Crazy, I randomly found the Bear In Heaven cover art a little while back and I've been using it as my DP for a while. I even considered getting a tattoo of it, and I had no idea it was cover art. I thought it was just some picture someone put together. Now I'm listening to some of the music, and it's so good.
If not for you, I probably would have never known! Thank you!

God that book has some of the best comedic timing for comic ever. I'm still sketchy on Michael Cera as Scott.OMG Aero said:
After seeing all the hype over the movie trailer and XBLA game announcement, I decided to follow GAF's recommendation and get this.
Hopefully it doesn't disappoint and then I can get the rest.

I've heard some people saying it "tries too hard to be cool". So apparently if you're a bitter jerk, you probably won't like it.SalsaShark said:
Getting ready for the Reach beta , it was also $30 so I decided what the hell.

Damn Ikkarus and Tiduz, two top notch phones, HTC Desire and an X10
How are you liking the X10? I have really been thinking about pulling the trigger on one, but want wait and see what happens with the Evo, etc, plus not sure about the X10a compatibility here in the US, and really don't like android 1.6. I love my HD2 and I don't care about WM7 etc, just love good quality hardware. XDA takes care of the rest

Pick up Post! I need your Help!
I bought this Resident Evil 1 PC version because it just didn't make sense. The boxart didn't match, and the publisher (virgin interactive) was nowhere to be seen. I can't find anything that matches it on google, everywhere has a different boxart for the thing. It might have just had a different slipcover, but I can't find anything on it. Does anyone know?
I asked KobunHeat by twitter, having had the idea after the retronauts pax east panel, but maybe someone here knows too!
This shows off the ridiculous back cover copy. "The POLYGON provides horror"
And the bottom part of the box with system requirements, etc.
On to the normal pickups!
Pretty Good for $12 at Goodwill. The box is in rough shape, and no video/power cords. It came with some baseball game inside and one controller. Also the manuals. Worth it for $12. Just gotta track down some video/power cables.
In like-new condition. Going to re-sell this one, I have no nostalgia for the Ultima series, unfortunately.
Free Stuff from the Joystiq Podcast Live at PAX East! (I gave the Wii one to my sis, going to keep the 360 one as a souvenir) Hey, it's better than the Pony Friends or Secret Saturdays the guys around me got.
Some PAX East Swag. I didn't take too much of the free stuff people were giving away, but I got some nice shirts and stuff. Also, one of those Tetris Icecube trays.
Best of all, my gf was picked for the omegathon! Lost in the first round, but still cool. They gave her a unique badge and medal. We didn't jump any lines for panels, thought it wouldn't be fair, we got there an hour early like you needed to..
And finally, the actual pickups/games
Bought so many PS3 games lately.. I usually never get them!
Blockbuster sales/Closing Stores incoming! Beatles Rock band for $12, Sega Rally Revo with Saint's Row 2 360 for $7, B1G1 free. (same with Double Agent 360 and Jak PSP)
The rest are just random cheap finds.

This will be the majority of my pickups for this month. Don't think I have much if anything on my radar now, besides a couple Goozex items I'm waiting on. (Or any random sales that crop up)

Is it an extended version for LOTR ?

It's based on the original plot outline for the proposed 26 episode series that turned into the OVA...
My first game buys in quite a while.
Pokemon was a trade-in for two older games; it was immediately sold sealed on eBay as I figured it'd attract more buyers. Someone bid $AU46 plus postage - guess they didn't know Target have it for $AU48.
Eternal Sonata was an impulse buy as it was very cheap; unfortunately within three minutes of the opening cutscenes I realised I never ever wanted to play it and ripped it out of the Xbox before it could infect my gamerscore with its achievements. It's up on eBay now.
Prism was also very cheap and a good puzzle game. But I really hate those goddamn fat PAL cases.
Good thing Etrian Odyssey was an unequivocal good buy or this would have been the most negative post in the thread.
(Coming soon: SMT Strange Journey. Can't wait!)
Under The Umbrella Tree! I watched that all the time as a kid.isny said:This will be the majority of my pickups for this month. Don't think I have much if anything on my radar now, besides a couple Goozex items I'm waiting on. (Or any random sales that crop up)

Metroid Metal was selling them at PAX. I might look on there website.
I need to know what that RE PC is!
The pc version supposedly is the actual director's cut with the uncut videos.

Great pickup, with the D&D collection!
Reasonable price, having bought it from a shop rather than online?
SonOfABeep said:
My first brush with Resident Evil in the 90's was the PC version. Had that same artwork for its cover. Where did you pick this up? It might be a bootleg copy. I know mine was, and it had no shame in using Capcom logos everywhere.
Went out and brought the Kick-Ass G Novel because I saw the film and loved it
my first Graphic novel as well
Also brought Dave Chappelle's Bloc party dvd, best £4 i've ever spent
Finally finish with some disk swapping nostalgia on my part with C1 GP loved this game 6-7 years ago so i had to re buy it
