I picked them up off ebay around the time of the PS2. There were some great games on there. I remember playing Crazy Taxi and Power Stone on the Dreamcast. Loved them. :¬)

If you won a GAD GP, what would you spend it on? It's a pity Freeola don't do Steam vouchers too, I could buy a few games on there.

If I won a GAD, it would probably just go towards another game. I've got a few games on my list but most get bought by my brothers anyway. Similar tastes.

Toasters no...I'm certain, Mrs DL goes through those like there's no tomorrow...but we are still searching for Descent3, a LOR Map Book and any other 'game consoles' my kids may have owned...I'll contact them shortly and ask what else has been deposited :-))

(It's a big attic and I suppose now is the time to 'explore' because it's warmer)

Today was the day I decided to slow down, take a step back, and go through the games that I have got but haven't finished with, and to give myself this opportunity I have holiday'd from my rentals.

The list of games I have to finish being:
God of War 2
Heavy Rain
Mini Ninjas
Prince of Persia (need to 100% the Epilogue)
Star Ocean: The Last Hope -International-

and then whatever I get from trading in MW2:HE. Should last me a good couple of months :)

Don't fall behind pete, you need to keep up-to-date with your gaming. Hope all is going well at the house, nice weather to spend inside painting the walls. :¬)

I'll have their Star Wars figures (or any figure), I need an AT-AT and some stormtroppers, I don't think I have any, only the good guys.

Oh god no, our attic usually feels like a sauna already. In this heat it must be an oven up there. I had to go up there the other day to get the fans down.

Do we have any current or former non-videogame warhammer players?

I did our loft with that silver insulation stuff on the roof so it keeps the heat out in the summer and the warmth in during the winter, gets rid of condensation too.

Hate to think what's up there, but not games consoles, they're all in my study here.

I used to paint and play Warhammer 40k with my dad, haven't touched the stuff in years though!

We sorted out our attic when we moved so there's nothing interesting up there now.

Although all this talk of old games consoles has really made me want to get them again. So I'll try and build up a nice collection. Which at the moment stands at 0, so I have a little way to go. :¬)

I never got round to trying Warhammer 40k, well I didn't really do Warhammer much either, but I loved collecting and painting the figures. Do you still have the figures Luke or your dad still plays it?
