I hope so.

In theory it's the same disc as the American release. But I could not find a store that would send the US version to EU.

I will post again tonight to say whether my PAL PS3 reads it.

thanks. i'm pretty much in the same situation as you are, but i wasn't as bold.

Merry Christmas!

Picked up Limbo on XBLA - Definitely a lot of fun, but not sure if it's worth 1,200 points...

If you waited a few days (31 December Limbo is on sale for 600 /maybe 400 ms points) then you got a discount for it

Not criticizing, but why did you go with the D3000 vs the D3100?

Oh no worries, I decided on this model as I don't plan to use video function (I've got a HD camcorder for that) and the price point. My friend's little brother works at a big box store and this was WELL discounted, so I would have felt stupid not to buy it. It's our first SLR so we have to learn the ropes. This model works for us. The next body we buy once we wrap our heads around it will be something more fierce :D

Gray card set with photographers rights printed on the back, the Mighty Boosh complete DVD box set and Jurassic Park. I'm thinking of buying a Blu-ray player soon. I need one with MKV, Xvid/DivX and H.264 support and it needs to do a decent job of upscaling old DVDs. Any tips?

Also bought F.E.A.R. (with the expansion) on the Steam sale.

Just a quick update: the disc is indeed region free.

The language menu at the beginning offers Japanese, English and French.

Here's a crappy phone capture to prove it.

Yes, we have the same laptop. It is the best thing for PC gaming on the go. The thing is a beast hardware-wise and is built like the stealth bomber. I swear it has the best heat dissipation then any other laptop out there. The underside is cool to put on your lap and the afterburners on the back blow out like a hair dryer.

Thumbs up or thumbs down on Fast Striker?

Last Hope I liked...Dux not so much. NCS is shipping mine out this week apparently.
 
I haven't played it yet but Dux was from Hucast and Last Hope like Fast Striker from the Hellwig Brothers at NG: DEV TEAM who are no longer working with Hucast I believe .

Bought this little acrylic holder to organize the top of my BD shelf. Was $4.99 at BB. $14.99 regular price is a joke, but for under $5 it's nice enough. Says it only holds 20 BD's but will hold 25 normal size cases. Maybe 26. Christmas BD's and Disney BD Club enrollment selections are in there.

Saitek Cyborg V.7. First new keyboard in probably 6-7 years. Replaces my trusty wireless Logitech. Sad to see that go but this thing types like a dream and the backlighting is awesome at night.

Logitech MX518. Replaces a Logitech LX3 which started to crap out on me. Only bad Logitech product I've ever gotten. Christmas gift, as was the Cyborg. In love with it after 10 minutes :lol .

Amazon Kindle 3 Wi-Fi.
I was a bit skeptical taking the plunge into getting an e-reader but since I got this as a gift for Christmas, I guess I had no choice. This thing is amazing. The clarity of e-ink and how quick books download is impressive.

Kinect Sensor. Xbox 360.
Also received this as a gift and I'm having more fun with Kinect Adventures than I thought I would. The response is a bit slow/laggy but still manageable. I'll have to get some more games for it, though. Definitely Dance Central and maybe Kinect Sports/Kinectimals.

Metropolis. Enhanced Matte 20.7"x32.0". $42.
Had a tough time deciding between this one and Gotham City. Ultimately, I ended up with Metropolis and couldn't be more happier. I'll eventually get it framed but for now, it'll stay like this.

5298453361_44cdaffa0d_b.jpg


Rocky Mountain Coco Fizz - Chocolate Soda. $2.
Someone out there thought it would be clever to put chocolate in my soda. As soon as I opened the bottle, the sweet aroma of chocolate filled the air. It smells nice but how does it taste? Well, it tastes like a Tootsie Roll, except, in liquid form and the consistency is closer to that of root beer. I can't decide if I like this or not as I keep drinking it little by little, unsure of my satisfaction with this soda. Actually, the more I drink it, the more I dislike it.

thanks! you didn't have to, but i appreciate it :D
 
Here is one large purchase dump from about October to current, including any Black Friday purchases I made:

Campingandvarious047.jpg


Also just because I finally pulled it out of storage and want to brag. This is a 100% complete ROB, and was one of the originals that I've had since getting my very first NES for Christmas all those years ago when my mother bought me the ROB bundle along with Castlevania and Ghosts and Goblins.

Driving Emotion was a pre-Christmas arrival, the rest is my gaming-related Christmas loot:

3rd Birthday shipped this morning but not likely to get here by the end of the year so this could well be my last haul of 2010.

I love this stick. I honestly can't tell it's not Sanwa while playing. Shoutouts to Madcatz for the Omron switches!

Stick is that good?

Thinking I'll head to Fry's and see if they still have TvC sticks.

Recent pick-ups. A hindi blu-ray for Kat/Kumar love:

And my brother bought the big Lego Deathstar and saved it for me, knowing I was coming to San Clemente for the holidays. Took three days and about fifteen hours to build, trading on and off. An INCREDIBLE set:
