Yea. Those trailers still give me goosebumps. I wish I'd got the limited edition because I want the soundtrack now and it's not available on iTunes.

Not yet. They are going to start adding 360 games to the back-compat list very soon though.

Excitebike got some good reviews in it's day. I was on a Left Field Productions games kick. It came out in 2000.

The Capcom collections have metagames where you get points for various things you do in each of the games. I think there are unlockable games too. Also, Sonic's Ultimate Genesis Collection has something like that.

The Eagles/Cowboys rivalry is pretty funny, and this division is pretty dreadful. We're 4-4 now and in second place. AFC South is looking rather bad too, looking at the standings.

I was going to wait too, but when I saw that $300 price tag, my impulse-buy trigger was pulled.

I avoided the series at first, but then one summer I gave them a go, and was really impressed. I played through 1 and 2 and then Mark and I played 3 and didn't stop with that one for like three months. Hoard Mode was endlessly fun to play co-op.

Interesting.

I started with the Playstation game. I think it was their fourth, but I hear it's kind of a remake of the first Road Rash. I have the first three on various collections, but have only played a few minutes of one of them on Genesis. I'd like to check them all out for real sometime.

Argh! I need to get a PC going for games. So much cool stuff.

Thanks for reminding me of that Bugbear game Ridge Racer Unbounded. I was playing their FlatOut series the other weekend and couldn't remember the name of that one. I have it and will play it sometime. I just noticed their next game is tentatively called Wreckfest and their trying to raise money to bring it to consoles (it'll be on PC first). Here's their page: http://nextcargame.com/#toggle-id-2

Also, thanks for the Black Friday links. I'm looking at a 49" HDTV for $149 for my friend Mark. I'm going to check it out tomorrow, but maybe these deals are only on Black Friday? That would make sense. Ah, I need an excuse to go over there anyway.

i got Costume Quest 2 as well. I need the first one now. If only it would get discounted like 2, I'd start it right away. 

I saw the Bond flick. I liked it. Not amazing though. 

It comes with Gears Ultimate. Is that just the boxed copy? I got a download code for Gears Ultimate with my Xbox One, but I didn't notice Judgment at all. Maybe it's accessible from within Gears Ultimate?
