Newest addidtions

Got some new games for Playstation 2 last week. Broken Sword - The Sleeping Dragon and Prince of Persia - Warrior Within. Got a 2 for 1deal on Ebay.
Also got two controller extensions for Sega Mega Drive. Can also be used on Amiga and Commodore 64. Also bought on Ebay from China.

Think I forgot to mention that I got RC Pro Am and Kung Fu for NES a couple of weeks ago. Both in small boxes that were in not the best condition.

Also got 11 GameBoy plastic cases for the carts. Also from Ebay and China, so they are not original cases.

And I also downloaded Amnesia - The Dark Descent for free on Steam.

REVIEW: From Russia With Love PS2

Being a big Bond fan, and From Russia With Love being my favourite Bond movie, I just had to buy this game when I saw it.
Must confess that I didn't know much about it. Was it good? Was it just awful? I had no idea. I just wanted this game in my collection.

The game opens up with a nice Bond intro in the same style as the movies and looks very good, showing of some of the original cast and some new cast for this game including Natasha Beddingfield.
Bond himself is voiced by Mr Bond himself, Sean Connery. The other cast from the movie has just the likeness of the old actors but are voiced by other talent.

You can both play single player and multi player, I only played the single player campaign.
There are 14 missions in single player and every time you start a new mission you can change difficult settings. There is 3 different difficulties, Operative, Agent and 00 Agent. I choose the default Agent setting throughout my play through.

The game is played in 3rd person view and also have have a couple of driving segments.


The graphics are very good for a PS2 game, in my opinion. I think it looks very good in fact. The likeness of the actors is very good.

So is it any good?
Yes. It was maybe a little too easy on the Agent difficulty and wasn't that long but still I enjoyed playing this. They taken elements from the movie and also added new stuff.
The only problem I have with this game is the driving segments. It really isn't that good. It's very easy to loose control of the car. It's like they tried to do what GTA does, but is far from as good driving control as that game.
But in all a good and very enjoyable game.

Some new stuff

Got some new stuff sent to me from Germany. Two games, Demolition Man for the SNES amd Four Players' Tennis for NES, 10 dustsleeves for NES, Gamboy game cases, a Playstation 2 DualShock controler and two German NES manuals, Top Gun and Mega Man 3.
So now I have complete german versions of those two games, game, box and manual.

Some new games

Been away for an awesome Foo Fighters concert, even thou singer Dave Grohl fell off the stage and broke his leg in the middle of the second song but he came back and finished the show, in Gothenburg (read about it here) and came back to find some new games in the mail I ordered.

Gears of War, Gears of War 2, Mass Effect 2 and Aliens: Colonial Marines for the Xbox 360.

Davis Cup World Tour, Champions World Class Soccer (both missing intructions) and NFL Sports Talk Football '93 (complete) for Mega Drive and GTA III for Playstation 2, which I already had a broken copy of. Hope this is better.

I got all the games very cheap from two diffrent guys on Facebook. Only 10 NOK* (about €1,15 or $1.29) each except Aliens wich I payed 20 NOK*.

So a pretty good deal.

The start of my own Blogg

So I just decided to start a blogg about my Video game collecting.

First thing, let me introduce my self. My name is Anders and I'm a 34 year-old swede living in Norway.
I started collecting games about 4 years ago after discovering Angry Video Game Nerd and Pat the NES Punk on YouTube, and I also found my old Commodore 64 and Amiga 500 in my basement at that time, so I thought it would be fun to collect games. I also had a Nintendo Wii, Playstation 1, 2 and a PC, but had sold most of my games for those systems. Stupid!
But yeah, then I decided to start collecting. Mostly bought C64 games at first, cause they are pretty cheap but soon I bought other consoles.

Now I have 12 consoles/computers in my collection. PC, Playstation 1, 2 and 3, Xbox 360, NES, SNES, GameBoy, Wii, Commodore 64, Amiga 500 and my latest console Sega Mega Drive (Genesis).
I also have games for GameCube (which I play on my Wii) and for N64 (my next console to buy?)
I will not do a list of games I have here. Maybe in a future post. But for now you can go to my backloggery page to view my games http://backloggery.com/andyk81.

So what will I write about here?
Not sure yet. But I will write about my recent buys and about the games I play. Maybe do a small review. I'm also in the planning of making a text adveture for the C64, maybe Ill write something about that.

So yeah, that's it.

Hope it will interest someone.

Next post I will write about my most recent buys.
