More Sega Pickups

Have made a few Misc Sega Pickups over the last couple weeks.


First Pickup is from my daughter, who found this at a Thrift Store for a Dollar.
 Sonic 3D Blast for the PC

Next, I did trade with a guy on Segaage.com for some extra artwork and manuals I had.

A couple White Dreamcast VMU's

I had 3 Blue VMU's, and 1 Green one that is Brand New Package. Looking for all the Colors. 

Next up an impulse eBay purchase, it was $21.00 shipped each for all 3. $7.00 a piece for complete Sega CD games is not a bad deal at all.


They are all are complete and in great shape.

 Ground Zero Texas


Prize Fighter

 Fahrenheit

I had tried to buy Fahrenheit on my Utah Game Hunting Trip, but they only had one disc. Turns out both are needed, at least to play the 32X version, as I found out this weekend when I went to play.

And, finally, one of my Sega Genesis Holy Grails. One of my personal top 6 games for the system.

Shining in the Darkness
This was another eBay pickup, I paid $15.00 shipped. 

Unfortunately, Missing the Manual.


One of my absolute favorite games. I remember buying this Brand new myself, back when it came out. I put it on layaway, and made weekly payments with my PT job. I have had Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection on the Xbox 360 for a few years now, this game is on there, but I refused to play until I got the actual physical cartridge. 

This is a Role Playing Game/Dungeon Crawler. I remember having a stack of Graph paper maps I made while playing, to keep my place in the dungeons. I cannot wait to delve back into this game. Will probably play the 360 version, as it will look better on my TV and I plan to put some gameplay videos on my You Tube Channel.

Halo The Master Chief Collection $8.00

I was advised of a deal for Halo The Master Chief Collection for Xbox One at Target.

Best Buy, Gamestop and Walmart all had it in their ads for $19.99. Target had it for $29.99, but they also had some Cartwheel app I had never heard of, that was giving 60% off Halo The Master Chief Collection.

I checked the 3 Targets close to me, and unfortunately, they were all out. But my daughter found me one at her local Target, did the $19.99 Price Match, and Used the 60% Off Cartwheel App, and.....


Brand New Halo The Master Chief Collection for $8.00 and Change

What have I been playing?

Hey, What's Happening? Sorry I have been away for a few weeks, had lots going on, Work, my 5yr old started school, wedding stuff, etc...

Anyway, I thought I would share what I have been playing lately.

Every night before bed, I usually play a little bit of a Nintendo handheld, for the last almost 6 months I was playing Super Collapse II on the Gameboy Advance. I decided to try something new, that I have never played before, and I picked up last summer (Blog Here) and only tested to make sure it
worked.

The Legend of Zelda The Minish Cap

Playing on my awesome Gameboy Advance SP, I bought new back in 03/04.

Same ol Zelda Music, Same ol Gameplay, but definitely fun. So far it is pretty fun, I have made it to Mount Crenel. Looking forward to continuing.

Call of Duty: Black Ops III

There have been quite a few Double XP weekends lately, plus a new map pack. My Fiancee and I decided to prestige, and I am sad to say, she is further along than I am. I am Prestige 2 lvl 50 or so, she is Prestige 3 lvl 20? Anyway, it's Call of Duty, not much else to say.

Forza Motorsport 5

and

Forza Motorsport 6

Having lots of fun playing both Forza's, trying to finish up the career in 6, but am at the point where the races are Really long. Been making Videos for both, you can check them out on my You Tube Channel Here

That's it for now, have lots of Blogs planned, including one that Should have been put up back in November..... Whoops.

A Few Misc Video Game Pickups

Had a few misc Game Pickups over the last week or two.

Nights into Dreams Sampler for the Sega Saturn, Wish it was the complete game.....

Best Buy runs a lot of one day only sales, and last Thursday or Friday it was this one for $9.99, Brand New. Picked it up for the 360 last July, (Blog Here) Not a big fan of the Multiplayer on this one, But I did really enjoy the campaign enough, that I wanted to play it again on the Xbox One. How many chances do you get to ** Spoiler ** Kill Kevin Spacey.

Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare 

And another Xbox One pickup? My oldest daughters boyfriend bought this game, and decided he didn't like it, and didn't want it anymore, so he asked if I wanted it. I had been planning on getting it eventually, so said "yes",  Thanks Again Nate!

 Halo 5: Guardians

Finally, my last pickup is a game I started playing on the Xbox 360, and it quickly became one of my absolute favorite games of all time. I have played through the campaign on the 360 10-12 times, and 2-3 on the PS3.

I don't play PC games anymore, but I bought all the different versions, just to display, because that's how much I like this game. The Gold Edition was the last "version" I needed.

F.E.A.R - First Encounter Assault Recon

Here is where it will live on the shelf, next to it's bretheren
