    MAGFest 8

    I don't see myself in the 1st post as attending. I told y'all I'd be there (and DJing) awhile ago, right?

    And cerrax: you have room in your room still? I got a sleeping bag.

    Edit: Not sure if I'm coming from Pittsburgh or New York yet; depends on how I spend my last week of December. 8-)

    Hammer: It's looking decreasingly likely that I'll be in Pittsburgh the last weekend of December, so it's best that you find different transportation down there if you haven't already.

    I will, however, be coming home on Sunday the 3rd, so you're more than welcome to come back with me then. 8-)

    Yeah we need to update the first post. It would help a lot of people find rooms and rides and would also get a clear idea of what events are going on before and after MAGFest.

    Yes plz.

    Turns out I'll have a lot of vacation days left over this year and might be able to make the NYC Meetup & LAN party. Who can give me more details on those? Would it be 2 days in the city doing cool things or what? :razz:

    I'll need to know so I can tell Hammerman if I can give him a ride from Pittsburgh or not.

    Hey all.

    I already posted in the other thread, but I'm pre-regged & driving down from Pittsburgh, PA!

    Don't know when I'll be leaving yet, but I hope to be there for New Year's Eve and come back on Sunday the 3rd.

    (There is a New Year's Eve mini-concert-block again, right? Although, after last time... :wink:)

    Edit: Cerrax & nonsensicalexis: What're your plans? Could we carpool?

    a new connection does not a better picture make.

    Well the fact remains that it is new...

    I don't understand why the did it (esp. when the GameCube had a digital out...)

    --But anyway, I already updated you on my current goods for sale.

    Kinslayer: People are looking to sell quite a large number of the items you requested in the first post:

    Donkey Kong Country 1-3, $15 each [deathbyspoon]

    Super Mario All-Stars, $10 [deathbyspoon]

    Megaman X, $10 [deathbyspoon]

    Chrono Trigger [maxfrost]

    Donkey Kong Country [maxfrost]

    Metroid Prime (no manual, non-original case) $10 [Majin GeoDooD]

    Metroid Prime 2 (no manual, non-original case)$10 [Majin GeoDooD]

    Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker $15 [Majin GeoDooD]

    Now then...

    Okay, I want and am looking for:

    ::SNES::

    Megaman X2

    Megaman X3

    I have a shop near me that's selling X2 and X3 for $50 each. I could buy either of them for you and mail them for an extra, say, $5 if you want.

    ::Gamecube::

    I am looking for a reasonably priced Gamecube system, preferably Platinum(the silver one) with a controller and all parts for running(analog adapter preferred but not necessary.

    Metroid Prime

    Metroid Prime 2: Echoes

    LoZ: The WindWaker

    LoZ: Collectors Edition(Has LoZ, LoZ II, Ocarina and Majora's?

    I'm looking to sell my GC system (with controller too). It's black, not silver, but I'll throw in a GBA player (with disc) and my S-Video cable. :< I could only get prob $20 max if I sold it locally, so any offer above that would be accepted.

    Regarding Prime, if you don't take of Majin's offer, your GameStops and other outlets should have Prime 1 for $8-10 and Prime 2 for about $15, I think.

    Awhile back I saw the Zelda Collectors Edition in that same (chain of) stores for maybe $40-50? If it's still there...

    BTW, Prophet, in addition to the GameCube, I have something new to sell:

    ::computer/music electronic stuff::

    Xitel Hi-Fi Link AN1 External USB soundcard

    See http://www.xitel.com/usa/prod_hflpc.htm

    No manual or box.

    Also, could you please take my used DS off the list? I've received no replies and I've somehow lost it :|

    wiicube is just the same plugs that a gamecube has =)

    No it doesn't; it uses a new AV port (the first time it's been changed since the SNES).

    MEETUP! 6/27-BALTIMORE / Distant Worlds: music from FINAL FANTASY

    Great concert, great to see everyone. FF6 full opera was definitely the highlight, though I did walk away with a new appreciation for FFXI's score.
    They did it?

    FUCK! :-x

    But

    . If I find out they did the FF6 finale too, though, I'm going to cry.
    Also reminder about two other big things coming up: We're hitting up 3 videogames live shows in DC then 2 days in Pittsburgh (July 10,11,12), THEN we're running Jamspace at Otakon again, plus having 4 bands out there play - This Place is Haunted, Armadillo Tank, Rare Candy, and Random (Megaran9 guy).

    You're coming to Pittsburgh, Dom?? We're planning our own mini-meetup for VGL on July 11th. See this thread. SInce I couldn't make this concert and I can't make Otakon, it would be really awesome to see you and the rest of the MAGFest crew there!

    Lost: The Final Season

    Happy I stumbled upon this thread, after the old one died (I think).

    I was pretty disappointed in this episode. After last week's ridiculous amount of epic, this episode kinda sucked. Also, Miles is probably my least favorite character. But Hurley trying to write Star Wars was pretty funny.

    Yeah, the interplay between Hurley and Miles (and now Dr. Candle) has been pretty funny this season (though it could get old reeeeal fast).

    I've always found Miles' flashbacks boring, but this episode wasn't a total waste IMO. [spoilers]It was nice to get an extended look at Dr. Candle and all his, ahem, doucery. And Faraday came back (where exactly did he go again...?)![/spoilers]

    Also, I probably mentioned this to some of you already, but check out Ack-Attack's blog. She hosts group live-blogging and discussion about each episode. And her recaps are hilarious. :lol:

    My favorite quote of hers: saying she "would bang Desmond like a screen door in a hurricane!"

    Edit:

    Stuff like that is exactly why I've never gotten into Lost >_>

    It's just the nature of the show, every time it answers questions, to raise even more ones. I don't think they'll ever be done--not even after the final episode.

    I actually got into the show after my old roommate rented Season 1 on DVD. This was while they were airing Season 3. I eventually caught up with Season 2 that summer, but to this day I'm missing big patches of Season 3.

    At this point, I've just admitted that I can't know everything and if I'm not understanding something, there are plenty of places online where they can explain it for you.

    I don't think his music is that great. Certainly not Michael Jackson great. I don't like him on his own stuff, but I like him when he's on other peoples' beats.

    I wasn't comparing his level of greatness to Michael Jackson, just the craziness that goes along with the music.

    That being said, I missed tonight's episode... Any good?

    Nintendo DS

    Just started Chibi Robo for DS, and it's fun so far. Even though it's totally different than Pikmin, it has something of a similar feel for me.

    I started Chibi Robo: Park Patrol awhile back, but I got like 2 of the other characters before losing interest. I never played the GameCube one so I can't compare it to that.

    With all the talk of the DSi, I'm still waiting for the chance to try it hands-on before I even think about upgrading my Lite (a red-lidded one that kind of has a matte body to it anyway). I've give up waiting for GameStop to upgrade their kiosks... :-x
