Lgr: *wakes up on a battlefield. Bodies are all around. Shells are falling. Hes inside a trench burried under his fallen friends. The bodies in front of him let him survive the blast and he was the only on to survive the battle, passing as a body to the enemy*
*he pushes off his best friend*
Lgr: *turns towards camera* let's go thrifting
*music begins playing*
i like to imagine that instead of recording the audio later, your just walking around goodwill talking to yourself. the thought amuses me greatly lol
"Nnnnooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooope!"
Yeah, that would be kinda funny!
lmao
I have never been so excited about a product as I was about the lamp, phone, calculated, clock combo. I will go out of my way to find this to complete my life
Nick S I do regret no picking it up. Seems like all things to all people.
If you have a cellphone you already have that combo lol!
Commodore true, but not nearly as badass, no updates to a lamp
I know! I am re-watching these and I really think that things is cool lol.
LGR I think this was supposed to be a jab at the various functions of modern cell phones. I need it.
Being a russian video game collector and watching these series makes me jealous. The prices for this stuff are ridiculous in Russia, even comparing to ebay. Though, sometimes you can get lucky and find cool stuff for cheap, but it happens veeeery rarely.
You're one of the greatest dudes LGR!
Indeimaus I whole heartedly agree with that!
Just leave the poetry to Carl Sandburg ;-)
There is a point when something is so tacky it passes tacky and moves back to cool again. I'm looking at you phone/calculator/clock/lamp combo.
It's weird how stuff always becomes cool again. I never thought the bike shorts and big ugly white sneakers I wore as a child would be fashionable. But it happened!
ah always love these episodes, now if only the thrift stores around me would ever have some decent things
Tweetsie Railroad was the staple of any trip to my grandparents' house growing up. Super cool to see it randomly in LGR Thrifts all these years later!
Probably entirely late but I actually got the Rollercoaster Tycoon Board Game when I went to America on holiday around 2002/2003. Bought it at Disney World Florida. Ended up throwing away most of my clothes in order to bring it back since it meant there was too much luggage. Worth it. Only played it a few times but it's a load of fun. It's one of those 3D Build it board games
This video has only been on CZcams a day, and yet it has garnered nearly 24,000 views. I recently joined Patreon myself and noticed that LGR only has 612 patrons (including myself). I joined because personally I can't wait for two weeks for an LGR Thrifting video (or any other LGR video). So please show your support for LGR on Patreon and get earlier access: www.patreon.com/LazyGameReviews
I mean 24 hours... 24,000 views... you know you want to!
Now the video is getting close to 300k views
Good episode
Be it PWG or Lazy Game Reviews, the diligent Matt Zion patiently stalks his CZcams prey in an attempt to assert the dominance of himself and his channel. Once the wild Matt Zion sees that a new video has been uploaded, his immediate response is to comment before any major channel can leave their mark, thus marking his territory and posing himself as a threat to all other commenters.
wreckless eating watching lazy reviews? Nice.
WrecklessEating Thanks!
Lazy Game Reviews great video I love your videos
I swear, WrecklessEating has grown so much since I subscribed at main show 10. It warms my heart. ;;__;;
While this series may seem like something casual, I really love it. But I think, in general, LGR everything you do makes me smile.
For some reason i really like this series, i don´t know maybe just hearing your voice is pleasing enough for me.
Oddly I have never seen you encounter a bucket of golf balls. There is ALWAYS a bucket of golf balls in UK thrift shops!
Celtic Saint Always is here too, I just don't show them :) After all, they're insanely common. I don't always show the boxes of old remote controls either, but they're always around!
Road Rash man... wow in box, LORD!
T_T So jealous of the Morrowind guide. It's my absolute favorite game, even got a half-sleeve tattoo finished just this week of it.
Have you seen what this is going for on Ebay or Amazon lately? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Haha, that opening scene xD I also have fond childhood memories of lunchboxes... I get a certain feeling when I see one, any one, even on video. Ahhh. xP Very nice episode - forty bucks for all of that sounds pretty good.
Keep 'em coming, man. I'm seriously considering doing my first patreon sub just to ensure this series never dies.
Back in the day I bought a 2-pack of those Gravis gamepads that came with NHL '95 and a Y splitter cable that let you use both joysticks in a single serial port, but only 2 buttons would work per joystick. A great game and fantastic gamepads although I'm pretty sure I broke the little screw-in joystick dealie on both of them.
My first computer was Packard Bell and it came with a monitor with those speakers. I still have the computer but, sadly, not the monitor. Ahhh, nostalgia.
4:32 he said he would buy that game, but there was no disk lol
I've had that Roller Coaster Tycoon board game since it came out! It was probably one of my favorite games when I was younger and to adulthood
Total nostalgia trip with those speakers. My first color computer.
Our first family computer was a Packard Bell and I'll always remember those speakers that attached to the monitor!
Funny story, my grandparents used to live in the King's Mountain area of NC and we would take a week long vacation to visit them every summer. One year when I was really young, probably like 1st or 2nd grade age, we went to Tweetsie Railroad and I vaguely remember riding the train. They did a little show where some native americans or something took over the train and they were shooting these very loud fake guns and it terrified me! I don't think we ever went back, which is kind of a shame because i'm sure it was actually really cool. I love watching your videos and hearing about some of these places that are really nostalgic for me from a very specific time in my life.
Why does watching you shop make me so happy? Keep them coming.
My best friend and I cut our copy of the Morrowind guide in half because we were on different parts of the game and swapped back in forth as needed. Ah those were the days. What a piece of nostalgia
That console stereo was freaking gorgeous! My grandparents had one, it's in my sister's house now, and I'm quite jealous.
Just discovered these videos today. Ended up watching the whole series.
I'm so jealous about that Morrowind guide! I wouldn't even use it, but I love giant thick books like that when they're about some of my favourite games.
OMG, YOU FOUND A MORROWIND GOTY BOOK OMG!!! I've been trying so hard to find one of those in a resale shop. You are my Hero.
That huge stereo console certainly brings back memories. Back in the mid-late 1970s (when I was a teenager) my mom owned one that stayed in the front room. She didn't really own any records, but she swore by 8-Track tapes. Whenever I cleaned the front room I'd be cranking up Destroyer, an album by KISS (they were pretty popular back then).
Yeah, on 8-Track. Where you'd have three songs and a clunk, and if that third song was long, you'd be groovin' to it and suddenly CLUNK, throwing you totally out of the song. Now try listening to In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, with the drum solo, on 8-Track.
Probably get TWO clunks during that song.
I had an aneurysm when you passed up the Hori Stick
And yes, I'm fine now, thanks for asking c:
Man i wish i lived in an area where thrifting was as available or at least i didn't have travel long distance, just seeing some of the stuff you get at the end of some of these episodes just makes me want to go shopping for games and hardware.
I love collecting too.
I didn't know that joining one of the Houses in Morrowind allowed you to have a huge house built for you by laborers, and you could stop by and see the progress over time! That guide clued me in (not sure why I needed it back then) but it's actually very useful. I was able to complete every side quest and do everything possible using it as a reference. So worth it.
Nice find with the Strategy guide. Morrowind is one of my all time favorites
I had one of those Packard Bell monitors with the speakers as my first PC! My nostalgia filled brain seems to remember te speakers didn't sound too bad
Not a bad haul at all. Absolutely love this series and got me into thrifting myself. Got myself an amp and Spinter Cell 2 on the same day.
There was some comedy gold in this episode, thanks for the laughs!
Seeing that Gravis gamepad for pc takes me back, was so happy to have it to play ea sports hockey back in the day!
Ninja Blade is a very cool and fun game. Pure hidden gem, and great find!
I CAN NOT WAIT for that Goodwill to be finished. So excited.
I love your thrift videos, they're fun to watch. Interesting lamp/clock/phone thing there...never saw that before. I love going to thrift stores myself, possibly more than Half Price Books now that they've raised prices on a lot of games (Though I still visit them of course).
I used to play Nights into Dreams with my father all the time on our Sega when I was a kid! I think it was one of my first video games... For the longest time I could not remember what it was called, and as soon as I saw the sequel's box in your video, a lightbulb went of. Thank you! I'll have to find it again and sit down with my father to play it, just like old times...
I do remember though, that it scared me pretty badly at times, haha. Hopefully I'm a little bit braver now!
I don't know why I find this series so entertaining, but I do. They're great!
I just love how (oddly?) satisfying it is to watch these.
I always wondered how you recorded when going into these places without being thought a creeper. But the reflection in the window told it all. Video Camera Glasses! Epic!
Hey, it's the Road Rash II re-release! If it's the same one I have, the cart won't be the usual ginormous EA cart-- but a more traditionally-sized SEGA cart, which I tend to prefer. Road Rash II is awesome. The other Genesis games were nice finds, too-- especially Rampart, which I've not seen in the wild in quite some time.
Medal of Honor: Frontline is arguably the best game in that series. IIRC, that was the last before the Medal of Honor staff splintered and some formed Infinity Ward. I heard they went on to make some game called "Call of Duty" or something like that.
Holy moly your so lucky! That morrowind goty guide had me drooling.
Why do I love this series so much... It's like discount cocaine.
Perfect series to relax and watch before bed, it’s the best
Desert Strike!!!!! That was the first game I really got into on the Sega Genesis my brother handed down to me when he got a PS1. I've been searching for the name for like 15 years. Desert Strike was my first game.
Another great video from one of my favorite CZcamsrs! Keep up the good work, man!
I am super jealous that you found one of those Morrowind guides, I grew up playing Morrowind and always drooled over the guides but was too young to afford them.
Great job on another thrifts episode. Would love to see you do more of them.
Tweetsie was so rad, I used to go all the time when I was little and loved the "Wild West"
Do you ever get recognized in GameStops? Or I guess anywhere for that matter? Has your online celebrity reacheched that level of insanity yet? Also Dat intro! hahaha I dug it!
Indeed I have. Goodwills, restaurants, arcades, coffee shops, etc... it's weird at first, but it can be fun too!
i really found it cool that someone left to a note on a big boxed PC game in a Goodwill for you Clint....that must have been strrraaannngee!!
holy nostalgia! I live in florida and nobody here knows what Tweetsie railroad is! thats amazing to me.
Hehe best intro so far... Lion King, Road Rash II, & Desert Strike ! All my fav memories on my Mega Drive and wow Clint youve never played Desert Strike !!!
No, I said I didn't own it. I've played all the Strike games quite a bit, but mostly with friends or through emulation.
That makes sense I doubted you would of missed the strike series, nice find with the Morrowind guide by the way, I'm trying to find GOTY edition of it for the xbox for awhile now in my local second hand stores he3re in uk nothing like you mega thrift super massive mall shops though ;]
That Shaq-Fu... I thought many Shaq-Fu copies are destroyed by some guys who are dedicated to eradicate Shaq-Fu from existence. I wonder how Shaq-Fu A Legend Reborn is doing.

Omg i loved tweetsie railroad when i used to live near apex, i still have my lunchbox from there
I totally love your thrift store videos, never stop making these.
love your videos! i could nerd out to them all weekend, actually so far i have...
I love you LGR! You're definitely the last person I'd think who'd go thrifting! #fangirling
Last night I was hoping you'd do a LGR Thrifts some time soon. Next morning it shows up, yes!
Damn, I haven't been to Tweetsie in forever. Love that place.
Hahaha instantly like with the intro ;)
WOW! the condition of those Genesis games! The ones I usually find are covered in funk and gunk!
I really love these thrifting videos.
Weird, that PC Gamepad looks exactly like one of the Philips cd-i controllers :/
That's because it is. Gravis and Philips had a partnership.
the main reason i watch these is to keep updated on how the construction is going.
A few months ago, the gamestops near me started using easy-peel stickers for everything so even when stickers are on the artwork they come right off without damaging it. It's the only good decision gamestop has ever made.
Can't believe you knew what those speakers were from. Awesome!
That Morrowind guide... *drools* In my opinion, Morrowind is the worthiest game to have a strategy guide. So much memories, still my favourite game of all-time. ^^
Yesssssss, my day is complete because there is a new installment of LGR thrifts !
Great opening to the episode, keep up the great work.
While I was on a thrift run last Saturday, I happened to run across an entire World of Warcraft expansion pack complete in box, and for a good price, no less! In addition, I found (and bought) Sid Meyer's Civil War in box, and I can safely say this the first old-style PC box I've ever owned legitimately.
I also came across these bizarre Chinese VHS tapes- mostly Studio Ghibli stuff along with 70's-80's anime, packaged very uniformly with the tapes inside a case, sealed inside another case. I have yet to find out if they're actually *dubbed* in Chinese, or if they're just Japanese with Chinese badly dubbed over. _It wouldn't surprise me if it was the latter._
Nights is an amazing game ,I love it's soundtrack
I have that exact old stereo, OMG is it loud... and still works great today, they just don't make stuff the way they used to.
Lol @ "Noooooooooope" (3:50)! Good episode!
I just bought that rct board game at a garage sale last weekend. I had no idea it existed either until then.
Another great episode! I wish at least one of my finds would show up on this series but I understand you're getting a ton now.
Where are you sending them? Best way to ensure I see and download them is to email them to the address listed on my CZcams channel page!
+Lazy Game Reviews I can't find your email address in the channel description
I watch this series every morning very fascinating though I wish more nerfing channels did this sort of things
OMG, Tweetsie! I used to go there all the time when I was a kid too! I loved it!
I remember going to Tweetsie Railroad as a kid too! :D
I had a Gravis Gamepad once. The D-pad on that thing was a nightmare to me, even the little screw-in stick didn't help much. Heck, I still have a hell of a time finding PC gamepads with good D-pads on them. I'll probably end up getting a Nintendo Classic Controller Pro for the Wii at some point and one of those USB converter dealies if the price on the controllers ever goes down.
Love LGR thrifts. You have a great voice for this kinda thing.
Heh! Paused at 10:40 when I spotted the Valhalla box in one of the viewer thrift pictures, clearly from a British YT'er. It's a fact that whenever you see Spectrum games being sold, there's always a copy of either Scrabble, Make-A-Chip, or Survival.
Holy hell. I actually have the Rollercoaster Tycoon board game somewhere. I only played it a few times, but I remember it being relatively fun. It's sort of a collector's item for RCT nerds like me.
I actually had one of those PB monitors with the slide-on speakers. They sounded pretty decent, too.
Nice find on what appeared to be a complete Atari Jaguar guest photo submitter!
I love watching LGR - Thrifts! I need to go do some more thrifting too.
Nothing like some LGR Thrifts with my morning oatz
Hey LGR now pretty much my favorite subscription. I'd love to see some more Sims 4 content.
Sheesh, You're channel is just fantastic, LGR, keep it up!
That was my first computer. Packard Bell Pentium 4 with that monitor and speaker setup. Neat.
Nothing quite like the feeling of finding something AWESOME in a thrift store. :)
3:35 oh my gaaad dude, you straight up left a Metal Tonka truck...nooooooo!!!
that intro is so funny lol. good job clint!
I'm almost certain that when I was little, our old computer had snap-on speakers like that. I hasn't even thought about those until they showed up here.
