How's Casshern? I'm templed to get that movie.

 

[Accoun]

Actually, I got the package just a few hours ago and I still haven't watched it.

 

[smr00]

Thanks for the heads up, picked one up myself at that price.

It's been a very Playstation month for me; Picked up a PS3 at the start of the month with:
Valkyria Chronicles
Ninja Gaiden Sigma
Yakuza 3
Dead Rising 2 Off the Record
Rage
Atelier Totori
EA Active 2 (was only $10 for the whole kit new, so what the hell. Tried it this morning and actually got quite a decent workout out of it, I'm going to try sticking with it.)

...In addition to the months of free PS+ stuff I'd been queueing up from my account on my previous roommate's PS3.

Oh and I also bought Tomba and the Marvel Avengers Pinball Pack yesterday. Game overload!

Gamestop has the blue, Walmart has the red, and Best Buy has the silver.

Wouldn't it of made more sense for GS to get the Red? and BB or Walmart get the blue? when i think walmart or BB i think blue, when i think GS i think red/black.

First Games:

Dragon's Dogma (360)
Asura's Wrath (360)
Max Payne 3 (360)
Shadows of the Damned (PS3)
Saints Row 1 & 2 bundle (360)
Driver SF (360)

Then toys:

The first two rows I got this month. Mostly Super Heroes except the middle 3 in the second row which were yard sale finds.

/edit: sorry about the pics being huge.

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

I know there are a few things I'm forgetting; but I can't for the life of me remember what. In any case, I'm cleaning and snapped some pics of my recent pick-ups.

Some watches; I love all three of them. The Orange Monster with the Maratac band looks absolutely stunning in person; and it's so comfortable.

Also picked up Max Payne 3 (PC), Starhawk (PS3), and the Spiderman Blu Ray for $12 since it comes with a free ticket to The Amazing Spiderman. Also found two shirts from Express I liked on clearance - the purple in the pic and a grey one just the same which is in the wash.

And I finally tracked down an absolutely mint issue of this old EGM, which was printed with my favorite MGS advertisement, ever. I plan to have this matted and framed later this summer:

 

[mandiller]

My pick-up. I'd always wanted one and it was finally on sale. I used to have a yellow GameBoy Color that I loved to pieces when I was young, so it's only fitting I complete the journey.

I need to buy that movie again.

I'm so jealous. America got all the garish colors.

...yellow, blue and red are available here in the UK and Europe too. In fact, my sister has a yellow DSi XL.

Looks gorgeous. I was thinking about getting one to play DS games on. I've been using my 3DS to play DS games lately and everything looks so small and blurry. How do you like it, and was it worth it?

 

[Skel1ingt0n]

Psh... The Super Mario 25th Anniversary one is gorgeous. I love mine!

That said, the yellow is sexy as hell, too!

For 2D sprite-based DS games, the DSi XL is by far the greatest way of playing them, hands down. No other system comes close. Chrono Trigger is incredible on that thing.

Where can i buy this Yellow DSI XL?

I really REALLY need to pick one up but the only colors i can find is that shitty burgandy and bronze, i know a blue one is out there but not locally sadly and i don't want to spend $150 online for a blue one, totally would for a yellow one because that XL is fucking sick.

 

[Skilletor]

Found this at the comic shop when I went today. Purchased with no hesitation:

I've really been tempted to get one.

 

[mandiller]

Where can i buy this Yellow DSI XL?

I'm in Australia and we have yellow, blue, red, bronze and burgundy from the colours I have seen in store. The DSi XL normally still retails for $AU249 and it was on sale at Target for $AU139 (in case in AusGaffer is interested).

I've really been tempted to get one.

Well so was I. All I was waiting for was a sale. I say if you see it on sale, go for it! I've been playing some games on it now and it is awesome. It's hard to convey how huge it is. The screens are massive and great to look at.

Here's some more envy shots:

First Games:

Where can one get a monitor stand like the one shown here?

Really wished the states got the yellow Dsi XL, would've picked that one up instead of the blue one I have now

 

[Skilletor]

What are they?

Magnets!

 

[rykomatsu]

closed today!

Starting restoration and renovation in a few weeks to gradually (a few years lol) bring it back to a classic american craftsman/foursquare look inside and out with some modern home automation hopefully

It is an aluminum kitchen shelf and legs from ikea.

Driver SF (360)

Good choice, hope you enjoy it!

 

[mocolostrocolos]

Where and how?

A friend of a friend went to Cuba a few weeks ago and he brought three boxes of these little babies.

I don't want to know how did he manage to get them. They're a bit rough, so I'm going to have them in my humidor for a long time before I can taste them.

 

[Sagitario]

That yellow DSi XL looks great!

I have that same yellow XL, it's beautiful, also, it's built like a tank.

 

[Yes Boss!]

Have not had my 360s or wifi for over a year. So I finally caught up on all the big releases. Strange new dashboard for 360! For less than $50 I got:

Guardian Heroes
Radiant Silvergun
Sine Mora
Fez
Sonic CD
Apple Jack 2

Pretty amazing set of games!

 

[Westraid]

Bought early June, but still. Really enjoyed playing this game. I will never get over how cute the Majin is wtf.

Ordered yesterday, arrived today. I've seen the TV series, but ashamed to say I've never read the books. Season 2 ended almost three weeks ago, and I just couldn't take the wait anymore.

There are a lot of fakes out there, they're always cheap!

Still, those look genuine, so I think you're OK. Enjoy!

Oh fuck me. I was planning on buying a DSI XL today but Nintendo announced the 3DS XL last night. Which should I get...?
