Actually Jib, it was one dude that was insulting to him as Necro pointed out, most every other post in this thread is people offering their opinions in a rather helpful manner.

Greedo, I think Cylo was way out of line and he should apologize.

Having said that, some of your responses are way too sensitive and do not help the situation either, (which explains my smallest violin photo).

How about you just take any negative comments like a man or ignore them?  Dare I say, dish it back out once in a while? 

That would be way better than letting everyone here see you proverbially do this:



Either way, don't take your ball and go home.  Stick around buddy.

Aye... gotta have the mettle to take some flak from time to time around these parts. No one here is above it, not even the oldbies like Necro and I (and you too, of course, MG).

I don't mind the flak, and I can take it. I work in an emergency room and get treated like crap on a daily basis there. I just think there are a few bad apples here and people really should be respectful in a adult manner. Now I don't mind joking, and language. I'm a guy afterall, I have a bad one. It's just all the unnecessary bashing and rude remarks. We collect video games for gods sake. What is there to be rude and angry about?

I'm not going anywhere. And I'm sorry if I offended some people. But it has just been negative remarks, pm's and such since I came back here. I have met a few nice people here. I just don't feel as a whole there is a bunch of positive energy in this community.

May the Schwartz be with you all!

In my experience... asking people on an internet forum to be respectful is like asking a terrorist to stop killing people. :lol:

It's cool to want the Turbo version if you know what you're getting and not getting. Long before any kind of Turbo collector price inflation, we offered the same advice to people looking for hard to find games. DEII is one of those games people often treat like a RPG and assume they can't play it in Japanese. The cinematics are cool and add to the overall experience in either language, but the Turbo version is just Working Design/Samurai Pizza Cat-ized and not really translated. Even when people were looking at spending as much as $50 for the Turbo version, we'd recommend the fully playable PCE version.


Greedo, if you want to try the arena with friends then you shouldn't wait around and just do it in the PCE version, while continuing to patiently search for a decent priced Turbo copy.

Seriously, you guys?  According to all of you, is there any LEGITIMATE reason to want to buy the more sought-after Turbo titles?  Can anyone come here and ask to buy something that's worth any money with getting drummed out of town?  He offers $200, so he must be some a$$hole who needs everything right now, blah blah blah.  But if he had offered less, or asked for a "good deal" then you guys would be jumping on his ass for low-balling the community.  In the mean time, guys like this, or like that MooseMan dude could turn out to be great members of the community if you guys didn't get the torches and pitchforks out every time someone wanted to buy anything but dirt commons and PCE hueys.

Jumping on the flaming bandwagon was fun for awhile, but I'm really starting to see why this place has the reputation that it does.

I will say that I bought the PCE version thinking the language wouldn't matter much. I will be the first to say that I really don't enjoy playing it much because I can't immerse myself as deeply into the game without understanding the story. I think think the importance of the plot story development is greatly downplayed with these games.

About the only genre I have found that this isn't an issue is with shoot'em ups.  To each his own I guess, but I don't fault the guy for wanting the turbo copy. Especially since he is willing to pay a fair price.

Okay so let me see if I am understanding this right...

Two people get a bit mouthy on a single post
More than two others offer respectful help
This forum has over 3200 members
At least 200 of them are active participants
So... 2 out of 200 users = 1% of all active members
That leaves 99% of the active users, let alone nearly 100% of all members in total

...and this place is negative?

I PM'd ya but I don't think I was dick to ya, maybe you are sensitive or maybe just a weee bit high on yourself  <<scratches head>>
You came white knighting in to speak up for mossy and then told us what we are doing wrong when all we are really doing is sticking up for our system & games and trying to have place/community that is not like ebay or kijiji.
Ya it comes off harsh sometimes but I keep on saying… come into new place using some common sense and you will do just fine.

I will buy your PCE version. You can take that money and get the turbo version. I'm serious, i didn't realize until reading this thread that you dont need to have the game in English to play it. Let me know if you want to sell it

ohh, and my comment was more of a joke. no hard feelings

...and this place is negative?

I can see the ops point, just recently there has been a theme of people offering some sort of dollar value for a "rare" or desirable game.  Said person then gets flamed.  I think its really mainly in this particular part of the site ( buy/ sell ).. Kinda funny really given that's what this area is for. 

Its all being done to protect the over inflated pricing of TG games, and i can understand and appreciate that, but on the flip side i know that this forum and its members are really getting a bad name outside in the rest of the world, and while i dont care if people think the forum is a shit place to buy and sell, i do care that people may not come here and share their experiences, homebrew skills, whatever it maybe ( look at nintendo age, its soo cool that every now and then someone who was an original developer on some game comes forward and share his experiences, ive seen that only once i think here, id hate for people to think we are too much of a bunch of a$$holes to waste time coming here with that sort of stuff ).. 

Aside from the guys who gave advice about the jap version ( i too didnt realise it would be as playable in japanese ), the rest should may take a back seat ( said in the nicest possible way of course) for a while, theres so many positive things going on in this site with member raffles, combiar sessions, sparkys labels - boxes - inserts, and a great homebrew area that we should focus on that and let these types of post slide by quietly.  At the end of the day if a private trade happens then it really probably doesnt hurt the general market pricing, infact if more private trades happened with pricing hidden and encouraged then the general pricing on ebay might not inflate so quickly.  Just another way to look at it maybe.

It does seem the negative stuff is more associated around the US stuff, the PCE side of it seems pretty quiet when it comes to prices. ?
Looking for (MINT ONLY)
US Manual : Magical Chase, Shockman 
US Box : Turrican,  Soldier Blade, New Adventure Island, Neutopia II
Other : Sapphire OBI, Turbo Play Aug/Sept 90, April/May 92, Turbo Edge Spring 90

I tried the pce version, and although it IS playable, I'd prefer the USA release myself as well.  I kinda like the storyline and all.  DEII is one of the best, IMO...but I am also the guy that feels Beyond Shadowgate is THE BEST game for the Turbo.  lol.
