Quote from: Mai Valentine on December 11, 2025, 01:28:05 PMI really liked the Xbox One but I sold it to my roommates when I got divorced and had to move out because they had a bunch of Rock Band songs on it and I didn't want to be petty about it so I let them keep it (they paid me what GameStop would have paid for trading it in so it was pretty fair all around). I wanted another one for a while but honestly now most of the games are on PC and I can still use my Xbox One controller so I don't see a point in getting any Xbox console.
That's no a fun scenario.  Sorry that happened.  @Mai Valentine  I've been there myself.

Rock band... haven't played that in forever either... probably a good 15 years.

We might need a post on that game, @retro junkie - I completely forgot about it.  It looks like it had pretty good ratings.   Launched December 2006... man... time sure flies.

Thank you for posting the explanations.  The Turbo Grafx 16 mini was something I missed and wished I had purchased.  It was a balk at the time... kick myself  ???   And Gates of Thunder should have been included lol... HOW DARE THEY?!  And yes, a bit surprised they included Lord's of Thunder and not Gates (maybe there was a licensing or other reason).

I am planning to reply to your Retron GX post soon.   There are a couple questions I have between the Mega Retron and the Retron GX.  That post is coming soon.

PS... I love Darius and have tons of variations of Darius.

I have an Awesome memory of playing Halo: ODST with @SpartanEvolved @Grindspine and @mastermario.  We completed the entire game during a LAN session.  This was tough... maybe even grueling to finish the game in 1 night.

I also have fond memories of playing Gears of War 2 and 3 with several others... and I believe @SpartanEvolved as well.   Halo Reach... same thing.  Those were really awesome and fun times in Gaming.

I noticed the Super Pocket Capcom Edition on Amazon is $59 right now... which is 14% off.  Don't know how long that will last.  This system has a pretty cool blue and yellow look.

I was hoping Rick Henderson would go on sale.  So far is has not and is still at the $40 mark.  I'm interested in this game... was hoping too pick it up for a discount.  I might pull the trigger at the price for the physical edition... just not yet.
