My beautiful screen for my projector fell and smashed into pieces. I decided to go with a Panny 50" 1080p plasma this time around.

holy shiz, how much for the BM controller?

Just under $400, will have to get a 2 player version next time. I'm very impressed by the build quality!

Markman, I feel your pain re: Book Off. I spend way too many lunches and cash at the stores here in LA.

RAPID RELOAD PIC

I remember there being CO-OP in this game, but no no :( Still awesome though.

I got that from the Japanese PSN the other month =D

It was one of the first Psone games I ever saw, sold me on the machine instantly :p
 
Finally time to replace the old G4 tower...

24" iMac 2.8GHz Core 2 Extreme , Airport Extreme and AppleTV

Great choice in TV...not so much for sound..

I know the Bravia sound isn't the greatest, but this is in a 10ft by 12ft den. Plus the Bravia receiver was the only one that would fit in my tv stand, so I was limited in my choice. That and my wife won't let have big speakers. With a bit of tweaking it actually sounds quite good though. And yes, the Kuro is simply amazing. The black levels and colors are all very satisfying.

Next year I get to go all out. We're finishing our basement and building a movie theater with projector and 8 ft screen. I'm of course going to get a PS3 going down there as well as a nice 7.1 receiver with high quality speakers etc.

Once again, sorry for the cell phone quality.
Hopefully one of these can net me some money right before the beta starts :p
Also I finally gave in and Pre-ordered GTA IV, held out as long as I could.

I´ll buy one from you if that doesn´t come over europe.

They give that away with the preorder? What comes in it?

My pick ups so far.

Also, I haven't opened up these headphones yet. Does anyone else use them? Should I keep them? My old pair (the mic anyways) seems to have stopped working, but it could be the mic input on the mobo that's the problem too. =(

Hmm, I'll see. It comes with a beta key for MGO and a DVD that recaps the series (I think, haven't opened either).

Yeah I feel ya man, WAF has hampered more than one HT setup. I'm sure that Kuro is pretty fantastic, I have been thinking of purchasing one when MGS4 releases because I don't think my current HDTV is up to snuff.

I just got my Nausicaa Watercolor Art Book today in the mail, and spent the last hour or so thumbing through it. I'm pretty impressed with the build of it, and geeked out to see Miyazaki's crazy criticism of his work ('This piece turned out especially badly').

Also got the first volume of the Nausicaa Manga and Opoona lately. I should take some pictures for GAF once I'm done splurging.

Got this today at my Gamestop. Finally. Not having rumble was really bothering me when playing Playstation 3 games.

Really starting to grow my Blu-ray selection. The $30 price tag still stings sometimes, although I usually buy on Amazon when I can(I Am Legend for $21 after shipping).

Gran Turismo 5 : Prologue and Grand Theft Auto IV of course are coming before the month is over:D

Justin Timberlake: FutureSex/LoveShow - Live from Madison Square Garden (Blu-Ray)

Also bought but not pictured on the Wii's VC:
Gunstar Heroes
Paper Mario
Harvest Moon

And preordered MGS4: Limited Edition.

Two of my all time favorite games have been increasingly difficult to get running properly on my PC, so I got the versions that I know won't stop working. Before I joined GAF I didn't even now they existed.

Finished this a few days ago, and it was a great. It's really short though, so I'm glad I bought a cheap used copy.

Even though it's my least favorite Final Fantasy soundtrack, I thought it was kinda cool. It's a limited edition signed by Nobou Uematsu.

I also got a few Owen Pallett albums.
