(9:35pm) Facing the music - Literally and Figuratively Hey everyone! Two more music CDs have been added to the Game Rave Music archive, which you'll find below. We have also added in a listing for a Twisted Metal 4 promo soundtrack, though we do not have that in our possession yet.
Resident Evil 2 Sony's press conference has passed, and I found it warm and fuzzy to watch the PSOne be shown in its heyday with a small homage to the release schedule. Also, I have to give a nod to Jack Tretton. Granted, a while back I tore into him for a variety of reasons, but in the press conference he seemed a LOT more sincere, if not insanely nervous. No one could ever match Nintendo's Reggie when it comes to sheer amazing speech giving, but I was almost sorry for Jack. He kept going to his water bottle every break / chance he had. His voice never seemed calm, as if he were pleading with the audience. Normally one would say that's a sheer sign of trouble. I disagree; I think after the disaster that was Ken, Kaz, and Phil Harrison's egos two years ago, Sony has realized its time to get back to the elbow grease and start playing catch-up; if not indirectly apologizing to fans. All that aside, I do have something else I need to get off of my chest. I can understand setting the pace for PSX web-sites out there; I acknowledge and appreciate those of you who have written in asking if there was any way to contribute to the site. While I would normally welcome all the help I could get, this is one project that needs to stay independent. Please, PLEASE keep emailing me with any mistakes / variants / information / leads I may have missing - I always, always welcome that with open arms. It's just that for pure, physical
content, like scans, screenshots, and the like, it drives me absolutely
bonkers to see another web-site not only follow in my footsteps, but
Also, and this is purely opinion, but there is something clinically wrong with you if you must refer to yourself as a separate person, in the third person, under an alias, just to try and get more bids on your eBay auctions. You'd have to be brain dead not to see through the masquerade. Just be yourself. You'll be happier. See you next update! Updated July 7th, 2008

(5:20pm) On the other side, I Just tracked down a 60gig PS3 and have been putting it through the paces. FF7 demo looked nice. Updated June 5th, 2008
(4:20pm) This being one of them:
Along with collecting the games, I have been archiving PSX game ads. Right now over 250 games have been archived, which also includes variants of the same ad. The archive process has me gently removing the page from a magazine, scanning it in at high resolution, saving the raw ad, and then properly trimming the page and storing it in a binder page with cardboard backing, to keep it flat. It's a boring, redundant process, but in the end it's all worthwhile because you can learn so much from ads - what people were marketing their games with, how many times the word "extreme" was abused, and just appreciate the style in which an ad was done. I am hoping to one day have a near / full complete archive off every ad, so that Graphic Designers like myself who have a foot in the industry will have a robust reference catalog. To this day the Driver 2 ads fill me with joy at their simple approach. All that said, this update brings four more of the ads to the web-site, along with 2 new entries from the Batman saga. I'm hoping to skip reviews for now and just get to posting game pages to try and get more content flowing in, but lately its been tough to find time to even do that. Here's the list of updates: Released Games Magazine Ads Here's to the next update not
