I bought Great Battle III for Greg and myself around Christmas time :D Never come across discussion of it on a forum. It's not the greatest beat'em up on the SFC, but, come on, medieval Gundam beat'em up? I think so :D

Yeah, I'm yet to sit down with that one yet, just tried the Cowboy one (and it's not great tbh).

Banpresto tends to be style over substance a lot of the time, but I do like the style. :o

Asuka 120% is certainly a fun, underrated fighter. It's kinda nice to just have a two button game every once and awhile, compared to the complexity of fighters nowadays like SFIV and such.

If it's 'like new', the answer is: a LOT.

This game is very hard to get in collectors condition, last one on ebay sold for €300 (mint) condition.
I only collect games in collector condition, so near mint/mint, then you gonna pay for that :wink:

Yeah, that's not too bad, really. I was bidding on a complete copy a couple of months ago, and if I remember correctly it went for a little bit more than that, even! Enjoy, it's such a great game :D

Well if that's what a decent condition copy is going for these days, I'm off to stick mine in a safe.

It's pretty much mint and I won it on YHJ for £55 less than a year ago.

Seriously, 300 euro? Sometimes I think these auction prices (especially ebay) are totally inflammatory. I'm sure the game isn't worth that much (it's only half good too.)

Got a Laseractive in a trade for a S-video modded Genesis 8) Its kinda dirty at the moment but it will soon be cleaned and I will mod it for s-video for LD playback and RGB for game pacs

And a buddy gave me a free copy of Triad Stone to celebrate the occasion. Also got Alien Soldier again after selling it off a few years ago, paid half of what I sold it for (which paid for 2/3 of my Ketsui)

Picked up this low miles (70K) minty E30 BMW 325i cabriolet.

Of course, it went directly into the shop for the obligatory timing belt replacement and valve adjustments.

BMW makes/has made some amazing cars- but that whole interference motor thing still scares me :P

How much did you grab it for?

I payed 5K for the car, which I think was a fair deal considering the car's full service documentation and condition. I've always been a fan of pre-1992 BMWs (this is my third), but the timing belt certainly can't be ignored. The rule with E30s is: If you don't know when the timing belt was changed, you need to replace it.

Keep the timing belt changed and the valves adjusted, and it will last 300K+ miles.
