This Months Haul~August Edition

[Giltch]

Porcupine Tree - Deadwing

Thanks to station82o for turning me on to this band.

It was either this or Katamari Damashi, which I found for twenty bucks without a GH label on it. I could only afford one or the other, though, so I got this.

KD came out at that price, and will likely never be a GH.

To sum up my month so far.







For all of this I paid about 40 bucks.

I must say, that's a damn-good haul.

I already have all the DVDs. I got that pack for the box and extras, it was only $9.

memories...



My 1st new game system (had a 2nd hand Atari), man that was a great Xmas.

Made me a Sega fan for life.

Me and a brother got hooked on the SMS when I was 11 and he was 7 at a friends house who owned one. So we bought a SMS later that year and loved it but that was 1991 and we found out Sega would be discontinuing it. So we sold it and my parents helped me, my bro and sister save up for a NES. SMB, Duckhunt, Mega Man and Zelda were bliss but now and then I would still think about playing Alex Kidd, Psycho Fox, Hang On and Safari Hunt.

So in '97 when I was a junior in high school I had a Master System yearning again and bought one and some games at a pawn shop. But still no Psycho Fox or Alex Kidd. I signed onto the Sega Master System mailing list (RIP) and finally found my two favorite games and I haven't let go of the system since.

wow

Morphix has 208 posts in the last three monthly haul threads. The best part about it is that I enjoy the things I buy more than he does. That's awesome.

Wow, you got a system with 3D goggles included? Lucky. Also, I forgot to add, 3D Space Harrier has an amazing tron-like bio mechanical level that is just beautiful.

Yeah, me and my brother sold ours in 1991 when we found out Sega wouldn't be making new SMS games anymore so our parents helped us buy a NES. But now and then I would still have a SMS yearning so 6 years later when I was a high school junior I bought another at a pawn shop and tracked down Alex Kidd and Psycho Fox on ebay (2 games that if we'd owned at the time we had our SMS, we wouldn't have sold it, our friend who introduced us to the SMS wouldn't let us borrow his Alex Kidd, Psycho Fox or ANY of his SMS carts bah)

Just goes to show, it's not the system, it's the games which always keep you coming back.

Anyways, fond memories of Hang On, Safari Hunt (better than Duck Hunt with more variety), Alex Kidd and killing enemies with Birdfly in Psycho Fox. Ahhh. I think I will haul my SMS down to my brother's next time I visit him for a nostalgia trip.
