Good bye games

Well a few people asked me a question along these lines “Why are you getting rid of yours stuff ?” and “What are you selling ?”
The second question will be answered in the fullness of time. But first up the answer to the first question
Ive decided to become more of a games player and less of a collector for several reasons

Well the first is a bit obvious, its more fun, having games is one thing playing them is another
Whats the point of having hundreds of games and only playing one or two ?
So ive decided to only keep the ones that I like and get rid of those that I dont

The second reason is the space issue
All them consoles take up a lot of space and the games can take up even more.
What was “A broom cubboard of games” is now “A few boxes in the broom cubboard”

The third is a bit about my current income
Being jobless dont pay that much, ok some of these games wont fetch that much but every little helps (in before get a job)

The forth is more of a emotional reason
I dont have any fond memory's of the stuff im selling
Most games I have ive had for years (Nights, Gunstar heroes, Teddy boy, Yars revenge Etc etc)

Its gonna be hard getting rid of some of them
But still its gonna be more fun this way

You must be this small to play

As a nipper I remember looking up to a big thing with things that looked like bears that had been dipped into black paint, I am of course referring to the classic known as Space Invaders.
I remember standing on a small stool(Not as in shite as that would not make much height difference and make my shoes smell) and then pushing in a ten pence into the coin slot (where can you do that now and still get a game ?) then starting to play only to die quite fast (I didnt know what to do).
Time past (a few weeks) and I was finaly able to reach the controlls and so I was finaly able to play the game unaided, BUT ! I kept growing (or they started shrinking) and so a new problem started I was geting to tall to play any of the arcade games with out becomein a hunchback I tryed to use the stool mentioned earlyer but I could not ballance it on it.
So theres a new prob, I am too tall to play this is a major prob with Konamis nackering "Fighting Maina" where I cant reach the bottom pads.
So now im stuck.
Im too tall
What do I do ?
Cut my legs off so im not as tall ?
Or give up ?
Maybe that is one of the reasions why the arcades are disapireing ?

Damn it (Disgaea DS rant)

Why the bloody hell did they put this on the DS ?

Its truely one of the most evil time consumin games inexistent
Nothin I was meant to do has been done
Instead all ive been doin is lvlin up my charicters on this near endless game (It has a end as such but the end of the game is just the start)

So far ive had it two weeks and I have spent over 130 hours on it
Thats 130 hours of my life on a game
If i had a job it would rly cut into my game time

Its like revistin a old friend that has shrunk

Oh well
Back I go to it

Breakfast rant

Ok not every body in the world will know what a "Full English" is (it can be wikied) but I will explain it in my own little way
Basically -

• Beans
• Fryd egg
• Bacon
• Hash browns
• Mushrooms
• Toast
• Sausage
• Optional drink of eather tea, coffie or fuit jucie for the health freaks

But on to the rant-
Its mostly about the way that it is made and served

Now there are some things that big stores do wrong and that is

Presentation -

From Asda

From the Tudor cafe (in Stockport town center)
Both are the same price

Asdas is just randomly placed on a plate with that "cant be arsed just want your money way"
Where as any decent caff will know that the beans do not go over the rest of the food and the food will be stacked nicely.

Look of food -

Ok so a black puddin may not look to nice (it is dryed blood after all) but at least if the food looks nice it will make other people want it.
Looks at the food in the big chain store (Adsa) pic the bacon looks like its the last in the pack (mostly fat) it all looks stale and unaptising.

Atmosphere of the place -

Its hard to be cosy in a massive super market
The way that you have to get your own coffee and your own butter by the time you sit down to eat it its gone a bit colder and theres always somebody there tryin to get past you
Cafes tend to be small the food is allmost always brought to you and there usealy is some random banter that can be had with the person that brings it to you

Taste -

Ok this is the most important
Asdas always tastes of there "value" range of foods (a tin of baked beans for 9p) as said the bacon is mostly fat, the sausages are hard to cut with out a chain saw, the eggs yoke is hard , it all has a "Cant be arsed" taste to it even the damn toast is cold and tears (rubbish for putin butter on) when tryin to butter it
Where as any decent caff the yoke will be runny, the sausages can be cut without loads of force, the bacon wont be mostly fat the whole thing should be moist with out bein to moist.

Well there you have it
It you want a decent full english avoid big chain stores/chain caffs and go to you local caff (it also supports the local community by helpin keep these placeis open)
