The Wookiee Arcade / Re: Battlefront (PS2)

WOW my head is spinning, so freaking much going on in this game.

Now that the lag and server screw ups seem to be somewhat fixed (I hope):

The vehicles (x-wing/TIE) totally suck and very hard to control
The vehicles(tanks/speeders/spider/AT-ST) very cool, fun to demolish stuff
The vehicle(AT-AT) if you buy this game for no other reason this is the reason-totally awesome.

Mostly been playing with all the dif characters.  My fav are  the missle launching guys.  The droideka is REALLY fun to roll around in-but takes a few tries to get used to the controls.  I still can;t figure how to get the jetpacks working on the clones(I think you;re supposed to be able to use it on the green trooper)

I suck, I think I kill more of my own guys than anything (and myself-cliff jumping on Rhenn Varr)

Fav boards-Hoth and Kasshyyk Docks

Least Fav-Rhenn Varr-I get lost

Only thing I don't like is there seems to be less strategy than in a SOCOM game, more just run around and shoot stuff

Thing I do like.....running around and shooting stuff. ;^)

See you online and in my sights!  (and Scoundrel-I think I saw you running around once before I got booted offline.

What are you guys finding on prices for the rares/VR's (outside of the outrageous ebay prices)???

Curious, a comic store in PA sold me a Bossk, Dengar, and Veers, for $2ea. which I thought was great!  (I actually threw a few $$ in extra)

Here's my recap so far:
Just curious.  I bought 9 boosters, in which I have NO doubles of R/VR.
Probe Droid
Dewback
Slave Leia
Emperor
Obi-Wan
R2
Bossk  (bought an extra Bossk to use as a prize at one of my meetings)
Greedo
Lando

I'd like to just try to find the other r/vr and buy outright, to me spending the $13 ea. pack now is pointless since I have ALL the common/uncommon in the 9 boosters I bought.

Having a SW get together in Pittsburgh, a www.pswcs.com and www.thejawa.net/pitswcc meeting.

Anyone in the area interested let me know  bobafett.fourteen@verizon.net

Time: 1PM until whenever
Always have a few games/prizes, SW stuff on the widescreen, "show and tell"(everyone brings stuff from thier collection to show.  Lots to talk about-DVD's, CIII, TV specials, new mdse., etc.  Also trading as always.

Afterwards will have Battlefronts on the widescreen and miniatures both going in the gameroom.  Have about 12+ RSVP'd so far.

Should be a blast as usual.   (see you there Jesse)

Man just hrs. to go.

To me this is probably one of the best times for SW in the last 10 yrs.  Ranks pretty close to the movie premiers and Celebrations.  DVD's, SW miniatures, all kinds of mdse. roll-outs, and Battlefronts.

I took the day off just to veg and enjoy it all.

I'll be on PS2 as well, under bobafett14.

Hey quick question....I tried the demo disc from PS@ magazine, not only does it not work but for whatever reason, now when I tried to play SOCOM last night I log on but keep getting kicked offline about every 2-3minutes.  I get about half way through the first game and then all the guys just start running in place and it boots me back to the main menu.

I have a wireless router, and have  had no problems up until just last night.  Could the demo disc have screwed something up? was my cable just lagging last night?? what else could it be?
 
Any help would be greatly appreciated.  For the love of god I just want the system up and running when Battlefronts hits next week.

Got 2 more boosters todya, out of 5 boosters now I have:

1 extra rare Emperor
1 extra rare Stormtrooper on Dewback
1 extra rare Probe droid
1 rare Lando
1 rare Bossk

not too shabby.  The uncommons and commons were split up pretty good, have a large amount of those with fairly few doubles.

Hmmmm, I may break down and buy a few more boosters, if I get any doubles on the rares, try and trade them for others I need, then maybe break down and try and buy some individually if I can luck out and get some rares under $10ea.

My thoughts are once you get a few boosters you'll just start getting the same crap over and over.


Even at only 60 characters, this could get ugly...fast. and they have another clone set coming out shortly after. Sheesh.

My staff on the Ithorian scout is also severely bent.  Probably gonna be a common problem.  I know it's like that even with the petwer line -most of the lightsabers ship bent or even broken.  Hard to keep somehting so thin in perfect shape.

I saw pics of the wookie soldier with some kind of stick/spear in his right hand, mine doensn't have it?  anyone else or am I just losing it?

Rebelscum just featured an auction on their homepage today 3PO/R2 pans.

No inserts or anything, just the pans.

Posters are great
Comics are fun and inexpensive, great art
Trading cards are also in abundance.

SW Food/food related items are possibly my fav. (also anything you can find in a grocery store, toothbrushes, Puffs tissues, Dixie cups, etc.)


Hard to pick just one category.

Celebration III / Re: Star Wars Celebration 3
« on: September 10, 2004, 09:49 AM »
CIII has been posted all over the place.

No major announcement on tix sales or anything, just exhibitor info.  Show hrs. are interesting  open til midnight Fri and Sat. movie veiwings I presume(exhibitors close around 7ish I think)

Booth fees for vendors are up, bages are running $90 for the 4 days, and last year the prices were the same for attendees (so we'll have to see if $90 is it)

Lots of time to setup on both Mon. and Tues.  Anyone want to go in on a $49,000 booth? ;^)

Cool, I hadn't even seen the "cheaper" foil pans ( the R2/Vader auction)

The pans are cool, trust me-worth every penny.  Just really cool collectibles, plus there are a lot of cake pan collectors ouot there, so similar to categories like Lunch boxes, they are great cross-collectibles.
Surprised to see the vader at $41 holy crap, Fett at $51 is understandable-he's a tough one.

I totally suck at SOCOM.  I'm lucky if I play all night and get a kill. 

The whole reason I bought SOCOM in the first place a few weeks ago was to just get the PS2 online hooked up, make sure the system works, and get some practice in, even if it's not the same game ;^)

The 3PO is the one I need.  I love  these pans

Basically I've been trying to get the cake pans with an insert.  Anything over that is gravy. 

Occationally a boxed w/insert and instructions- pan/set comes up on ebay for an arm and a leg.

I've lucked out, I recently got the Fett pan w/insert for about $20+a few $ S&H, Vader and R2 both I got under $15 w/insert.

I'd like to get the instructions, but not really a big deal-if I find em at a toy show or something great, but I'm not breaking my back for instructions.

I always like the quirky SW stuff.
