Immersion Therapy Stack of Shame: Tempted

Tweet UPDATE: I just got an email from MadCatz, offering a replacement dongle, in response to an email I sent them last week. Great job, MC! This week, I spent too much time NOT playing games.

Restocking the Shelves

Restocking the Shelves

Tweet This last weekend I took a trip around my local used video game stores. I had recently come into possession of a $5 spare GameCube from a garage sale.
