Wow, I didn't realize Halo Legends was out already. Looks like I gotta bump that up in my Netflix queue.
I bought these two lenses in the past week:
Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM. $1302.
+ Hoya SUPER HMC Haze UV(0) - Filter - UV - 77 mm. $57.
Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro. $519.
I've been waiting a long time to replace my 18-55mm kit lens that came with my XTi and man, what an upgrade. The 24-70 will definitely be my walk-around lens from hereon out. I actually used it quite a bit this weekend and thought it was a bit bulky/heavy at first. After a day of carrying around, I find it just to be perfect. As for the 100mm, I'm using that mostly for taking pictures of my aquarium.
Sample picture of the 24-70mm in action. My cousin in the midst of tackling me:
Here are two sample pictures with the 100mm.
Just for reference. The first picture up there consists a colony of zoanthids. Each of those polyps are the size of a pencil eraser. I think I can get closer...
And more pick-ups:
Mother Earth. Blu-Ray. $31.
Baraka. Blu-Ray. Free.
Galapagos. Blu-Ray. Free.
A Game of Thrones. George R.R. Martin. Free.
I was running out of nature docs to watch, so I purchased the Mother Earth 5-disc Blu-Ray set. My special lady friend knew I ran out of nature docs to watch, so she bought me Baraka and Galapagos for Valentine's. She also bought me A Game of Thrones. Gives me something to read at work.

Some blu-rays, and I'm a little late on MW2.
Oh, and this just arrived too. Got it from Newegg for $18. Don't know why it has French translations on the front and back covers. Canadian version maybe?

How are you guys getting Heavy Rain early? Some local chain selling them early?
Risible said:Damn, Tegan and Sara really know how to hook up with fantastic graphic artists. All of the posters and merch you've shown has been awesome. I checked them out and love them, btw, so you created at least one fan in this thread.
Haha, awesome. Yeah I really like the designs/style of some of their posters. I have one more coming in the mail but I think that'll be it (for now) as I can't find anymore similarly styled ones.

I'm going to get some shirts in a couple weeks as well.
On Facebook:
Mass Effect 2: "Holy buckets! The hard-to-find N7 Mass Effect 2 hoodie is back in stock on the BioWare store. We sold 600 in 30 minutes earlier this week. We've upped the order, but they will sell out again. Act fast before they're gone."

I've been trying to save up money for my move back to the US in April, but I had a shitty week last week and bought a little bit of cheap stuff to cheer myself up. I only spent about $50 total on all this:

Pokemon Ranger 2 DS Guidebook
Pokemon SoulSilver/HeartGold DS All-Region Pokemon Bestiary
Klonoa Door to Phantomile PS1 Guidebook

Sonic Adventure DX GC Guidebook
Pokemon Ranger Movie Adaptation Manga
Pokemon DP Volume 4
Ratchet & Clank Volume 1
Violinist of Hamelin Volumes 17 & 18
零:月蝕の仮面 (Fatal Frame IV) for JP Wii - found it used for about $35 and I tried playing with the translation patch - it's great!

I've been pretty lazy this month and haven't posted some of the early stuff I got. Just picked Halo Legends and stuff.
These two items I won during the IGN for Haiti eBay auction. Resistance: FoM jacket (which is really comfortable) and Hillary Goldstein's Money Hat, which he used to review GTA IV.

The new toy is the tall purple Junko Mizuno nurse in the very back, and the pin-up anime girl next to (kinda) Akira.
This is a beer can my father recently gifted me.
These are Diesel's my gf gave me. She's got pretty good taste. The Blondie record my roommate gave to me, as well. Did anyone know Jason Schwartzman was in Blondie?
edit: WHY don't these images show up?? It's from the same place as my avatar

I'm so annoyed Halo Legends comes in a God-damned Steelbook. I hate steelbooks, simply because I like all my Blu-rays to be in standard cases. Guess I'll have to hope there are 2 editions here in the UK.

Dog poo incoming!
My wife and I have a Miniature Schnauzer and she still messes up from time to time and poos in the house.

Yep, but I'm prepared. The breeder had started the puppies on the paper early so they're somewhat prepared or at least understand that it's OK to go on the paper, which is nice.
It's still too cold here to take her outside but Max (my 2 year old JRT) learned very quickly, and I've heard that having a second dog is easier because they'll pick up and learn habits of the other dog(s).
I'm just glad I decided to go to bed early last night because she was up very early this morning (8am, which is early for me :lol ).
Good times though.

Yeah, both games have their own trophies and platinums.XCell9200 said:

Yes each game has its own full set of trophies (2 platinums 2 full sets). It's wonderful. I'm about 2/3rds of the way through GoWII right now, and it's awesome. It doesn't look as good as modern PS3 games, but it looks better than a lot of early PS3 games. It's very impressive for quick port of a PS2 game. The AA makes it look so nice. What a fun group of games. It is WELL worth the $30. That's one hell of a bargain for two amazing games each with full trophies.
