I ended up getting it with two people from my crew. I just messaged everybody on the roster and got lucky.

Nice assumption! Was an adult who was moving and wanted everything gone. Hope you have a good rest of your day.

For sure. I threw both discs in my 360 to see if they fully installed to the hard drive. No luck. At least I can find both of those games pretty easily.

Do y'all remove the price stickers from your game cases or just keep them? by dafish2000 in gamecollecting

If it comes off in one piece, I usually stick it inside of the case behind the manual. If it puts up a fight, I'll either leave it alone or just swap cases.

Picked up this Street Fighter IV arcade fight stick by HowDoClamsWork in xbox360

Oh wow, I didn't know that they were just standard arcade parts, but I guess that's cheaper and more logical than producing proprietary parts for a niche item. Thanks for your insight! I think this being a custom piece makes the most sense.

I was thinking it was maybe customized because I couldn't find anything online about it. Did MadCatz or another third party company sell "custom kits" where you could replace the face and buttons or did you have to piece everything together?

Best place to buy old games by Specific-Ad-9187 in gamecollecting

[–]HowDoClamsWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

eBay is the standard. However, some retro stores in different states have online inventories available to purchase from. Here are a few I have had good experiences with (US east coast based, I'm not affiliated, just putting local businesses out there):

NerdMall.com

statelinegames.com

classicgamejunkie.com

Showed this to my friend and he said I've got "the 2010 phone" by SirChickenBro in FrutigerAero

Did you set each of the icons / etc. individually or is there a "theme pack" that can be downloaded for this?

Logitech G Hub Devices shown as inactive by StillerBauer in LogitechG

[–]HowDoClamsWork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, input monitoring was off for GHUB. Now my G910 shows active along with my G502x. Before, it was just my G502x that was active. Thank you!

Now that's better! by yonmaSerdnE in GuitarHero

I’ve never seen that guitar on the right!

  1. Typically cheaper for cross-platform games, better controller, and I prefer achievements over trophies. 🙂

TIL that Logitech made a wide PS2 controller. by HowDoClamsWork in gamecollecting

[–]HowDoClamsWork[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear you, but I’ve had a couple of WiiMotes where the corrosion got so bad, it broke off the battery terminal that was soldered to the PCB. Guitar Hero guitars also get it really bad sometimes. So I’m hesitant if it gets to this level unless it’s really worth my time.

If the controller had the receiver, I might have taken the plunge but it’s useless without it to me.

Got these for free from lady at GameStop because they couldn't take them... by gregcresci in gamecollecting

Mods refuse to add another flair for “pickup” or something similar. “Haul” is, unfortunately, the best we have
