Whatever it is you're supposed to give up for the saying! Very Happy

Just in case you're serious, it means to cheer / applaud et cetera.

Yeah, I was being serious there. Never heard of "give it up" used in that way or context.

Must be a brit thing again!

I'm not sure. Is it only us that say 'give it up for [something]', Quietus?

I was surprised to find some very cool WipEout t-shirts on eBay.

I had a quick search, but couldn't really find anything overly helpful as to its origin.  I did fine one page on wikipedia that mentioned it, and it listed it as American English, so I presume that it's at least the Americans and the English.

I should sell my samus statues.  They are going for sometimes triple what I paid for them now.

Are they the First4Figures ones? I coveted tha Varia and Phazon statues but they were far too expensive for what they are.

Yes, I have the varia, gravity, and phazon statues.  They even have the same sequence numbers on them because I ordered them all way early.  The phazon one is cool because it lights up.  The varia one is getting old, and goes for $399 on ebay sometimes, even though I think I paid $125. I think they made fewer gravity statues, so it should end up going for even more than that someday.  Phazon is still around $200 because it isn't very old yet and some merchants still have it.  If I ever part with them, it would have to be the whole set at once because of the sequence numbers.  I'd let it go right now for about $1000, but I seriously doubt I would ever find anyone who wanted to pay that.

If I could afford it I'd would totally pay that for them. If my vague estimations on exchange rates is anything near sound, that's about what I'd expect to pay for all three anyway.

Can someone please explain to me why this auction refers to metroid and tektites?  (tektites are the spider-like creatures in the LoZ series).

I'm just really curious.

Judging by the other items for sale by this user, I'd guess that it's a misspelling of 'meteoroid'.

You guys are so smart.  It's kinda funny how he/she/it totally unknowingly made two nintendo references.

It looks like they've adapted a He-Man figure or something.  A little too bulky for Link, if you ask me.  Oh, and fake tan ahoy! aiwebs_004

Yeah he looks a little beefy/tough for Link.  Link is a badass for sure, but he still retains a child-like cuteness.

MGS4 universal Bluetooth headset

MGS: The Twin Snakes (PAL)

Don't believe the reviews of the headset. It works fine. It's a bit of a funny shape and gets some getting used to, but it's perfectly useable.

A slip of the finger and you could end up agreeing to pay up to £200 for something you only want to pay £20 for.

I won it at that price, but I hardly count it as a 'victory'.

This auction is over, so the full page is no longer viewable - but there is a thumbnail and it shows the winning bid at $102.50.  It's a fucking flimsy piece of plastic that I'm assuming you hung up somewhere in a store as a promotional decoration back when Super Metroid was actually in-store.  $102.50 for THAT !!!  Metroid collectors are hardcore.

PS - I betcha it was whats-his-face (if you're reading this, I apologize for not recalling your screen name atm) over at MDb who ended up buying it. I think he's the most hardcore 'troid collector I've ever seen. Whoever it is, it must be nice to have enough money to justify buying this.

Check out this bit of coolness:

Too bad it's only 4.5 inches tall, though.

Thanks to VGMStudios from MDb for pointing this one out.
