Saw it for $5 and figured I should give it a shot.

Ugh, I am fucking pissed. I got a copy of vib ribbon, just returned it BTW, but it basically came down to a case of this...
It was so thick that a ps1 couldn't grip it with those silver balls that lock the disc in place, and it was also useless on my PS2. I payed 20 USD for it, and the seller even said it was sealed. When I contacted him, he was all like "we open sealed items for your protection". Fuck that shit.
Has anyone else had this whole BS center sticker thing happen to them?

That's true for me. I've picked up a couple of games in the past two weeks, but for the most part, it's all about the backlog in anticipation of a killer Q4.

Hey, congratulations! I hoped to post photos of a new apartment by the end of the month too, as my lease was coming up...buuuut laziness set in, waited too long to get started, so no new place. Depressing, but maybe next year.
To ease my disappointment, I picked up a few crazy items for my den. I found a neat old gaudy table lamp, and had a few new tawdry posters framed. Fun stuff. No pics yet, though GAF doesn't take kindly to my silly den cheese anyway (it's all good, ridicule is part of the game).
Hopefully I'll have pics of a new basketball goal soon, which is exciting. Having no driveway would be an obstacle, but I have a grandmother in town less than two miles away...so bam, instant driveway action. My last goal was destroyed in a storm so I doubt I'll buy anything better than a cheapo with a sand-filled base.
Last RPG that I truly finished was FF7 and since then never really completed one, at least what I can remember. Really felt like playing some again but somehow I'm always scared that they are to difficult. I bought Persona 4 and no way in hell I will play that soon, really looks to hardcore.
So picked up DQ4 sometime ago and soon thereafter DQ5, FF3 (last week) and got Chrono Trigger this week. Almost finished FF3 (around 26 hours now) and enjoying it a lot, I still want to pick up FF4 but can't seem to find it for cheap. Started playing Chrono yesterday and damn so far it's great and just got in the future and that stuff looks and sounds depressing. Getting used to the battle system tho, the pacing is quite fast or so it feels at least.
Never played any of these
I'm ashamed and I got some catching up to do.SonOfABeep

Yeah I'm not picking up a lot lately. I think this weekend I'll be getting a $50 points card and I've been itching to get Sacred 2 for a while, but I dunno.

I believe it's because timed exclusivity for xbla games is two weeks. and because mvc2 was part of microsoft's "summer of arcade" then it counted as an exclusive.

Actually yes, from a music cd a borrowed from the library (of all places). It fucking annoying, and if you finally get the sticker off the cd is covered in horrible glue...

Yeah they're pricey, especially if you buy from online retailers. I had to go through Yahoo Japan auctions to get them for a reasonable price, but now I own every Nujabes album

Bought these yesterday for $9.99 US each (turned out to be $24.88AU). My original physical retail copy of BG&E's third CD is scratched and buggered. I've also always wanted to play Psychonauts and have been enjoying it so far.
I also bought a second-hand copy of
