Lots of people gave Prince of Persia crap but I loved it.  Enslaved is great too.

I really liked that Prince of Persia game, too! I've yet to play Enslaved. Maximo and Jak & Daxter are two of my all time favorite games.


Bought Patapon 3 (new) for €7.5 and uDraw Gametablet + "Instant Artist" game (also new) for €15. The tablet really works quite well for something so cheap. Atleast what I paid for it. It was priced down from €39.95 or something. I think the store was trying to get rid of it quickly.

How can it be that I can buy this fairly decent tablet for €15 including a game yet a new Dualshock 3 controller is around €60! It's a well made controller, but c'mon.

Nice little kijiji score today. Any of you that know me know I'm not a big fan of anything Xbox related, but even so I felt compelled to pick this lot up. My dad payed me a few bucks to install a Car Stereo for him on Sunday so I had some cash burning a hole in my pocket. Paid $50 for the lot.  Who knows, maybe I'll even find a few reasons to change my opinion after a little reading?

Got 70 issues of OXM including full years (with holiday guides) for 2007-2010, half a year for 2006 and all but 2 for 2011, Included 31 of the Demo Discs, 6 various Game Guides and a couple old EGMs the guy had around the house. I've never read a single issue so I'm looking forward to digging in and hopefully finding a couple hidden gems I was unaware of.

holy shit that's a lot of XB mags, Crab! Great find. I've never read any either. Kinda jealous haha.

Yeah Crabs, that OXM collection is impressive, but it doesn't beat my gold!

Well, maybe it's not "gold", but it's a strategy guide from my childhood that has a special place.  I used to spend hours drawing the fighters in this book until I could recreate the picture perfectly.  It's gold for me

THQ lost $60M on that tablet. :/

I had a copy of GamePro I would bring to the arcade with me for MK2 for reference. I would play on the machine for hours until the day care would leave, only using up about $1-2 in quarters (because I couldn't afford to play any more after that). However, one day, I had the magazine next to the machine and a few people stepped on it and ripped it to shreds. :/

A couple weeks later, someone opened up a book store next to the arcade, and stopped by to challenge the best person there to MK2. I ended up beating him for 25 matches straight, and he told me I could come next door and pick out any book I wanted. Lo and behold, I found an MK2 strategy guide for consoles there to replace my old, ripped up copy of GamePro. The arcade shut down a week later, unfortunately, and my day care never really went to the arcade again after that, but I still own that book. It was the second strategy guide I technically owned (first being a copy of Phantasy Star III's guide, which I just finally purchased the game for last month). I spent hours upon hours upon hours with that PS III guide, thinking of how awesome it would be to play through and what choices I would make, even making it a point to memorize the guide and play through the entire game in my head when I was bored in school.

...now I own 600+ guides, with those two snuggled in with the rest.

A Handful of Redemption.  I love it.

Heh, reminds me of the episode of The Simpsons where Mr. Burns can't part with his teddy bear Bobo

I have a smallish collection of Strategy Guides, mostly RPGs with a few subsets.  Too bad that with its limited release Xenoblade Chronicles doesn't have a guide.

Huge score I moved  everything in my brothers house and he gave me all this stuff except the xbox 360 my roomate gave me that for rent.
