Well, after a long hiatus, there's a good chance I'll be rejoining these hallowed message boards. For anyone who remembers me, and was wondering where I was, a mix of personal life, university junk, and cheap Dreamcast games threw me off of classic gaming for a while... however, a recent trip to the thrift stores has rekindled my interest with some interesting finds! I happened to find Rampage for the SMS boxed with manual, as well as three Leisure-Vision games (all with manuals, 2 with boxes) (I suppose this is off-topic... but is the Leisure-Vision compatible with the Arcadia 2001? From what I can tell, this is the Canadian version or somesuch)

Unfortunately, my exam period is not over yet (3 more to go...), but after that, my life looks to be quite empty again, so I should have the time needed to get back into this hobby Since it's been so long, I'm not too up-to-date on some of the more recent happenings (although I've tried to keep an eye on the AA news)... what can people tell me about this X3V0LuX game? For example, what is the game about, and how do I go about pronouncing it's name? Zee-vo-lux?

Well, it's good to know that at least a few people noticed

Luckily, I'm almost done my degree... next year, I'll only have 2 classes per term, plus my thesis, so I should have a decent amount of time on my hands (I've been doing 5-6 classes per term so far). Of course, I'll be looking for a full time job soon enough, but that shouldn't kill my internet habits.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that I finally found an Atari 400 today as well! Some jerk cut the RF cable on it, so I'll have to replace that, but otherwise it seems to be in great condition.. hooray!

Cheap Dreamcast games are nice, but how about dirt cheap Game Gear. Some Toys R Us's near me have been blowing out their Game Gear games brand new sealed for just 99 cents. My buddy only picked me up 3 games, but I told him if he sees any other TRU blowing them out, just to buy every copy of everything they have.

Yeah man, you've missed alot! Adrian bashing Gamecube w/Xbox, a huge discussion on the ET landfill (were you here for that?), and um... Moycon and the wierd things that happen around him...

I would think so. That is a pretty long running joke.

If not he soon will I am sure!

Sandwich? Either I wasn't here for that, or I've completely forgotten (video games have ruined my attention span... hell, I don't even try to read some of the threads that have extra pages to them!). Either way, anyone care to fill me in?
