  1. The game looks west with the watercolour filter.
  2. I wasn't sure when it came out, so I had to double check. I didn't want you spending your time scanning it if it couldn't go up on here
  3. Jelly Tots. Haven't seen them in Canada for many, many years. The best hard candies are a couple from Switzerland. One is cola flavoured and shaped like frogs. And the other are these light blue ones that have a nice fruity taste to them. I have been telling my mother that she needs to go back and visit her family there so she can bring me a couple cases of each back.
  4. This came up last week on Kotaku I think. I am surprised the site still has some left. I already have two Dreamcasts, and will be selling them along with my Saturn and 32X's, as well as duplicate Genesis and Sega CD systems as I need to prune my collection down because I need the room more than I need all that stuff. If I was still collecting like I was a couple years ago, I would have already bought one of those Dreamcasts.
  5. What I used to love but cannot find anymore are Jelly Tots.
  6. That came out in 2000, didn't it? That's past the 1999 cut off date for the site :(
  7. If I want something sour of gummie, I always want Sour Cherry Cola Bottles, usually from 7-Eleven. If I want sour gum, I go for Chews. Fun Dip is also awesome. That is not even counting when I want chocolate. Then it's a tough decision between, Aero, Caramilk, Mars, Twix, or Smarties.
  8. Next scan: EGM2 Issue 2 from August 1994 to replace the horrid version currently on the site. The first scan with my new HP Photosmart C7280 All-in-One. The great thing about it is it will auto crop the document for you, and most of the time, it gets it perfectly on it's own. Less editing in Photoshop
  9. Snoozefest. I wish Capcom would give the same kind of makeover to a good game. ie, a game that isn't a snoozefest fighting game
  10. Welcome! I hope you are not one of the fanboy tools I always see on Kotaku
  11. I would scan it as part of tha magazine, though I know there is a section for supplements like these. Maybe it could also be released separately. Are you editing the scans yourself, or do you need someone else to do it? Myself and others are willing to help if needed
  12. So all the devices would plug into the receiver, and then an HDMI cable would go from the receiver to the TV for video? I was thinking that maybe everything would plug into the TV, and then an HDMI output would go from the TV to the reciever. So I should make sure I eventually get a receiver with lots of HDMI inputs? The TV I am looking at has 4 itself
  13. I look to be getting a plasma TV soon. And eventually I want to add an HD home theatre sound system. However, I am a tad confused about how it is all hooked up. With the old school stuff, audio and video were carried on separate cables. With HDMI, it's all in one. So If I connect an Xbox 360 or PS3 via HDMI to the plasma TV, how do I get the surround sound to the home theatre receiver? Is it a matter of an HDMI output on the TV going to an input on the home theatre? I know a digital optical cable is an option for most things, but HDMI is best for carrying full HD 7.1 surround. So without using that, how is it done?
  14. Can you private message the list to me as well. I love the old stuff that I grew up with. Back when the wrestling storylines actually made sense to the "sport"
  15. Fantastic stuff And I should really get around to playing The Minish Cap.
  16. I've heard of the red line of death on a few forums. They aren't as prone to die as the 360s were, but there were still a lot that died. My parents first PS3 died from overheating. Their replacement one has worked fine so far, though it froze on me when I was visiting.
  17. They probably would only service systems that are made for use here. Since the Jap console is for Japan, chances are Sony would tell you "tough luck. Go and buy a $500 North American black console like you were supposed to in the first place", since they can't really refurbish and resell the white one here. I know if you have a broken PS2, you send it to them and they send you a brand new one instead of fixing yours and sending it back. Possibly the same for the PS3.
  18. That's why cartridge based systems will always be awsome. The game is saved on the cartridge, so your machine could die 100 times and you wouldn't lose all that tie you wasted playing
  19. No, the problem was Nintendo, and their restrictions on third party publishers that said that if they publish games for the NES, they cannot publish for any other system. That is why apart from Activision and Parker Bros., every SMS game in North America was published by Sega. Of course, Nintendo's tactics were eventually found to be illegal, which is why the Genesis had fantastic 3rd party support. None of this applied in Europe, however, where Sega had full third party support, and easily trounced the NES over there.
  20. Yes. FFVII was good, and at the time very impressive. But as soon as I played VIII, and then IX, VII wasn't that great anymore. It was good, but not nearly as good as the overhyping of it suggests.
  21. I just changed it I also added/changed logos for Atari Age, VG&CE, Mega Play, Nintendo Power.
  22. If it is only $25 beans to mail all those EGM2 issues to me in Canada, then I would like to take then in for scanning. Send me a message letting me know how you want the shipping costs (I am assuming paypal?) I have nothing to scan, while people like triverse already have too much to scan
  23. Not only would I pay customs, but FedEX/UPS/any courier would charge me an additional $20 for the "convenience" of them taking care of things at the border for me. Hence why I never buy stuff on eBay that is shipped by Courier.
  24. So who here wants to take off their clothes?
