Several boxes, plus some real legit titles and a few stacks of random disks without cases.

I even think I have the Namco Pistol somewhere for Time Crisis.

I can get an adapter that'll let me play it on my 65" 4k tele don't you worry :grinning:

All the more reason for you to drag yourself to my house, painting session and classic games :grin:

The only thing left at mums is my old 360+games, and once I have a decent gaming area set up I'll be setting up a load of equipment in-tandem :smile:

Nice! I had forgotten about the gun!

I need paint to turn up yet (Wraithbone spray), and I have like sixty quids worth of contrast that I want 😂

I can barely even find space to assemble models and you're building a gaming room. What is this?! 😂

Its only a concept room at the moment.

I've just bought a new car so thats going to take some out of the pot.

I'm overdue an upgrade to my mouse, so thats about £100, I need a new keyboard at £130 and my tournament level headset died two days ago (big rip, loved that thing) so thats another £110. My moniter is basically the same quality as an GameBoy Colour.... Its all too much :disappointed:

It's still ridiculous! =P

I find it difficult to believe you actually need all those things, whereas you're very overdue a hobby tool restock 😉

Ultimately the only thing that needs replacing is my headset, because now I have no comms, and playing team based games becomes much harder when you can't communicate :/

The rest are just niceties, but are long overdue replacing anyway, the mouse I could get away with opening up and cleaning, speaking of which I'll need to borrow your hex-screwdrivers at some point to do so :grinning:

Yeah, granted, but would a cheap pair not do the job?

Mate, I bought them cheap to fix someone's iPhone mic like 7 years ago or something, I haven't the faintest idea where they are! 😂

No a cheap pair most certainly won't, the 7.1 directional sound means I can hear everything and where it is, gives me the best use of the ingame sound. I used Sophie's headset and it was the most tinny sounding thing I have ever gone through.

Bugger, well if you do lay your hand to them let me know :grin:

Oh man this hit me straight in the feels. Loved that game. Insta made me think of when you beat the knife boss dude near the start and he says "the girls at the top of that tower..... she must be dead by now"
Amazing games.

Ah, fair enough!

If I have them, they'll be in one of the boxes still in the wardrobe. Maybe. 😂 I think they were only a few quid of Amazon, but I also thought they were for specifically for Apple products, as they had different screw types to everyone else?

I have said to a few friends that once all this pandemic is over that we'll all get together and have a classic games night, they don't make them like they used too.

I actually have @pawl to thank for getting me into games.

@pawl you are ofcourse invited to this games night, but you never drag your lazy behind here, I'll even drive you :grin:
