For me I like 2 much more than 3. Two really feels like a Splatterhouse game, whereas 3 is more of a beat em up with gross monsters, which is still cool. I just like the atmosphere and difficulty of 2.

nice on terranigma! I'm a sucker for original cartridges, as that one is obviously the reproduction one, but it's a great game regardless!

I recently got a shipping scale from amazon using my gift credit (if you want to know how I get credit all the time, PM me), so now I don't have to run to the post office to ship packages all the time.

2nded.

III doesn't really bring over the origin splatterhouse feelings anymore. two is a good game, but never comes close to the original.
Tho' the pce SH is a good port, i wish they had brought over more of the gore details in the back grounds from the arcade version.

Here's what I've picked up over the past few weeks...

























That last SNES cart is Ys III.  It's too bad the label is ripped (I wonder if I can print out a new one...) but it was dirt cheap and the game plays fine, which is all that really matters to me. :)

how rare is that PS port of MGS. i never heard about it until i saw your pic. then im watching this youtube video and this guy mentions it as being pretty rare

it's basically the "bleem!(cast)" version for the Dreamcast with smoother textures/graphics and uses a swapdisc method for playing the game on your Dreamcast. It goes for $10 new on ebay right now.

It's actually a Bleemcast disc for Dreamcast.  It allows you to play MGS on your Dreamcast in a higher resolution.  The game looks a lot nicer.  You still need the PSX version of MGS to play though.  You stick the Bleemcast disc in, it'll boot up then ask for the actual PSX game disc and run off that. 

It's not very rare.  I bought it off ebay for $10 shipped.  It looks like you can still get it for $10 off ebay: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_sacat=0&_nkw=bleemcast%20metal%20gear&_sop=15.  And I picked up MGS from a local used stuff store for $5 (It's the greatest hits edition, but complete). 

It's an official release, but Sony's lawyers shut them down pretty quickly.  They released discs to play Metal Gear Solid, Gran Turismo (I think both 1 & 2), and Tekken 3 on your  Dreamcast.  I bought the Gran Turismo one bitd (and even then I think the disc cost $5-10) and played the heck out of it.  Everything 3D in the game looks noticeably better.  Only recently did I pick up Metal Gear Solid for the Playstation, so figured I'd get the Bleemcast for it as well.

Yeah, that clock is pretty bitchin!  I've always wanted to try out UmJammer Lammy.  I still enjoy PaRappa the Rapper every once in awhile.
