Got Blu-Ray Macross F, represent!!!

Massive winnage there! Sheryl and Ranka in HD...How much did that Utawarerumono Blu-Ray set you back? Only reason I never got it was the massive price tag (says the guy who probably paid the same or higher for his PS3 MGS4 & Otomedious bundle purchases this year).

And how you talked about the towel reminds me of LeLouch talking about how he'll use his fake brother. How fitting. ^_^

Dunno why, but that just made my day.

Nice shot indeed though :) Great details! And the bee is awesome <3

Probably because there is a massive weight of truth behind it. Although OT, I have seen more honeybees this year than the previous few years, so that's a good sign.

Kai Ozu’s bringing the Gundam 00 BDs, ArchAngel’s bringing the Code Geass BDs—it’s time to toss in some Macross F to complete the 2008 Robot Series Bandai Visual Blu-ray Triumvirate™
Code Geass stuff (with token PS2 game to make this a game-related post):

Is the Code Geass game a port?

That was back when I was ordering everything from CDJapan (Neowing), so I paid MSRP for it (50,000 yen). It’s 39,500 at HMV, 38,000 at Amazon.

Yeah the other side of the package has Lelouch with that line written next to him.
A lot of times I don't care very much about the bonus trinkets that come with discs but I gotta give props to whoever came up with the idea to include a friggin' rag. :lol

Simultaneous PS2/PSP release.

There’s a bonus route that’s different between the two versions but mostly they’re the same game.

I just pictured a gullible over exited little girl standing at a flower cheering for a pollen coverd bee "GO BEE GO! SPREAD THAT POLLEN!" \o/

What game is this? Any good?

Kenka Banchou 2: Full Throttle. And yes, it's good.

It's basically a free roaming Japanese high school street gang game. I loved the first game, but was waiting to get the 2nd one until I could get it for less than $30. The third one just came out on the PSP last week, and my copy should be here soon.

Holy...I knew it had to come down a little but that's still a bit much. One day, it will be mine, if there's no possible Blu-Ray release licensed in the future.

And massive :lol s at that rag package. That's brilliant.

The whole year? I'll post some stuff up later, but for now here's a recent pick up, arrived yesterday.

34xndau.jpg


A modded Japanese Dreamcast. Can play games from any region without the need of boot discs, hooray! I also swapped out the power board for a British one so I don't need to use a step down converter. All it needs now is a VGA input built in and it'd be perfect. :D

It came with these games, two light guns, a controller and VMU (un-pictured). I have most of these games already but it was worth it for Gigawing 2, Radilgy and Trizeal alone.

Here's some other Dreamcast games I've bought in the last couple months:

This last game is an indie release that came out last month. Yes, a Dreamcast game in 2008. It's is madly addictive.

Non-Dreamcast stuff later.

I got Sky Odyssey because of positive impressions of it around these parts (I didn't know Ko Otani composed the soundtrack). PSP component cables are courtesy of fellow gaffer crispyben (thanks!).

Found this brilliant Japanese Sonic soft toy at a car boot sale:

Also got a Amiga CD32 this year, and started to collect some games for it. Mainly for nostalgia purposes as i had an Amiga 500 as a kid.

Some good ol' Saturn games:

9k41o7.jpg


Just a few more bits to add later and that should be the whole years worth (a whole bunch of Mega Drive and master system games, mainly).

Such an awesome camera. I completely love mine, it does just enough on it's own to let me take great pics as a n00b, but gives me the ability to keep learning new techniques and manage lots of things manually if I want.

I took this pic the first day I used the Nikon D40

That is an awesome picture! Great job.

Banjo was got at $25 with the Amazon deal, and I lost my copies of the Song of Ice and Fire series a while ago so I'm just doing some repurchasing.

Persona 4 is self-explanatory. Kinda disappointed I didn't get my copy of Dark Knight or my ace fucking headphones I purchased today, but there's always tomorrow :D
