The music is sounding great as well. I really love the first track here! ---

I’ve had a copy sitting on my shelf for years, pretty sure I got it cheap from Game Crazy, but never actually cracked it open until now. I found someone’s maps in here, and they’re amazing. I love discovering stuff like this, you can really tell the person who owned it before me loved it. Anyone else find interesting stuff like this in their games? ---

That’s AWESOME. Love the fancy writing and care put into the map. I totally love finding this stuff as well. Hand drawn maps make me so nostalgic. I actually love drawing maps for games (last one I drew was Sweet Home on NES), as it really makes you feel engaged with the game and gives you a big sense of accomplishment. ---

That’s awesome. Whoever owned that definitely loved it. Wonder why they sold it? I have started keeping my receipts with every game I buy. I figure someday when my collection passes on to someone else they’ll have a good time seeing how little I paid for some of these games. lol! ---

> [@GraveyardDuck](#): > > Anyone else find interesting stuff like this in their games? A long time ago I picked up a bunch of Amiga & PC LucasArts adventure games from a charity shop. My most lucrative find so far. They all contained period guides and walk-throughs: either torn out magazine pages, and printouts from USENET.

That’s an amazing haul, and in beautiful condition. A bunch of my Genesis games have high scores written in the booklets as well. Sometimes it’s fun to try and beat their scores. ---

Told my daughter we could play a game this morning, and when I asked what game we should play, she said “DINOSAUR GAME!” I ended up putting Jurassic Park into the Genesis. I played the everloving crap out of this game when I was a kid, but boy is it janky now. You really feel like you’re fighting the controls the entire time, the graphics are muddy with choppy animation, and the camera swings around like a drunk Euro-Platformer on the Amiga. That being said, I had lots of fun chomping dudes as the Raptor, and my daughter loved watching it. I still prefer this game to the SNES one. Sega CD JP is the secret best ---
