New spare

I keep on trying to find an extra used tire for the 15" rim for my Corolla so I can have a full sized spare.  Already have the rim, just need the tire.

Sega Saturn binge.

[Medic_wheat]

Need to remember to get those two outrun games for the Xbox.


Also that don pachi game for the Saturn looks like fun. And isn't cheap.

[Gypsy]

Outrun 2006 is stupid overpriced for the Xbox version. If you can find it for cheap that's cool of course, but the PS2 version runs a lot less.

OutRun 2 is great fun btw, already have hours into it.

DonPachi was $30 so not too bad. The load times are gnarly though (PS1 version is better I think, but I don't have a Japanese PS2 yet).

Wow $30?  Why the hell do I keep seeing it on eBay for $120 ish.

Do you really know how to search ebay? First, you're probably thinking of DoDonPachi, since you can buy DonPachi right now for $48 including shipping.

But even for DoDonPachi, there's a BIN right now for $86 shipped.

You don't get $120 unless you're trying to buy both at the same time.

Huh, shouldn't be that much even on the Bay, though I haven't looked there much lately.

Those prices make a bit more sense.

[Medic_wheat]

Just looked it up. Wow. This was a $20 dollar game. It feel as though sellers are hyping the Ferrari angle. Where I couldn't care less. Only if it is a fun driving game.  Well that's one game I probably won't be picking up.

[Medic_wheat]

Oh that's not a bad price. Was I thinking of the PMG arcade copy?  Maybe that's why I had a different price in my head.

[Gypsy]

PS2 version can be had for $20 and under with patience (bins are more). I spaced on bidding on a copy last week that sold for $2.32 + shipping. Doh!

That's more like it. Are they are differences between the Xbox and PS2 port. Game play and performance wise. Not "eatery". Wise.

[Gypsy]

Minor differences probably. Xbox version might look slightly better, but not worth the cost difference imo.

[Mathius]

PS2 version, plus Outrun 2 on XB is the way to go. PS2 version runs a-ok as well.

The Xbox Coast to Coast version and the XBLA arcade HD version are great too.

I have the XBLA version myself, which is great!  Too bad for digital stuff getting yanked so often.
