Found out the Defender cab just needed a new power cord - I'll tell ya, that's harder to track down than you'd think. You have to be careful, it is very addicting. I started out with one, then two, and all of a sudden I was up to 25 games. I have since trimmed it to 20, but even selling those 5 was ...

Going to PAX 2007?

If so, you'll _definitely_ want to bypass the lines and pre-register: http://pennyarcadeexpo.com/registration.php For those who don't know, PAX is the premiere for-gamers-by-gamers convention in the US. I had a lot of fun last year and this year promises even more of everything. This year they've ev...

Thanks for all the great tips Raz, I'll look these over in the coming weeks as I plan on really getting into this as soon as spring hits. Looks like I've got a few tools to buy and a lot of reading to do. The unit appears to not be getting any power at all, there looks to be a row of red LEDs but th...

Restoring Defender

Just picked up a non-working Defender cab and was wondering if anyone could give me some pointers. Here's the skinny: The game was "just working until we moved it to the other room" according to the previous owner, but now nothing comes on when plugged in, not even the marquee light. Any ideas here?...

Hey Raz, I'm in the same boat with GoW. I'm trying to get it all wrapped up before the sequel hits. I can't recommend this game enough. I actually just started playing this game last week but am almost finished already (which for me is an extremely short period of time)... My girlfriend is still tot...

If you haven't seen it already, the new Game Informer has the <ahem> "World Exclusive" article on this. Very good treatment as always. The cover also sports one of the best SW covers I've seen in a long while. Definitely worth picking up if you're not a subscriber already.

I've been in dozens upon dozens of game stores up and down the westcoast (and a few back east). Local or chain, it really doesn't matter. I think what is more endemic of how you're treated is the caliber of the individuals themselves. I swear, I've met some of the coolest cats you can imagine at Gam...

I didn't realize the Cherry one was rare, it's the one I've got, ha. Yes, as a separate controller it was only offered for a very limited time before they stopped and just went with the standard black version... but the sequel comes bundled with it, so I'm sure the eBay prices have dropped on it, b...

Holy wow! That's a good deal! Theres some good stuff in there, well except for Risk, and I dunno if I would consider Guitar Hero for the PS2 as "classic gaming" just yet. Hehehe... yeah, not really (but boy is it fun)... I picked up the SG Controller at a GameStop on the way home. If you look at th...
