    Yeah. Ones like "Plumbers Don't Wear Ties". It's basically like watching a freaking movie with a few options that pop up here and there and a few "choose your own adventure" scenes. AVGN really hates it...

    Here's a decent one:

    And this: Ebay2.jpg

    It's actually not a bad price if it was a complete item, but two good things:

    1. He's also selling a Skeleton Xbox for around 140 pounds. If he has something like that, he should be able to do the research and say that the controller is for Steel Battalion. NOT Mech Warrior/nor a movie prop.

    2. The first Steel Battalion was a single player game, so again, if someone had the peddles, that thing would work fine for it.

    That's very sad, some people own things that have no idea about them. It's not a Skelton system either, it's 'Smoke Black'.

    I can only imagine how ridiculous they would price my cousin's mother's spare room filled with stuff in mint condition - original consoles, stuff like C64s all in their original packaging in dust-cover type bags or vacuum bags because she doesn't like to get rid of electronics "just in case".

    But anyway. Absolute nutter, that eBay seller is.

    the fact he left the £1 sticker on and selling for £12.99 makes this a EPIC FAIL

    Not really. Things once sold for one price and actually command more. Rather than risking any more damage by pulling it off.

    Wrong Borman, very wrong! It says $0.10 on the first Action Comics Batman issue, so I'd be insane to pay only a penny more than that!

    I should send a few offers for $0.01 just to screw with him for asking an insane price.
