    A PS2 controller and a PS3 controller.  Both work perfectly.
     
    Normally, I'm not a dumpster diver.  But this was an interesting story.  We've been busy preparing my parents' house for sale.  The estate sale is complete, and now we are cleaning up the house to make it look nice.  The garbage service was cancelled months ago.  But the garbage company never came to pick up the cans.  But they do still pick up recycling, so I've been putting recycling in the bin.  So I'm doing that yesterday, and decide to look in the (should be) empty garbage can.  It's full!  But sitting right on top are these two.  What is it with people?  Who would assume they can fill someone elses garbage can? 
     
    I went ahead and decided to bring them home (I need to haul the garbage out too).  After thorough cleaning, they work great. 
     
    My wife thinks they are stolen.  But I figure someone just dumped them along with their other trash.

    Its on my homebrew wish list; my wife likes to get me these for my birthday and for Christmas, so I usually don't go out and buy them myself.

    My schedule recently changed so that I have every other Friday off. Lucky me, I went to the P.O. box this morning to find my long awaited copy of Bentley Bear's Crystal Quest. Starring Bentley Bear of Crystal Castles and Atari Karts fame, this Pokey enhanced game was originally intended for the long-delayed XM add-on. Atari Age and Bob DeCrescenzo finally decided to move forward and put it out with the Pokey chip instead. I've avoided playing the rom via emulator as I wanted to be surprised. Early impressions are that this is one great platformer for a console starved for that genre. It also strikes me as one of the most ambitious homebrews undertaken on the 7800. I can't wait to play more.
     
    Have you played Crystal Quest? What are your thought?

    Tomorrow is a special day!   D&D nerds worldwide celebrate Gary Gygax day!


    In honor of Gary Gygax (a man who profoundly changed my life and hobbies) I will be streaming the entire run of the Dungeons&Dragons cartoon!

    I will start them at 8am CST and go until 8PM CST tomorrow (and as long as it takes to finish the series).

    Come by and say hi!

    Just a heads up, the site requires Flash to run so Firefox wont work. 

    EDIT:  RickR says it works fine on flash if you use this link:

    The package I have came with the mono version as well, and you're right...it is preferable to the old stereo mix.  But the new stereo mix is really good.  The music (especially bass and drums) really comes to life.
