Hm..that book seems interesting; might have to check it out. Since you just got the book maybe it's still early to tell, but what's your impression on it? Are there general analysis of different tactics? Or is it more about anecdotes about different coaches throughout history?

From the quick flick through I've have so far, it appears to be a combination of both. Essentially it charts the history of tactics in football, using specific teams/coaches as case studies to discuss its evolution.

Looks like it is going to be a very interesting read, although, as per usual, I'll probably get a hundred or so pages into it and then struggle to find the time to read any more. I still have - the excellent - 'The Ball Is Round' from last Christmas that I'm only half-way through!

And they made him a Lord of Cinder. Not for virtue, but for might. Such is a lord, I suppose. But here I ask. Do we have a sodding chance?
Damn I, I need help... who's the guy who put Crisis Core and Wii Music in the cat sand?

God, I need to know this right now!

WAY too much stuff this year. All purchased new and only about 50% actually played...

The DS is freakin' awesome. Much love for Ouendan!

I still haven't purchased Boom Blox. I fail. :(

DSC01441.jpg

When my girlfriend saw me stacking up all these games she said "No way. You did NOT buy all those games this year." I did... Oh does anybody know where I can buy spare 360 cases? I have the inserts but I need the green cases to make my PH games look like the rest.

Drivin', shootin', and rockin' out. That's how I roll.

My girlfriend just game me the Galaxy and Bebop soundtracks for Christmas. She's so awesome.

My Christmas presents were AMAZING. I got pretty much everything I want.

Some books.
P1000170.jpg


Donald Vol. 3 (OOP) to complete my donald collection and The Complete Goofy (OOP)
P1000171.jpg


Miles Davis - Kind of Blue and some random ridiculous Japanese PC game on floppy discs.
P1000173.jpg


PJ's and an alligator kuzie (sp?). I'm a UF fan so the kuzie makes sense.
P1000174.jpg


My girlfriend just started knitting and attempted making me a bowser beanie. I think she did a good job and love it.
P1000175.jpg


NASA Blu-ray and Death Race on Blu-ray (screw the haters, the move was fun to watch albeit stupid)

Nice! It took me ages to find a copy of that Goofy set for anything other than ridiculous amounts of money. Probably should get the Donald ones before they vanish too..
 
Xmas Games. (thanks Gaz, for Boom Blox, my lovely wife for everything else)

I had a pretty long wish list this year, and held off on a lot of deals so I could make shopping easier for everyone.

The only game I got was a stocking stuffer from my folks:

Bangai-o DS

My wife didn't get me any games at all! However I can't shake the feeling she was trying to send me a message with my gifts:

Mr. Bento

I guess I will be hitting the gym, and not eating at Chipotle in 2009....

You can get it free if pre-order a game at Best Buy which you are gonna buy for sure upon release. You have to take that plastic-wrapped empty case to the counter and you can keep it.

My Christmas pick ups + Persona 4, which I believe is all of my December pick ups. Also got a 120gb hard drive, but that's already hooked up so screw it.

:\ I was hoping for an easier solution.

Guled said:

I almost never get games for Christmas. Last year I got Fire Emblem: PoR and then before that the last time I was given a game I was in 6th grade.

However I did get that Super Mario Galaxy sountrack this Christmas and that's better than pretty much any game I would have recieved.

What's with that cardboard CD slip case-looking thing with Chrono Trigger that people have been posting, along with their DS case? Was it some sort of preorder bonus, or is it shrinkwrapped with the game, or what? Is it a special soundtrack or something?

Presents from the GF's parents! They have her buy everything for me, so she basically treats it as more presents from her. It rocks. :) I got Gamestop, Amazon, and Barnes&Nobles gift cards from the rest of her family.

Thanks for your answer, it seems interesting, think I'll grab it. And good luck crossing that 100-page hurdle ;P

Could you ask your gf where did she get that Cowboy Bebop CD-Box, please? And one other request, could you take few more shots of it?
