That cassette thingie is a must have for me! I have a pretty big collection of cassettes from various folk musicians and other groups that were never big enough to be commercial or have since disappeared off the face of the earth and will never be found on CD. I had a cassette player in the Outback, but the Forester only had a six CD player. I do have a working cassette player in my boombox, but I don't know how good it is.

Ah, jury duty! It seems like everyone who doesn't want to serve gets picked and those of us who would love the experience never will. I'd get excused for any trial involving domestic violence or rape, though. I have family members who have been victims and I know I wouldn't be able to be impartial.

For me, it depends on the game. Some games, like the Ratchet & Clank games, make going after the achievements fun (for the most part). Some games, like a lot of rpgs, the achievements seem like they're tacked on just because the game needed to have them. I've learned to go for the ones that are either fun or increase enjoyment of the game and ignore the rest.

I think most of us have experienced "Achievement Fever" where we obsessed too much over achievements and lost sight of the game at least once.

I really like Blood Dragon, I'm just not very good at it and kept dying in the same spot. I'll get back to it one of these days.

He's getting into hiking, so I think I'll get him a gift card to Eastern Mountain Sports and an Applachian Mountain Club Guide to the White Mountains.

My laptop doesn't have the juice to play real games, so it'll be a copy for the 360.

I've had The Last Remnant recommended to me by a couple of people. I think I may have to go on the hunt for it, because it looks like my plans for an end-of-the-year purchase of a PS4 are not to be.

You need to play Lost Odyssey! Probably my favorite RPG for the 360.

Is that the R&C reboot? That's the only thing my 17 year old nephew would tell me he wants for Christmas. He kept saying "I don't want anything" or "I don't need anything" when I asked him. 

Very jealous of the Sega gizmo. I have a Game Gear and four games that I found at a Salvation Army thriftstore many years ago and paid ten bucks for, along with a case. The sound doesn't work, but everything else does.

Feeling so very late to the party in regards to the current generation of hardware. I'm still completely last gen due to financial issues, with the exception of Matt's old 3DS that he gifted me last March for my birthday.
