  1. I was pleasantly surprised how Bump N Jump turned out on the 2600 http://youtu.be/OU8yFTj9XGI

      Nice vid, Vector.

  2. Just found PacLand for the Lynx for $25 from the Netherlands. Thats a pricey one i've been trying to track down for a while!! Score!!

      Awesome, glad you were able to find that. Lynx games are getting hard to find no matter where you are.

  3. Colecovision VS XEGS: CENTIPEDE HEAD TO HEAD!

    1. DaytonaUSA

      DaytonaUSA

      I think the proportions of the Coleco and the funky art choices make it definitely a hard choice between the two. Just in case you guys are wondering, we aren't comparing the 5200 as neither Mike or I have that system (sorry, the joysticks alone make me want to scream, haha). Since he owns a Coleco and I own a XEGS it's been on our mind to see which of the same games are better on each respective system. It's hard for some, as they are so very different, but it's fun none the...

  4. It's too cold. Just have to make it through a couple of days before the heat wave of 30-40 degrees hits.

      It's 71 here in Phoenix, AZ :P.

  5. My laptop hard drive bit the dust! Augh! Any ideas for replacements?

      Actually, Sandisk is who I meant, not Samsung... although they aren't bad either...

      Solid State Drive if you don't need a ton of storage space. I kept having my regular HDDs die on me and I just got tired of it. I deleted everything I didn't need, and went SSD and have never wanted to go back. Quick boot times, fast load times of programs, and it's extremely stable. Highly recommended. Go with either Samsung or Western Digital.

  7. Today we review the Atari XEGS!

    1. DaytonaUSA

      Thanks for the like and sub, bud. Yeah, it wasn't ever anything I was interested in, but my tastes in games have been changing, and this system really ticks off all my check boxes for a great console. I'll be doing game reviews soon for it, including the modded VB controller I have working with it, so stay tuned.

  8. I suck so hard in Pac-Man that cheats can't help me.

      Yeah, same here, but it's still fun. I always die on the second or third screen.

      Yeah, there are guys in their 70s who look a couple decades older than her. People are living longer now than ever, though. And I'd imagine if you don't do drugs, like many in Hollywood, with access to such good health care you can last a good long time.

  10. Which Atari 2600 console type do you like the most?

    1. DaytonaUSA

      DaytonaUSA

      JR. For me, I wasn't born when the old ones were out, and wood grain was associated with old electronics. The JR looked really sleek. Of course, now that I'm older, I do appreciate the Vader. Unfortunately, I just don't have enough fun with the 2600. NES was when home gaming felt smooth enough to have fun.

  11. I would make some serious changes to the Jaguar rarity guide..

    1. DaytonaUSA

      DaytonaUSA

      Most of their rarity guides are horribly outdated. Problem is, the market in general right now is fluctuating on an almost monthly basis. It's not like it used to be where value on these games would stay fairly steady for a few years. Anything cart based from Nintendo is going sky high, hell even NGage is getting a little (read: little) love. Original PS is going up, and I'd bet my left you know what the DC is next.

  12. How long until we get that Air Asia cockpit voice recorder transcript? What's taking so long?

      You'd be surprised. Everything is so damned corrupt, who knows what they're doctoring. They could make it sound like Tim Allen shot the plane down with a pea shooter if they wanted to...

  15. Arrogant and abusive asshole at my work who thinks he's my boss but isn't harrasses me and just won't leave me alone. What should I do?

    1. DaytonaUSA

      Tell him that you don't take his orders, and that you are doing what your superior is instructing you to do. If he has a problem, to take it up with him.

  17. ipad is ridiculous.. It doesn't allow you to transfer files to and from the PC without spending more money.

    1. DaytonaUSA

      You can allow Android apps from outside the Play store to be installed. iPhones and iPads... crap. Owned them both, several versions. Gave up on them. Try JXD's products, if you're a gamer. Not only that, but just fantastic tablets on their own outside of gaming.

  18. How much longer do you think it will be until Toys R Us goes belly up?

    1. DaytonaUSA

      DaytonaUSA

      It won't be long. It won't be long for a lot of stores that aren't prominent online. I used to work there a long time ago back when I was in high school. I'm surprised the place made any money at all. Huge store with cooling and lighting bills... 10-15 employees on staff at once... 10 customers in a whole shift. Seriously, never got it. The only time we had a wealth of customers was during the Christmas rush. And after working in corporate retail, I can guarantee you that'...

      Dude, that's nothing. Try taking a Jurassic Park Lost World Sega arcade light gun unit to the third floor up a spiraling stair case. Did that a few months ago. If I ever leave this apartment, I'm leaving it here LOL. To hell if I ever try moving this thing ever again!

  19. Not only is one of Nintendo's most loved games soon to arrive on the Wii U, but you'll also be able to play it using one of the game company's best controllers. An officially licensed adapter will let you plug in up to four GameCube controllers when playing the next-gen iteration of Super Smash Bros.

      Nintendo isn't going out of business, but they aren't doing well. People often say they can last 40 years losing the mount they lost these last two years. That's actually not true. Most of their investments are temperary loans, buildings, equipment, computers, furniture etc. They have about 10-11 billion left. That'll last them one or two more failed console gens. As a Nintendo lover, I really hope they get their crap in line. The Wii U was a huge step in the wrong direction.....

  20. why do people think the Atari 7800 is worth so much money? Srsly, $30 for untested, dirty, silver peeling off, no controllers, no power, no Rf switchbox... am I in a crazy N dimension or something?

    1. DaytonaUSA

      DaytonaUSA

      I hear you. I personally don't get it either. I'd honestly pay more for the 5200. The controllers suck *** but I honestly like the exclusives better. Many of which weren't on the 7800

  21. Microsoft's Windows Update web site (used by Windows 2000 and XP) seems to be deteriorating more and more every day. Grab the updates you need while you still can.

      Happy with my Mac and Windows 7. I really don't like 8. I get it, and why they're doing it, but it's a shame they seem to have nearly cut support for the older OSes.
