Good Will Hunting #1

In a continued effort to bring a diverse amount of content to the blog, I have decided to start a new little series called “Good Will Hunting”. Recently, a brand new Good Will store opened in my town and after visiting it for a second time, its pretty evident that some decent stuff is going to come into it on a semi regular basis. I think I may visit it twice a month or so, but every time I pick up something video game related; I’ll post my findings! Let’s begin:

I love boxed PC games. Especially when they are a $1.99 or less.

Today’s findings were quite nice actually! I picked up 7 different PC Games and all of them were boxed! All of them were priced at $1.99 or below. The games I picked up were Darkstone, Diablo, Quest for Glory V, Sim City 2000, X-Wing Alliance, Zork Nemesis and Nox. As of today, I’ve pretty much decided that PC games are a new area I can expand out my game collecting habits to, as I use to own a good chunk of them. I wish I still had my boxed Lucas Arts games…Out of the ones picked up, I’m excited to try Quest for Glory and X-Wing Alliance. Alliance is the only X-Wing game I never played in the series and I broke many a joystick with both the original X-Wing and Tie-Fighter. Ah, memories.

Honorable mention:

Last time I stopped in the store, they were selling an Atari 5800 with a few games and one controller. It was priced at $99.99 and I had very high doubts that it would sell at that price. The 5800 is one of the few consoles I don’t own, so I was interested in it at first glance. $99 bucks though? Hell no! During my visit today, I checked to see if the Atari was there and it didn’t see it. Hopefully it went down in price between my visits and some sucker didn’t drop that amount of cash on the console…

    I knew you’d be the first one to comment on this. 😉 I should let you do guest posts on your good will findings. I was pretty happy with the QFG pickup. Turns out this copy of Zork is for Mac though…
