Post everytime you get ANYTHING retro. We want to know (^v^)

Raven project for psx I guess

This last couple of weeks I've been revisiting point and click adventures. Just yesterday I completed Beneath a Steel Sky.

I just got back from town where I found PC CD copies of Beneath a Steel Sky and Monkey Islands 1 + 2!! This is all the better considering I'm from a pretty small town! What are the chances?

Nice to have a legit copy of BaSS and PC versions of Monkey...

Now that everyone has 100Hz or Flatscreen, I guess Time Crisis II shipped over from the US (won at auction) is now retro.

Don't need any more PS2 gun shooters now.

What's with the two copies of Time Crisis 3?

You are missing Capcom's Dino Stalker and a few others such as End Game

[charlesr]

Do I really need those? Are they going to add anything more than the ones I already have? I'm not looking to complete - just to have a decent coverage.

Stoise: I got the Chinese version of TC3 off playasia for £3 or something silly. Then got the PAL version with some of the others which were bought as a bundle. Doubt I'll ever find anyone who wants a pal version of TC3, so I'll just hang on to it. Or give it away in the for-free thread maybe.

whats wrong with the PAL Time Crisis 2 and 3?

arent they full speed/screen 50hz?

I'd heartily recommend Dino Stalker. Probably the best light gun game ever made.

thebuddahman sorry, originally mis read and gave your post the incorrect tone.
You missed the wink in my post. The WS's are wonderful but fail at almost everything. But they have a tetris game and a Klonoa game so they rock in my eyes!

Had an unexpected bonanza today.


I think the Darius 2 is a pirate copy. It doesn't have the small grooves cut out of the side of the cart and the cover has the md logo with almost pink and blue instead of red and green. Manual is short but of decent quality.

Hi everyone, been a while since I'll last posted, but today I found a retro find I couldn't refuse!

UK Alien Soldier on the MD for 15 pounds! It's missing the manual but for that price I'm more than happy with it.

Just need to find an MD to play it on as I'm stuck up in Derby at the moment and won't be home for some time.

Also found a copy of Kirby Tilt 'n' Tumble which I was suprised to find as it was a US GBC game and Donkey Kong County on the GBA.

Out of curiosity, did you buy that in Derby? We had a copy at work that seemed to have been hacked when i borrowed it, it had a gold sticker over the edge of the cart, would be interesting if its the same copy

The logo on badly faded spines goes pink/blue as you describe. Looks legit from what I can see. (the legit manual is short too btw..and most/all pirates don't have manual anyway)

[Yakumo]

Yeah, most if not all Taito MD games don't have the groves in the carts just like ALL Sunsoft games are slighly squarer looking and come in those cute little boxes.

You are probably right. Just jumped out as a bit dodgy to me.

[wheelaa]

Yakumo

Are squarer looking, not slightly..no round edges here! Although PC doesn't come in a little box though.
