Daryl F. Gates Police Quest Collection : The 4 Most Wanted - The box is a little beat up, but oh well.
Mortal Kombat 3 - Again, the box is a little beat up.
Microsoft Baseball 3D 1998 Edition - Bite me, it was 50 cents. lol
Lemmings - The box is in great shape (all things considered) and it has the manual and 3 5.25 disks in there.
The Gunsmoke Collection : 20 Episodes on 10 Cassettes - I like radio shows, what can I say. :P
That Gamecube Zelda double pack with Ocarina of Time and Ocarina of Time Master Quest
Sonic Adventure 2 : Battle for Gamecube

And, last but not least, Star Wars Galaxies : An Empire Divided. Damn thing has the manual, a Quick Start Guide, a little miniature figurine, a button and a patch. It doesn't have the art book though, but meh. I don't give a shit. The box is in decent shape, though there is a bit of discoloration (or maybe it's dirty. I don't know.) and there's a noticeable blemish. But it was 8 bucks, and I kinda/sorta liked the game when I played it back when.

Daryl F. Gates Police Quest Collection

Cool


The Gunsmoke Collection : 20 Episodes on 10 Cassettes - I like radio shows, what can I say.

Me too, I have tons of it in mp3 format, Sherlock Holmes, The Goons, Agatha Christie, Dad's Army, Dimension X and a few others. I've never heard Gunsmoke but it sounds interesting after reading the Wiki page.


That Gamecube Zelda double pack with Ocarina of Time and Ocarina of Time Master Quest

Maybe you have a rare version. Seems yours is made by Atari.

[SRG]

Not a Gunsmoke fan, I prefer Have Gun Will Travel, Paladin would have kicked Marshall Dillon's ass. If you are a Jimmy Stewart fan he did 39 episodes of a Western called The Six Shooter

I think I have the Zelda double pack, as I recall it was a preorder bonus for Wind Waker, they claimed that it was up rezed I played it for 20 mins, looked like shit and I kept running into stuff. I really need to find my N64 and finally finish OoT. Turns out I was at the final Gannon when I gave up on it...

Yeah, I'm thinking about snagging an old Walkman or something to use with my FM transmitter to listen to the tapes in the car from time to time.

I used to have a boatload of those older radio shows ... the one I listened to the most was Superman oddly enough. :P

Maybe I'll luck out and there's an Android app or a podcast style RSS feed for them somewhere where I can just snag them that way.

It looks like shit because it was originally an N64 game. There aren't all that many games from that era on the consoles that actually look good. I did play a little bit of it some years back, and I never had any problems with the controls though, I just ALWAYS end up getting sidetracked when I play a Zelda game. heh

Me too with OoT. I know it will WOW me when I get into the meat of it and it is on my "to complete" list but I've started it and done the Deku Tree 3 times on different platforms, so I need to give my self some time at some point to play it properly.

Just snag them from archive.org, if you use Firefox and DownThemAll it will save a few mouse clicks.

Search the site for Gunsmoke and you'll find more, this is just a sample.

I got it for myself for Xmas '98, my company shut down for 10 days between Xmas and the New Year, so I went and stayed at my GF house for the 10 days and played Zelda. I got to the Gannon part in the temple where you have to grapple between the corners cause he destroys the platforms. I could never survive this fight. After talking to co workers now who were kids then, this is the end, or very near it.

I feel you Mike, I loved this game when I played it then, I think my GF and I ended up breaking up or taking a break, because I played OoT so much. I remember she wanted me to watch Allie McBeal with her and I refused she said I watch your crappy shows... I continued with Zelda ;)

I must have issues with Zelda, I played Wind Waker daily when it came out, got to the water dungeon in the middle of the ocean. Finally beat it, thought all right game over, nope congratulations you just found the first of the whatevers find the other x number. I was like Eff that. I had climaxed. On Twilight Princess I got to the village with the ghosts? and you have to find them as the wolf? even with internet help I gave up after awhile...

[SRG]

Oh and what Mike said about archive.org, great site. My iPod has 45 gigs, I bet 20-25 gigs is old time radio :)

Also on Archive.org worth downloading, episodes of Computer Chronicles. Best (only?) tech show of the 80's and ran through until 2001. They don't have anywhere close to all of the episodes on archive, but they have enough to keep you glued to the screen for several days. And be sure to read the archive.org user comments on each individual show as someof the episodes are missing the dialogue audio tracks. As someone who actually use to watch the show when it aired on TV I can vouch that they actually screwed up on several occassion when they were making the show and the dialogue audio simply never got recorded, which is really sad. Still a great tech show.

Just got (all Atari 2600. And cleared that pawn shop out of what they had left.)

And they actually did have a 6 switch 2600 ... wanted $69.99 for it though. I'll be damned if I'm spending that much for JUST the system. Fucking ridiculous.
