all find a place in my collection, GT2 replaces an inferior one with a missing disc

bringing my total number of boxed ps1 games up to 111 one hundred and eleven - this includes a coupla games that are in ex-rental  boxes - Pong & Doom -


PS1 games are easy to find at Gamestation, but prices mostly start at £3.99 for 1 game - I don't post here about stuff I buy in Gamestation for any system, unless it's an uber-sweet deal.

Update 4:50pm

Went to the auction house, to see how I got on, sold some china tea sets. Got £33. Mrs.THX sold a lot of my junk, and our old VHS tapes (we buy them second hand, watch them and sell them again) for £65 at a boot sale.

On the way back from the auction house, the guy in the junk shop sold me his kids Megadrive (mk2) and some common games, and Battletoads loose, which i didnt have for £5

a few yards further on, the charity shop had loads of old gaming magazines, I got about 50 - various titles, mostly PS1 some solutions and guides, some PC and some multi platform all around 4 tol 6 years old for a mere £2.  Looks like there are a few pull out postsers in them, so hope to have something for the games room soon.

Sweet finds, man!  Some people wouldn't get excited about it, but I'd be especially pumped about the magazines.  They're not super-old, but that could still make for some good reading and like you said - posters too perhaps.

old magazines are awesome. you can find some cool stuff in them. last week i got some UMK cards out of a mag i found.

yeah, they are fun to flick through, and I like to read revies of games.

gamefaqs is good when I am in a jam, but reading a glossy magazine is much easier on the eyes

Today's find. Poor. Theme Park for the PS1. 112 boxed PS1 games now.

magazine finds are great. they are usually dirt cheap too. gives me something to peruse while in the loo. I once found a pile of Amiga magazines at a Salvation Army. definately interesting to flip through.
