I'm back (I had to wash up and make a sandwich afterwards). What'd I miss while I was gone?

How can you put Miracle Whip on that sandwich?

Edit: I forgot you're vegan so what... exactly... is on that sandwich!?

Sticks.

And dirt if we are feeling frisky.

But mostly sticks.

Quinoa. Obviously you are a granola hippy (sometimes referred to as a crunchy hippy).

I cook it. And honestly find the Red to be much better tasting than the white.

I meant the creamy white sauce on the sandwich, morans.

I loved this game on DS so this one is on my list when it drops. 1200 isn't that bad, but I already played it once on DS so I can wait for a sale. I have to save my money for that Mars table.

I just submitted my review for SECTION 8: PREJUDICE, which should be posted early on Wednesday; all I can say, is I don't understand why this hasn't gotten much coverage.

Because Section Eight sucked, and because XBLA multiplayer-only shooters are dead in two weeks.

Please forgive the intrusion, but we're starting talks about the first DVD Talk multi-table poker tournament in Full House Poker next Thursday, April 28th. Please head over there if you're interested.

Just as a note, many of these are available with the Sega Collection for the 360 (which is one of the best values on the system). However, I am tempted on PS2 for the achievements, and then the other two I quoted (cause they aren't on the Sonic Collection). We'll see.

Also, Outrun Online Arcade is being delisted later this year. Everyone on CAG is excited about Virtual On being on sale, but I don't understand the appeal.

I've never really understood the appeal of Virtual On either, but oh well. I liked Outrun Online a lot when I played it, just the last time I went to buy it, it was at 800...so I held out. BTW, anybody know when this Sega sale lasts until? I just want to make sure I can hold off til Friday or Saturday.

Also, if you have the arcade versions of the Sonic games, you can do the lock-on stuff with Sonic & Knuckles, which you can't do in the Sonic Collection disc versions.

Very true and good point. Honestly though, I don't love Sonic enough to want another version just for the lock ons and the achieveos. Phantasy Star on the other hand is a different manner. But I noticed Gunstar Heroes on the list of sale too. I don't think that is on the Sonic Collection either. Is the XBLA version any good?
