I want a 12 disc JDM autochanger for mine but having a CV that works and a diff that isn't puking comes first

Holy shit that looks ragingly of its time but must have been incredible in '93. Christ, people were still buying Amiga, STand Spectrum games and the mind-boggling* graphics of the PSX were but a year away.

owning a 3DO in 2025 is as much of a humblebrag now as it was in 1993, it was almost as mythical between friends as the Neo Geo that your mate's girlfriend's milkman's cat defo had but they were never in the 11 times you went round

I've only played the Mega CD version - does the 3DO version differ from it?

That era of mid-cycle 16-bit games and FMV was like the wild west in terms of quality. I just had an Amiga 500 and felt lucky that it worked.

LOTR is tedious bollocks that could be shortened considerably with no loss to the plot or story.

Sorry, they bored me SHITLESS to read and I hated the film adaptations, which I was dragged to, even more.

'Never toss a dwarf', lol.

I once spotted some homophobic, christofascist books at a used book sale. I bought them to take them out of circulation AND to use the pages to form a papier-mâché Mardi Gras project. I loved knowing how much the authors would hate their book parading down a public street as a rainbow glitter penis.

The somewhat controversial demise of West Germany's Borgward group in 1961 put paid to the chances of its recently-launched new P100 flagship, but the six-cylinder model had an unexpected second life when the tooling was reused in Mexico, starting in 1967. The luxury 230GL is shown here. #weirdcarbs
