Cost me $120

Raging Skies cost me $2.75

Here are some iffy mobile phone pics of my last two weeks worth of purchase/ebay packages.



Vanishing Point, minty fresh.
4 Wheel Thunder, smashed case but other than a small tear in the front insert the rest is great.
Deathtrap Dungeon, only thing wrong with it is the fscking Gametraders sticker on it
Gear Fighter Dendoh, mint as you like.



Cold Winter and Gauntlet Legends Seven Sorrows. Really wish these Gametraders places would stop putting impossible to remove stickers on their games.



Love me those Playstation racers. Circuit Beat, Advan Racing, Max Power Racing and Peak Performance. Peak Performance is the english release of some game whose name now escapes me.

Also got PSO3 and Rally Cross 2, but the 3 picture limit says you're not seeing them.

Not sure how to get rid of the thumbnails sorry.

Touge Max in Japan. Is Gear Fighter Dendoh any good, was tempted to pick that up a few months back but never did.

Holy Grail number 1 arrived



In '93 I was blessed with a dodgy copy of this platforming gem. And since then ive looked out for the original of this. This is only the second copy to surface infront of me, both appearing in Germany. I let the last one slide, this one I ended up putting a snipe in at £60 and won it for £4.06! Very pleased!

Most of you are probably thinking 'What? Its just some Amiga game'... Seriously, if you get a free moment in your evenings give this game a quick run through in an emulator and hopefully youll see its charm to me.

Back in 93, (well until the release of the Gameboy Color & Dreamcast) I was console-less, so anything that remotely tried to be Sonic or Mario on the Amiga was something spectacular to me.

The music, bright visuals and lovely cutesy gameplay completely captivated me. Im yet to finish the game, but now I own the original, I set out to do so.

Oh and im rather sad really, at work ive got a MOD player to listen to Amiga music as I design away, Woodys World is one that often gets a good playing! Amiga music always makes me a little emotional and reminds me of the 'good old days' when pixels, football stickers and sweets seemed tobe the most important things in life. *le tear*

But anyways, here is a video of the game in action if youve never seen it before. Skip it in a bit to get past the indoor levels.



Left on the Amiga to get list now is: 'Yo! Joe!', 'Dojo Dan' and 'Traps & Treasures'

Holy Grail number 2 will be something spectacular. Its been paid for and will be ons its way to me now


EDIT: Been watching that video and getting even more nostalgic. That title screen is burnt into my brain, it is quite possibly one of the most awesome title screens ever made...
