PS3 or 360?
by Pete Ashdown 20 Feb '08

20 Feb '08

Anyone else got a PS3/360 for Christmas out there that wants to share gamer tags? I haven't bought Xbox Live Gold yet, so I don't think I can do anything there, but my PS3 tag is "Darth_Poobah" and my 360 tag is "Darth Yogibear" (the former was taken much to my dismay). Looking for someone to try this online Joust with.

This is Dave Widel's kit from a few years back. This thread cropped up on KLOV and Dave chimed saying if he got 20 interested parties, he'd possibly do another run @ $250 each. The count is up to 37 or so right now, so there is a good chance it will happen. If you are interested, post to the thread. If you don't have a KLOV account, I guess you could email Dave and get in that way. http://www.widel.com/ http://forums.klov.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Board=UBB3&Number=5344… -- Sean McLachlan

I saw this on the KLOV forums and had to share. Scroll down to the pics, then post you own horror stories here. http://forums.klov.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Cat=0&Number=635896&page=0&f… I don't have anything close, but I had picked up a game once that had no keys to the back door, but the coin door was open. I reached through the coin door to take the back lock apart and when I took the back door off there was a huge spider web in the corner and a spider the size of a dime sitting on it, mere inches from where my hand had been fumbling about. Still gives me the heebbie jeebies thinking about it, but I'm a wuss about spiders. -- Sean McLachlan

Tron parts?

Bert was kind enough to sell me the Midway mini he picked up at the "Valley Music Disaster of 06", and it's going to live again as a Tron. If anyone has a joystick and spinner with wiring, or a dual amp board I'd like to buy them. I've got everything else I need, except the marquee, and I think I'll just have to print my own and make do for that. -- Sean McLachlan
