  1. Playstation Plus Free Games

    Good month. Was thinking of picking up Destiny 2 just for the single player mode just the other week. Does anyone still play it? Sold my copy of God of War 3 last year so be good to own it again.

    What did you do to get your name printed in it?
  3. The Wrasslin' thread

    Loved watching the Hart Foundation as a tag team. Crazy to think 4 of the 5 members of the Hart Foundation formed in 1997 are dead. Bulldog, Owen, Neidhart & Pillman. Just Bret left.

    Ah ok, I thought it might be a white or spice orange one. If you decide to sell the 3DO, let me know.

    What colour is the Gamecube and how much for the 3DO?
  6. The Official N-Europe top #10 games of all time

    Oops, sorry. Completely missed that rule. Removed Super Mario All Stars
  7. The Official N-Europe top #10 games of all time

    I loved that game, never wanted it to end. Complete opposite to Wind Waker. I was one of the few who didn't have any issues with the motion controls.

    Just finished modding my spare megadrive 2 to 60Hz I thought it would be complicated before I starting looking into how to do it but there's nothing to it. All I needed was a phillips screwdriver and a stanley knife. At the moment its permanently 60Hz with no switch back to 50Hz but as I've never soldered before, I might not bother.

    Picked it up at a car boot for £2, I'd guess it went to a few car boots sat for hours in the sun before I got it.

    Took advantage of the nice weather to try and restore my dreamcasts and wavebird to their original colour. My wavebird before After It's a big improvement and while a bit patchy in places it isn't that mustard colour anymore One of the dreamcasts before After The photo doesn't do it justice, it's back to it's original colour. Ok, so how did I pull off this wizardry you ask Got a bottle of this from Boots for £1.50 after reading about this restoring technique on a retro gaming site. Dismantle then clean the console or controller parts, dry then cover with the Hydrogen Peroxide using a paint brush, cover in cling film and leave in sunlight for 6 hours minimum.
  13. God of War (PS4)

    Time to trade in your Switch and get a PS4 Pro.
  14. Your 2018 Gaming Diary

    Was bored of it with no intention of playing it again. I made the right choice getting rid while it still had some value.

    Playing The Last Guardian has put me off buying Shadow of the Colossus on the PS4 due to how bad the controls were. Was going to trade Monster Hunter World in for it on Saturday. Ended up trading it in for Crash Bandicoot N.Sane Trilogy instead. Only played it for a couple of hours so far but I made the right choice.
  16. Your 2018 Gaming Diary

    Just finished The Last Guardian and I'm not sure if I enjoyed it or not. Probably one of the most frustrating games I've ever played. The camera and controls were a nightmare at times. Commanding Trico was also a pain, at times not only was my character shouting at him, I was as well.

    Managed to get a Dreamcast off eBay for £22 including P&P. Arrived this morning and apart from the standard yellowing it runs great. My Dreamcast struggled to run Craxy Taxi and Sega Rally so those two were the first games I tested which ran with no problems. Sounds so much healthier too. Got some Hydrogen Peroxide so once summer finally arrives I'll be using that on both dreamcasts and my wavebird.

    Got my Dreamcast keyboard out of the loft and just played this. Only got to Chapter 4.

    I did the same, played a bit of Sega Rally 2, House of the Dead 2 and Virtua Fighter 3 this morning. Loved playing Virtua Striker 2 in the arcades, may have to play that later. Unfortunately my Dreamcast is playing up, wouldn't even load Sega Rally 2 at first and froze during the 3rd chapter of House of the Dead 2. Could be down to not playing on it for a few months or just the laser dying. Seemed to improve the longer I had it on so not giving up on it just yet.

    This dreamcast looks in excellent condition by the way, I know you'll want one in mint or near mint condition https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/dreamcast-console-stunning-condition/263587944797?hash=item3d5f10d95d:g:bZ4AAOSwP4daxSk-
  21. General Retro Discussion

    Very Nice, how much did all that cost you?
  22. General Retro Discussion

    Bargain at £425 as well, I'll buy two
  23. General Retro Discussion

    Just want a spare and probably cheaper to get one now than if it dies in a few years.
  24. General Retro Discussion

    Funnily enough, I've been looking at buying a backup Dreamcast. Decided against bidding on a couple last night, £40 is most I really want to pay. Regretting not picking up the two I saw at car boots last year for £30 each

    Fingers crossed for you that it doesn't have the save glitch.
