Fuck this game.
 
So I've been talking to my parents about saving up for a PS3 and have been talking up Unreal Tournament over the last two days. I get home from work yesterday to find:

Even the Logitech controller that I had only mentioned in passing!

Part of it is one of my Christmas present, the rest of it I'll be paying for, but the main reason Mom picked it up early was so I could play it on the days I'm off of work.

And then Mom wouldn't give me back the controller when I let her play Motorstorm. :(

I got this opening the box (squeezed my finger inbetween the cardboard and the carpet):

Or does that second picture belong in the OT, dementia? :lol

My final (I think) Dec haul:

Scene-It (gift, looks fun)
UT3
Assassin's Creed
(just ordered for $37 at BB deal)

I'll save my BB gift cards for Haze or one of the other big Jan/Feb releases.

I also got Rome season 1&2.

5 free offer arrived. Superman is a duplicate that I also got via an Amazon BOGO. I think I'll keep the top two and ebay the bottom row.

Found it used on Ebay for cheap,beats paying some extortion price for it brand new.
Has anyone ever seen this thing in stores? So much gas wasted trying to hunt it down,THANK YOU EBAY.;)

S4020027-1.jpg

My old PSP died 4 months back,got lucky and found a brand new old model sitting in a BlockBuster. Don't care about all the new games,CrackDown I bought again,old copy was scratched when my brother ruined it with multiple scratches. Razor -instant purchase,must be the chip within my Cylon head.

Got major lucky with this one - bought it in Toys R Us,last one. One of those sports collectable guys was buying everything up when I got the last one,worth the dirty look he gave me too. SCALPER AM CRY.
 
I watched it last night, seemed fine to me. What's a framing issue, anyway? Can you elaborate on that, because maybe I just didn't notice?

Why would you do such a thing. At least three children die when you buy a game with EBGames boxart.
lol,i know,i hate it too but whatever,saw it for 7 bucks when i was in line,more of an impulse buy. saw the same game for the same 7 bucks but with boxart in another EB,oh well,the game is pretty sick so far,but frustrating at parts.

December: Picked up the DMC Set since I couldn't find a single copy of DMC3, I doubt I'll play the first two. SD card + camera, and I'm finally going to see if GoW2 is as good as they say.

I also picked up this TV earlier in the month!

It's only in a few shots, so most people don't notice.

cjdunn, when did you mail in your form? I sent mine in a couple of weeks ago and I still don't have any of my Blu Rays.

Oh October-ish. When they say 6 to 8 (to 10) weeks, they mean it. :/

It took so long I accidentally went ahead and bought Superman again. :D

GAME has just started selling these classic style Sonic plushes. Apparently there are also Knuckles and Robotnik ones, but no one seems to be stocking them where I live. They were only a tenner each and are selling pretty quick so I grabbed these two quick. Ain't they just the cutest? =D
