Pro Evo 6 on the PS2 is still a cracking football game.
Ok matey not sure if I have that one on the shelf or not ?
@@OGDuffy my happiest memory of it was working in an indie games shop twenty years ago. One punter would edit all the proper teams and kits into Pro Evo and allow us to copy his file. We had an in-store tournament. There was a proper cup draw from a bingo machine we had borrowed. People would like into the store when the games were on, some people thought we were watching a real game.
The final was a Roma Vs Ajax epic. 3-2 to the Dutch after extra time.
Don't suppose you still have that ps2 memory card with that data for pes 6??
@@GarySmith-go5vb sadly not I'm afraid. The shop closed down in 2005.
Bloated head syndrome 🤣🤣 i really need to play theme hospital duffy buddy 😂 I can't remember much of that dredd film, il have to watch that again. I love the bust a move games, loads of fun bud antman and wasp great film 😄👊
Honestly matey pick up Theme Hospital you’ll love it ! Such good fun. I am a huge Judge Dredd fan always have been and that film is a great portrayal 👍😃🍻
Killzone 2 was always my favourite.
Good stuff
Must give it a play sometime 😉🍺
Theme hospital was ace ❤
Have fond memories of that game 😎
Just found your channel mate! Its f❤❤king great!!!!! Love the videos im hooked
Cheers matey 😉🍺 And welcome to the channel 😉 Drop new videos every Friday at 6pm and others in the week too.
Look forward to reading your views and opinions buddy 😎
If you are up that way again, hop on the Northern Line and head for Tooting Broadway and Crazy Thumbs.
I am gonna visit Tooting in the future as spent a lot of my youth there as mum had a flower shop and my nan had a cafe in the indoor market. SO spent loads of time there... 😀🍺
Love the video! I'll say this, never pass up specific FIFA's. FIFA 19 on the PS3 is a lot of money now £35! Most FIFA's as you say are toot, but the last ones released are not. So keep your eyes peeled.
Glad you enjoyed the video matey😎 Fifa is the bane of my life…. As you say the odd version fetches a decent price so always worth a look 👀 😎🍺
I didn't have Wii Balance Board back in the day... but one arrived today in a Vinted special!
Nice on matey…. Set it up and get on there…. Always good fun when it creates your Mii character based on your real weight 😉🍺
Last time I went to my local scope charity shop I picked up a PS4 console for £50 got to love❤ charity shops
PS4 for £50 …. Bargain matey 😎🍺 Nice find buddy 👍
@@OGDuffy well I've been back to the same shop today and picked up Zelda Twilight Princess and Harry Potter and the Deadly Harrows pt1 for the Nintendo Wii for an amazing price of.......... £1.00 each boxed and complete with manual❤️👍😁
@@sobek_2012 Thats the way to do it buddy 😎😎🍺🍺
@@OGDuffy unfortunately no drinking for me as I'm always driving😭🚘 lol
Me and my spouse used Wii Fit (with the board) a lot back in the day. Not so much anymore. :)
I remember it being really popular back in the day… Used to live the Mii character changing shape in accordance with your weight 😂😎🍺
Hi OG how are you doing mate? Great video as always and professional edited too with fitting background music as you always do too good finds you have got from the charity shop of all places buddy great titles too hope your having a good evening so far OG and having a beer as well and keep up the great content of videos too your awesome as always have a good one 👍
Cheers Frosty 😎 I do put a lot of effort into the video editing etc so always nice when someone recognises that 😊
Had a good few beers last night and got some interesting stuff coming up in relation to beers etc 😉🍺
Great video as usual, found myself game hunting in Scarborough - would highly recommend the Game Pad shop in particular. Absolutely amazing place if you don't mind stuff allover the place...😂..very friendly owner that has just enough room in the shop to fit his chair...plus good choice also at CEX there
Hi matey, Scarborough sounds like a good spot matey… Might get there one day as do enjoy a good rummage buddy 😎🍺
Thanks for the heads, much appreciated my friend 😎🍺
Nice, I like some lps from the 70s to early 00s as well as some heavy rock, though the ones I like usually command a premium. Bust a move is a classic game and worth picking up. I have owned balance boards but they have usually gone to new homes or cex ended up with them.
Yes matey the vinyl finds at a good price are a rarity these days ! That said will always take a look as you never can tell 😉
Busy a move is a classic game so will be interesting to see if they have put a different spin on this PS2 version 😎😉
Yes, Theme Hospital was indeed on PS1, played it alot as a kid.
Cheers matey one I will be getting 😎
L.a noire is up there in my all time favourites
Would be great to see a follow up 😀
@@OGDuffy unfortunately will never happen , rockstar produced the game they didn't create it, the company that did died and the rights to it with them!
@@guybran6605 that’s a shame matey 🙁
@@OGDuffy isn't it just
I think someone has a Leonardo di caprio man crush! 💀 lol
He does make some decent films for sure…. Wolf of Wall Street was brilliant and Margot Robbie 😍
Singstar Dance!
Mrs OG loves the sing star games ….. Me not so
Much 🤣
I remember completing la noire multi disc game wasn’t it was so good . Great game so realistic . I was rubbish at guessing the face expressions though lol. Was a cool story and the riddles were well hard at the end of the game
It’s such an under rated game matey, a remake set in LA during the 70s or 80s would be awesome with a great soundtrack 😎
My local charity shops are so dry, they don't even have fifa's or wii fit! 🙈
Mate such a gamble visiting charity shops as they so hit and miss! Keep at it though matey your time will come 😉🍺
I need your hrlp buddy it needs me to watch the retro treasure hunt video and i csnt find it buddy, ivr been watching them all day and its doing my head inl
Hi matey I think this is the video your after 😉 Where I find an amazing game …..

Got bugger all by way of games this week so far (early days) I did however trade in some odds and ends to cex and netted a nice 31 quid voucher for a selection of games that cost me less than 10 quid. I might have to think about playing that game more often. Great score today though and gaming related. I picked up a hotwheels super mario kart deluxe racing set. That would have retailed for 80 new when first released and I nabbed it in my big Sally army for a 10er. Thats another one to my son for is fast approaching birthday. They did have quite a few games in as well. Annoyingly all shovelware or fifas across various platforms lol. My local British heart recently had micheal jacksons thriller on vinyl. They knew it was a good one as they made it a window display item lol. Only other piece of vinyl I saw remotely interesting was utah saints in pilgrims a month back. I occasionally have a look through even if I don't own a record player these days
Hi matey, do like reading about your pickups and finds matey😎. You have got some cracking bits for your sons bday buddy he will be well chuffed !!!!
As for vinyls I always take a look but as you say anything decent is priced accordingly these days.
Won’t stop me looking though matey 😉🍺
Ironically enough I pulled the trigger that very night on a switch game for the missus upcoming as well (too many bdays around the month of may) it was a radical reggie reccomendarion (the touryest) the missus likes the more chilled exploration or puzzle games and this one looks right up her Street. She's getting quite the switch collection now. Half of them purchased by me lol
@@steammachine3061 nice one matey 😎🍺
L.a noire is a great game, Would love a sequel one day.
Theam hospital is on ps1.
Agreed matey… maybe bring it ahead a few years? Set in LA in the 70s or 80s would be cool 😎
Theme Hospital PS1 …… gonna pick that up 😎
Still play buzz still really good
Same here buddy such a great game franchise 😎🍺
Yes mate was ps1 too
Gonna keep an eye out for that one. Will be a decent pick up 😉
jason donavan is the voice of buzz
Really!?? Never knew this matey… Every day is a school day 😉 Thanks for sharing 😎🍺
Did you pick up the sims 3 expansions? Same shop as theme hospital some of them worth good credit am sure the university one is like 7 pound credit
I didn’t matey to be fair I didn’t realise some of their values as I generally avoid PC Rom games.
Will keep an eye out on future though matey, thanks for the info 😎🍺
Noticed some PS3 games creeping up in price the last few weeks
I’m not surprised matey some great bargains to be had !
What was the beer of choice 😢
Hi Brad got some exciting news in relation to the Beers 😉 Will share soon 😃🍺
Not Keen on LA nore I collect FIFA games not worth a lot but still ok I've got an Xbox 360
Nice one matey not a huge fan of FIFA myself played a few but they just devalue so quickly.
Crap vinyl is good for sampling not for pleasure..
Plenty of crap vinyl in that shop matey 😎😎
How's life treating you matey? All good I hope.
I need that wii fit game but £200 for the korean version is a bit much im currently saving up for it. Plus I need it on jap, austrailian and promo us version and probablybsome more too good vid m8 nearly forgot ytat buster moves game picture is supposed to be a baby buster blood vessel out of madness but a baby blowing a bubble that was a classic album picture.
That album cover rings a bell... Bad Manners. Many years ago Buster Bloodvessel opened a hotel in Margate, it was called Fatty Towers and had re-enforced beds and the special on the menu was desperate Dan Cow pie ! It didnt last long as a business.
@@OGDuffy they seem to be getting popular again now all to the ska etc maybe it will make a come back haha
