I'm also in love with the slogan. Is there a t-shirt?

December was mostly a month to continue buying back games I sold when I needed money during my "poor" period, so I did a lot of inventory building.

Sadly, it was also the month the legacy of a classic game was raped and pillaged, and then raped again underneath the soft glow of Christmas moonlight.

THIS month, I have already ordered:

Final_Fantasy_3_III_Trading_Figures.jpg

FFTTrading.jpg


+ Phantom Hourglass trading mini, all of which should arrive sometime this or next week.

And I have pre-ordered:

+ I already imported:

December purchases I didn't get around to posting in last month's thread:


Man that EU Puzzle League boxart would be pretty nice if not for that damn inexplicable black bar "ENJOY STYLUS SLIDING PUZZLE FUN!" ugh

Not really January. It's more like X-Mas and after X-Mas hual. Don't mind the LV bag. It was a present for my girlfriend

If some of you DIDN'T buy games this month, you could have gone on vacations.

I bought games and went on vacation. Its called working a good job and being part of the steel workers union.

No, Amir0x does ecstacy.

Amir0x said:
So anyway, flash forward to a few months ago. For some reason, I don't know, I started having strong urges to revisit that part of my life... and one day, like clockwork, my friend comes along and offers me some coke. Yeah, I know... helluva drug. Strongly overrated. Dangerous. But I didn't resist, I snorted a bunch of lines and I was suddenly back in that world. Smoking weed, doing coke, drinking every night. A quick spiral, but I managed to stay away from Ecstasy even though it was around.

Present Day. I had a party last night at my house, and it went great - I drank myself under the table, and everyone had a good time. It was fun. This morning I'm cleaning up, and I find this stashed under the table:
Sure doesn't sound like he stopped being a coke fiend. Am I the only one who is wondering if his winsome return to coke bingeing didn't also coincide with his newfound respect and appreciation for Super Mario Galaxy?
 
Here's the latest batch of stuff that I've gotten:

Love the cover for MGS2: SOL Vol. 2. I like how the greys go quite well with the reds of Vol. 1

FREE LINES OF COKE FOR EVERYONE!@#

Believe that.

Ecstasy is way better than coke, though. Too bad I have a bad history with it!

Here's what I got in December. I'm still waiting for a buch of stuff including Mass Effect and Eye of Judgment, so this is an incomplete account of my spending habits.

Last batch from December. I have been really disappointed with PC games lately so I'm switching to handheld awesomeness.

One of these games does not belong in the company of such awesomeness.

Dark Kingdom ain't that bad :p Co-op increases its awesome factor as well since I have a little brother. :p

Plus it was terribly cheap :lol
 
My first January purchase will be Radiohead once I get a chance to get to BB. Here's some of my Christmas haul though.

Games/DVDs from my wife's family.

(Non-gaming related)
Rick Nash RBK jersey from my wife. My parents made me a floor lamp out of hockey sticks and puck-shaped couch pillows. Now I just need to get that basement finished.

My December pick-ups. Not much this time, as I need to cut back on what I buy.

NOTE: I bought Assassin's Creed for $40 at Best Buy.
