    Microsoft sent me roughly half of a launch team 360... i'm still waiting for the other half.

    Edit:

    Who can forget the Official Microsoft POGs from the E306 invite?

    Hah, that Tetris board game looks like a piece of crap. Needless to say, I would snap it up in an instant if I came across it. :P

    That reminds me that I picked up a Tetris board game last summer myself. It's fairly modern, so it's kinda fancy. It's got a big plastic tower a la Connect Four (but much more elaborate), and it's got a bag full of plastic Tetris pieces. The instructions offer a few different ways to play, but it's basically a matter of filling up the tower and whoever completes the most lines wins (there's tabs on each side to flip when you get a line). It's even got plenty of corny sound effects and lights to indicate what kind of piece of play and your time limit to drop the piece. It's amusing in a "I'm playing real life Tetris" kind of way, but other than that it's not too thrilling (but then I don't find Tetris the video game that thrilling either).

    I got a cheezy N64 35mm camera that work's in sunlight only.
    Also got a cool picture of Bloodrayne I won in a contest for Tip's N' tricks a few years ago.

    I have the Legend of Zelda board game, which I found at a thrift store for about 3 bucks. Quite an odd little board game.

    I also have a Super Mario Bros. towel. I feel like I've had it forever, I remember when I was little I went to the beach with it.

    I had a donkey Kong Arcade puzzle as a kid.

    Currently, I have a trucker hat that Terry Bogaurd wears in his games and it has a snk playmore tag on it.

    Should be fixed now, thanks for the heads up. I just switched servers so there were a few lingering problems.

    I've got boxes of this stuff, i'll see what i can do about getting new pictures.

    Oh, and i've been called worse, don't worry about it.
