2023 Haul Thread: I know what you played last summer

Not just arcades but in the late 80's and early 90's Sega was equally impressive during the 16 but wars. Those were trying times, my friends.

Thanks Derek!

The OG Outrun is still a blast to play.

Dem gamez, featuring everyone's favorite Battle Monsters!!! Actually quite a few hold-out crossed off the list here. Prehistorik Man, Silent Hill Downpour, Peak Performance, Charlies Blast Territory.

Peak Performance is a drifting based Ridge Racer type of game localized by Atlus and given a lame name and crap cover art to make sure that people would thoroughly overlook it.

The figure is from the game/anime series Gungrave.

I enjoy Battle Monsters quite a bit. Playing against another person definitely heightens the experience.

No one got the physical of Lies of P?

My RTX 3060 Ti was starting to get its arse handed to it by Forza Motorsport and Starfield, so it sort of accelerated my need to purchase a better card for my 1440p desktop. I already have an EVGA 3090 XC3 Ultra in the living room PC, connected to the 4K OLED. I was hoping to get the EVGA's 3090 FTW3 for the living room and then slide the XC3 to my desktop, but people are still asking too much for those cards. So, I ended up picking up this EVGA 3080 Ti FTW3 card for $600 off of Craigslist. Now I have 2 of the last EVGA high-end GPUs they had released, before pulling the plug on making graphics cards.


Just look at the size of the boxes. The cooler on the FTW3 is much larger than that of the cooler on the 3090 XC3 Ultra.

Lotta grey tapes, not enough black tapes, and one circular tape.

I dig these Lotus games, they are really overlooked for 16-bit racing. I just wish they had music during game play. Flushing out more hidden SNES gems lately and hopefully some more Genesis ones soon.
