Just to add to my previous list I found some more retro bargains, again at a local charity shop.

Loaded - Sega Saturn

Colony wars - PS1
Battlestations - PS1
Firestorm Thunderhawk 2 - PS1

And on opening the cases found there were extra discs in there too for Wipeout and LMA Manager.  I love charity shops  :D

I've been doing some emulating recently with Fusion 364 to check out games I haven't got or couldn't afford for the old Sega Consoles and I picked up 2 today for pretty good prices on Ebay for the Mega CD

Batman Returns
Soul Star

Laird will know all about Soul Star as he gave me a demo of it on the Jaguar! sadly that demo has never played for very long so I thought I'd try it out on Mega CD, luckily I found it for £20 on ebay and Batman Returns for about £14!

Anyone got any suggestions for Mega CD at all? I also thought it funny so thought I'd share that someone is listing T-Mek for 32x on ebay for a little under £3000 for PAL... holy WTF!! lol

how is it different on the Jag? I've played both versions now and I must admit I can't remember any GLARINGLY massive differences? Other than the fact that the Jaguar one just decides to stop working when it likes lol

Yeah I'm sure the platforming sections won't be that great but hey, it looked alright on MCD lol

EDIT! I just looked up Soul Star footage from the Jag and they do look pretty much identical, just that the Jag has higher res graphics, the sprites are cleaner and perhaps made using a different technique than the standard sprites in the Mega CD version

thats what I mean, like a hd makeover or update for a newer platform, would've been nice to see the finished product

More lucky than busy really. I'm just glad I decided to walk between client appointments instead of getting the bus otherwise I may well have missed out on them. Also very lucky that my friend was getting rid of such great stuff too.

aaah yes, sorry the obvious one was Soul Star, but I guess I thought you meant that some titles had made it to market rather than incomplete

That really sucks! I can't believe someone would steal a game at an event.
