Replaced my tower speakers with a set of compact Polk Audio. Quite pleased with the audio quality and most importantly, the size.

Couple of PS2 games I meant to pick up:

Finally decided to go Plasma and purchased a Panasonic PZ85u.

This is what we were told. However the Vet looked at her, and thought she was an Olde English Bulldogge X Pitbull or Staffordshire terrier. Since we rescued her from a puppy mill, he said it was a common they lie about dogs bred with pits or Amstaff's because both of those breeds are illegal in Ontario.

It doesn't really matter to me either way, but she is older now and looks way more like a Staffordshire terrier then either of the two dogs they said she was mixed with.

You could have saved yourself money and gotten korg ds


does the korg ds have a vocoder or a keyboard attachment at all? i wanted something actual and substantial. i was tired of emulation and shit, I wanted something with some ass.

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?

That Onimusha 3 cover made me realize how much better the PAL version looked:

Nice! I bought a plasma (42" Panasonic PZ80U) two months ago and fell in love with the picture quality immediately. The funny thing is that when I visit friends who have LCDs, I'm kinda disappointed by the PQ. I guess that's what steered me towards a plasma display in the first place.:D

As some of you know, the wife and I have been working on paying off our debt... in which we have made enormous strides. We've done very well for several months and are on track to accomplisg our goals in a timely fashion.

With that said, A month ago I told my wife that I would be receiving a bonus from work... I got her to agree to let me blow it in whatever manner I'd like. I reminded her that I've been wanting a new receiver for over a year now and she agreed that it would be a tolerable purchase.

So, here is what I picked up this passed Saturday:

Pioneer VSX 1018AH-K

&
Polk RTi8 (pair)


Keep in mind that I got ridiculous deals on this and it was all paid upfront.


EDIT: I'm at work, but I WILL post actual pics later. Because nobody wants to see pics you can find on GOOGLE, right? :D

Thanks for the heads up, SaitoH!!!

Excellent choice despite the laggy gameplay. Improved translation is incredible (though the original still has it's charm)

Another game horribly overrated by GAF, much like Etrian Odessey. Why do you guys like such bad games? Hopefully I can get a decent amount of my 40 bucks back on ebay.

What? EO is amazing.

Samurai Spirits: Rokuban Shoubu - Jpn PS2

Hey, I'm thinking of picking up the Panasonic plasma.

I've heard good things about it...

But when I checked it out in the store, it didn't seem to be a huge improvement over the other LCDs? I was really surprised.

Could Best Buy just have their crap hooked up horribly?

Whoa... How in the world does this sset work with rock band?

:lol It doesn't. But I wouldn't have bought it if it weren't for that game.

I spent all day trying to think of some witty comment to go with the picture, that's the best I had.

Where did you managed to get it? Also can you please check if the jpn. version has an all english setting like th asian supposedly does?

1. Some local import store.

2. Haven't played much than the 1st chapter, didn't notice English settings in options, the menu items are in English, but Japanese in everything else so far. I spent most of my time on SC4 so couldn't help much.

Can you elaborate please?

Its a fun (even more so if you enjoy naruto) game that gets way too much backlash. Its major shortcoming is its length in that it covers only very early of the anime when there was so much more available at the time. Don't let the haters make you regret a solid purchase.

it's not the haters. i played 3 or 4 hours of it and while i like the free roaming gameplay and quests i hate the fighting. and i enjoy Naruto btw.

I'm too lazy to start tearing apart my already messy room for my digital camera, but I'm told my first pickup is a treasure. :)

Shin Megami Tensei : Nocturne (PS2, $50 used, no case or manual)
Shadow Hearts : Covenant (PS2, $18 used)
Batallion Wars 2 (Wii, $25 used)
+10% Member Card (my local EBGames is great) + 20% off coupon (Thank you CAG!)
-----------------------------
$70.46 with tax

And then the same night I ordered Steambot Chronicles (PS2) for $10+ shipping online. :)

Umm... aren't they selling new copies for like $45?

I was told repeatedly to grab a copy if I saw it, so I did (and was unaware of there being a reprinting).

Oh well, I got it, and for $35, so it's not a real loss.

probably due to douche bags buying 10 copies as an investment.

Like the original Disgaea before it's reprinting? (I got it as a gift, the person paid $70 for it while other ebay auctions managed to hit 90-100 bucks)

Anyways, I got it, so at least I don't have to worry about it. :)
