Homercles82 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 I don't know if CounterStrike counts as old but overall I have spent many more hours playing that than other games. I can remember cramming homework in right after classes in college so I could spend the next 6 - 10 hours with my clan practicing, goofing or in matches.

Tweedr01 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Yes I live in Falls Church well dang you are closer than i am, i have to come all the way from freakin woodbridge, like a 45 minute drive eStarland.com 1 (877)941-0165 3150 Spring St Fairfax VA 22031 EDIT: it's a small, small street off of 29 (i think 29 or 50...or both, aren't they the same street for a little bit? anyways..), and when you come up to the building you have to walk around the construction, but they are a small shop with EVERYTHING EDIT 2: just checked, they don't currently have one at the store, but you can talk to them or have them shoot you an email when they get one, or i'm sure they can find one EDIT 3: (getting tired of this yet?) just checked ebay, they have them going "Buy it Now" for around $40 w/ controllers, I really like old school gaming if you couldn't tell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
