More Misc Video Game Pickups

Have a small pile of games I picked up over the last 2 weeks.

Star Wars Disney Infinity Power Discs

$5.00 from Walmart

I also picked me up some Nintendo Cartridges at Half Price Books form the Clearance Shelf.

 5 Screw (I want to get all the 5 screw games) Baseball for the NES $1.00

Wheel of Fortune for the Super Nintendo for $2.00

And Supercross 2000 for the Nintendo 64 for $1.00

Next I picked up an actual game for the PSP from Pawn America

 Sonic Rivals 2

Complete and in Good Shape

While we were there, I also picked up a few PS2 games

Call of Duty 3 & Bully

Complete and in Great Shape

Also Complete with the map, and in Great Shape!

Although the map may find its way into my Xbox 360 version, as that's the copy I am more likely to play. Gotta keep ahead of my friends in Gamerscore!

Forza Controller Stand

I was perusing eBay (no, Not me...) and I came across this cool little controller stand.

There were a bunch with Buy It Nows and Best offers, I got one for $7.00 shipped.

The Controller skin is pretty cool, I will probably use it if I ever get a plain controller. But I have my Forza Motorsport 6 Controller, a Special Forces (Silver, Black, Gray) Controller and my Wifes Dawn Shadow Controller.

I bought it to put my Forza Motorsport 6 Controller on

Looks Awesome!

More PSP UMD Video Pickups

More UMD Videos for my Collection!

So, I picked up a few more of my latest obsession, UMD Movies to watch on the PSP.

Saw an eBay auction for 3 Factory Sealed UMD Movies, Starting at .40 with $4.00 Shipping. I don't remember what I put for a max bid, probably whatever I had in my Pay Pal account at the time, and ended up winning the auction for $2.08.

Factory Sealed

 The Exorcism of Emily Rose, The Grudge and The Fog (the only one I haven't seen)

Last Saturday we (My 2 daughters  and myself) happened to wander into our favorite Pawn America, which we hadn't been to in awhile. And I scored a few more.

Die Hard (Awesome Xmas Movie), Ghostbusters and XXX.

They were having a sale, and he gave me Die Hard and XXX for $4 for both.

And I was looking at my Wii U Tablet Stand (The non charging one) and thought Hmmmmm?

Make a Great PSP stand, leaves enough room for the Headphone/Ear Bud Jack too.

More Video Game Pickups!

Been a long while since I have been out game hunting, but I have manged to pick up a few new things, which I will share with you all here.

First Pickup:

Finally picked up Grand Theft Auto Five for the Xbox One. I already had the collectors edition for the Xbox 360 since release day, but Rockstar added a First person view to play. I have wanted that for GTA since GTA III.

First Person view is awesome!

Second Pickup:

My daughter was out on her birthday and went to a new local video game store and found me a couple Playstation 2 games. She bought Me games on her birthday? What a girl. Thanks Again Mir!

Sega Classics and Resident Evil Outbreak

Both Complete and in Good Condition

Speaking of Sega, my Third Pickup:

I got the yearly Half Price Books coupons, featuring the 50% your highest priced item one. I never need a reason to go to HPB, but made a trip the day the coupon was valid. Now, the local HPBs around here are SO Extremely Ridiculously overpriced on their games, that even with the coupon, all I came away with was this.

 Air Force Delta for the Sega Dreamcast

Complete and in Good Shape for $4.00

That's it for today, got a few more posts coming soon!

Destruction Derby for Sega Saturn

Long Time, No Post. Sorry about that, I wish I could say I have been busy, or otherwise indisposed, however the honest truth is, I have been just plain lazy.

I have been playing a lot of Forza, Both Motorsport and Horizon. I downloaded & completed the Storm Island DLC for Horizon 2, finished the main story for Horizon 3 (still plenty do to though) and Downloaded the Blizzard Mountain DLC for Horizon 3 as well. I wanna finish Forza Motorsport 6 before the new game this year. Still have roughly 15 hours left of the campaign, and 20 hours of the Endurance races to go....

Anyway, enough about me, on to Destruction Derby!

I first played Destruction Derby at my buddies house, we both had a Sony Playstation, and were always hanging out and playing games. Destruction Derby had a Link Cable feature and we would hook up both our Playstations and TVs and race and crash against each other. It was a great time. The Destruction Derby series is one of my favorite franchises (except Arenas on PS2, What a disappointment), with Destruction Derby 2 being my favorite.

 So I finally got a Action Replay to play import games (From Japan and Europe) on my Sega Saturn, and what is the first game I get? Destruction Derby. I got a Brand New factory sealed Japanese Sega Saturn Copy for $11.00 shipped from Japan.

There is even English on the manual, cool.

Now I can import some other games, like all the Macross (Robotech to the U.S. fans) games Japan got, that we didn't. I also recently learned the PSP is Region Free, as far as the games go. Not the UMD's.

How many copies of Destruction Derby does one guy need?

Scumbag Thieving eBay Seller

To piggyback off of yesterdays blog, I would like to call out a Scumbag eBay seller.

I praised an eBay seller (HERE) after receiving a great deal, great packaging, just because. So, Why not call out a Douchebag, Thief as well?

I was looking for a PSP UMD Video I was after, 1995's Hackers. Yes I know it is not a very accurate portrayal of hacking, but it is one of my absolute favorite movies. I have seen it hundreds of times, it is just a plain fun movie.

Anyway this seller (who had 100% positive feedback at the time) had a copy for $1.50 with $2.67 Shipping, with zero bids, and the auction was ending that night while I was sleeping. Not a bad price. I put in a bid with the remainder of my Pay Pal account balance for a bid including shipping, which that night was $4.22, LoL. And I ended up winning it at the starting bid, so total it was $4.17.

2 weeks go by, aaand No Item. I contact the seller, aaand 3 days later No Response. I wait the alloted amount of time and open an eBay claim, and eBay refunds me the next day.

When I go to leave Negative feedback, I see someone else also left him a Negative calling him a "Bad Seller" the same day. His item cost? $1.00. Was this guy so hard up for cash, he had to rip people off for a couple of bucks? Who Knows, Who Cares, Fuck this Guy.

And the Scumbag is?

PSP UMD Movies

I have had my PSP for a little while now, I don't play it all that much, but then again I don't play any of my handhelds all that much, Anyway.....

 I am fortunate enough to have an office job where I can listen to my iPod all day. I generally listen to both Podcasts and Music. However, I had to work 4 hours New Years Day (well the day after new years since it was on a Monday) this Year. Now I file Compliance paperwork with banks, and they didn't work that day, as they "observe" it the following business day.

So, I decided to mix it up a little, and I brought my PSP and a couple UMD Movies (Clerks & House of 1000 Corpses) to listen to/watch. Propped the PSP between my Keyboard and dual monitors. It was kind of a nice break from Podcasts and Music. There is NO way I could do it on a regular work day though, the VP would FREAK. But, I can do it on those occasions where I go in for a few hours on a Saturday.

I looked up a list of UMD Movies, and made myself a list, and are now looking for somethings I am hunting down. Here are a few I decided to pick up.

Factory Sealed The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Remake, $4.00 Shipped

 Hostel $4.17 Shipped

My PSP UMD Movie Collection. Hitch & Fantastic 4 are Factory Sealed as well.

I plan on building up a library, to mix it up when I have to work a holiday (or observed holiday) or a Saturday afternoon.
