My weirdness is that I don't finish new games, but then go and 100% old stuff like Open Season and Lego Star Wars.

I liken this to what I used to do to make music mixes. I would collect favorite songs from albums I listened to over a year and then cut the list down to a single hour of music. The resulting mix was so intensely enjoyable to me, it would drive me totally out of my head! I want to do this with games too.

That sounds cool. I have several Genesis collections already though, but it's still neat.

This isn't new areas but in Just Cause there's sometimes a sort of glitch where a person will get stuck standing on your car. Once I hit a motorcycle and it must've been stuck underneath my car for a while, but when it finally got unstuck, the rider popped up and stood on the hood of my car and stayed there no matter where I drove. Another time, I hit a car with a flat bed truck and the person flew out and into the bed and walked around back there stuck but still alive while I kept driving. I like little weird events like that in games. It surprises you.

Hearts of Iron looks like a good translation to PC of those WWII board games by Avalon Hill I used to play. Age of Wonders I found out about when looking up Triumph Studios because of their Overlord games on console. Damn, I've got to get a gaming PC up and running. These are must-play games for me.

I played a demo of it when it came out. I still want to play it.

I replayed Big Red One not too long ago. Yes, it is awesomely good.

At some point I want to go back and do a complete achievement run of the first game and then play 2 and 3. I have them all now, just need to fit them into my schedule.

I'm glad they look good on an HD TV. I still want that Atari one.

Some of those joysticks have such cool designs. The Arcade Gold Featuring Pac-Man one has a running Pac-Man on it. You can find all these games still being sold on JAKKS Pacific site here: http://www.jakks.com/tv-games-products.html

Awe cool. They have a Star Wars Original Trilogy one in the shape of the Millenium Falcon!
