Topic: Recent Retro/Misc Gaming Purchases? (Not PS4/PS5)

I got a sega genesis 3 with sonic 2.I also got TY the Tasmania tiger on the windows store.

@KratosMD: Which compilation disc? the one with Pacman CE on I hope! If its got bejewelled on dont even bother with the trophies mate they are impossibly long whereas the PS3 ones are easy. I had the xbox dammit!

Ive just bought a couple of PC games I found in Liverpool including one Ive never heard of Spear of Destiny for the PC. I had to pick that up! I dont think I can play them due to being proper legacy games so they will sit with my boxed PC games to look at when Im 65.

@KratosMD: It was bundled with the xbox 360 with the tiny hard drive (8 gb off the top of my head) there are 2 arcade compilations the one you have is the best just because of Pacman CE - and if you think thats good the next version; Pacman CE DX was even better until they decided to cut the game up into dlc! Feeding Frenzy and Uno are rubbish , Boom Boom Rocket is like Fantavision from the PS2 and is fun for twenty minutes. Bejewelled 2 was in the other compilation disc.

Edit - I just realised Geometry Wars and Hardwood Backgammon were on the other arcade disc and those games were amazing so the other compilation disc is better.

I have the compilation disc that has Pac-Man CE.

It came with my friend's 360 (as well as CoD2), and he gave me both games when his system RROD'd (unfortunately he had gotten CoD2 scratched up somehow).

The compilation disc also has Luxor (or was it Luxor 2), which I was pretty addicted to years ago, lol.

@RR529: Oh yeah forgot about Luxor. That game has a million levels. Neat little game, reminded me of bust a move in a weird way.

A bunch! I got...

Tales of Xillia.
Söldner X.
Astro Tripper.
Elemental Monsters: Online Card Game.
Tears To Tiara II: Heir of The Overlord.
Castle of Illusion: Starring Mickey Mouse.
Wild Arms II.
Suikoden III.
Legend of Mana.

All for PS3! Anyways what do you think of my latest haul?

@Rukiafan7: I like Suikoden III even though not as good as 1 and 2... I love Chris as a protagonist and Thomas' chapters but don't like the other 2 protagonists... Castle of illusion is an amazing and very underrated remake

I've just got Assassins Creed Unity for Xbox One for the really cheap price of £1.39, so I'll be giving that a try later.

Picked up this little gem from the flea market today for $5

I just got a programmable genesis remote - I want to play with the ability to control the enemies in Shining Force II - I have never been able to get the code in quick enough without one.

@Tasuki Sticky request!

Anyways my latest purchase is Jak And Daxter: HD Collection (PS3 Retail).

@Rukiafan7: Please stop asking for every thread to be stickied. Too many stickied threads cause just as much clutter. Besides if you can't find a thread just use the search box.

Finally got a VGA box for the Dreamcast, bringing the thing back from our place in the mountains so I can replay some classics, especially Shenmue 2.

I'll bring the ps2 up there with SNK vs Capcom 2 and some other fighters, since that was the Dreamcast's main purpose - rainy day brawling fun.
I should also bring the Megadrive up there since there is a non flat tv model and it would probably look better than on my home screen.

@Feena: So jealous that you guys can play Shenmue 2 on the Dreamcast.

@Tasuki: My dad has a NA copy of the game's beta. Perhaps I could work something out and send it your way?
He was a game-tester for a few years in case you were wondering why he'd have a beta of a Dreamcast game. By the way was Shenmue 2 officially released on the Dreamcast in NA?

@Rukiafan7: No Shenmue 2 was never released on the Dreamcast in NA, it was only released on Xbox. Which don't get me wrong I could play since I have an Xbox but I am one of those people that like to have the entire series on then same console if I can.

So first night at the Portland Retro Gaming Expo I find this for $5

Needless to say I am a happy man!!

Picked up Mafia 2 recently and I've really been enjoying it. It's not polished, but it has tons of personality - you have to drive according to speed limits and traffic rules, for example, which doesn't sound fun at all but is actually pretty enjoyable.

@KratosMD I've got both those games, tbh I'm surprised you couldn't get them cheaper than that, I would expect to not pay more than £5 each here in the UK (currently about 6.50 Euro).

@KratosMD fair play, I hope you enjoy both those games. I've not had much play on Star Wars but I've got about 130 hours on Dark Souls and enjoyed it immensely.
