friend since we finished Borderlands.

L.A. Noire is what I'm up to now... engaging but not overwhelmingly so.  The "human lie detector" bit is an interesting new kind of gameplay... but I happen to be terrible at it.

This is not a page 3 thread.

Got Guild Wars 2 & Minecraft for the PC. They are both super fun and addicting.

What cartridges do you have?

ET

 

You're gonna have a lot of fun with that one. ;) And the neck goes up...up...up...

I was passed down a 7200 that I fixed up and played for a while...or should I say attempted to play. The thing was huge for no reason, had a ridiculous power pack that seemed as if it wanted to explode, the games were no good even when they did work, and the damn stupid controllers NEVER WORKED! NON-FUNCTIONING! And that's how they actually sold them originally!

One of those Ebay sales that I was very glad to get rid of.

I recently started playing the multiplayer for World at War again. I do some for a while, forget and then pick it up a few months later.

I'm guessing you mean a 5200. Never had one myself, but I'm not really looking that hard for one either.

So sad...

That list is pretty 'bottom-heavy'. And it's pretty sloppy, looking like some idiot just typed out the titles of whatever was sitting on his leet "gamer's shelf".

Your mom is bottom heavy.

Meh...You get a 'B' for effort.

Been playing Guild Wars 2 and DayZ lately.

Recently beat Space Marine and all the Dawn of War II games, but I still have all the campaigns apart from Space Marine to play in Retribution.

Still have a partially-completed Assassin's Creed playthrough to finish, and then the rest of those games.

I also need to finish my 100% run of Arkham City and play Arkham Asylum.

Ugh. Stupid school and life.

It only gets worse. :p

That's what your Mom said last night.

Tried the Torchlight 2 demo. Pretty awesome. I'll pick up the full game when it's inevitably on sale.

I know... I know.

There's only one cure for the 'life sucks' blues.....

The up-cumming PONG HD for the Wii-U.

;)

Up-whatnow?

PONG.....it's like ping-pong, but digitally remastered for superior sound & picture quality.

Got Minecraft today. My life is officially over.

My friends and I play our own rendition of Tekkit, with Industrial Craft, Build Craft, and several other mods that all work together. It's insane what some of my buddies rig up with that stuff. I still haven't broken into the industrial age, though...

I've been playing it on & off for a while. It definitely sucks up a lot my time. Haven't used any mods yet.
