So a local collector to me just picked up a journey with everything working and seems to ne in bliss. Was it that good of a game?
Personally I'm not a fan of the gameplay, but it's such a novelty piece that it's worth owning if the price is right and you have the space. On Tue, Sep 15, 2009 at 12:25 AM, Chris Hardy <christofer.hardy@gmail.com>wrote:

Is the tape (Separate Ways?) in good shape? That's a critical piece of the game. Chris Hardy wrote:

I remember when my local arcade got this game... they wheeled it in hooked it up put some credits on it and told me to "test it out". Free games for a 9 YO was a BIG deal. I'm guessing its probably a pretty rare game too. <http://mm1.lettermark.net/traskbritt/card/ZHBG_8.map> Bert Ankrom System Administrator 801-532-1922 beankrom@traskbritt.com <http://mm1.lettermark.net/traskbritt/card/ZHBG_8.map> CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This message, together with any attachments, may be legally privileged and is confidential information intended only for the use of the individual or entity to which it is addressed.

Gameplay - average, maybe a bit below. Cab - Awesome, but that's subjective. Tie in to pop culture - If you like Journey, it's off the charts. As for the cassette tape, making a replacement is easy if you aren't a stickler for exact accuracy, or even if you are. Here is a link to a pic of the orig label. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/41/78601569_d67c83a27b.jpg And here is the music from the cassette. The MAME guys matched the CD version up to the cassette edits, and it's in .wav format. http://www.mameworld.info/mrdo/journey.html If I found a good shape, complete NW journey for < $300 I'd take it and you couldn't slap the smile off my face. 3 - 400 I'd haggle but still probably end up buying it. > $400 I'd pass unless it was just minty. It's really a showpiece game. -- Sean McLachlan Chris Hardy wrote:

Well, he dropped 1000 stones for it. Really liked it I guess :) On Mon, Sep 21, 2009 at 12:34 PM, Sean McLachlan <sean@lithoflexo.com> wrote:
