Is the Gamecube version of Mega Man X Collection any good? I got that for $5 today along with a non-Player's Choice of REmake (I think that goes on ebay for a little more than $5).

Since we didn't get to go I picked this up. Hope the video is better than the packaging - Looks like a high school graphic design class did this shit.
Got this for the wife. She is looking to get a tattoo of something okami related. After looking at everything she still wants to go with the okamiden picture I found on a message board months ago.
Not hard to tell what is for me and what is for the wife in this picture. She loves Gin.

Homage or not it looks like shit. The actual pictures are fine. The cover is made in a form of card board that has color bleeding all over. The inside is all broken because of the poor packing. Not one bubble of wrapping or packing p-nut was used to get it to me. I have yet to watch any of it so it might be awesome on the disc but the packaging and shipping suck and for $40 you expect it to look better than a wal-mart dvd packaging.
Not that I wanted/needed to rant or that many are picking this up (don't recall seeing it posted on here) but it is good to know if you are considering it.

I love pickups! I'm addicted to pickups!
First from the closing blockbuster nearby - all $9 each.
GaGa was $7 but Ace Attorney was full price - for the PAX plane trip and layovers.
Best Cover Art-
Worst 360 game history art- (seriously?? wtf)
Also from blockbuster -
So are these -
And again-
I have the red mushroom on my desk at work already I thought the green would go well with it. I like the HTML book - got it basically free after that amazon SF20 art book snafu.
And the Cure for this disease that is rapidly spreading -
35 excellent condition 360/ps3/wii cases from blockbuster - 5/$1! I would have bought more but this is all they had that didn't have WWF/NASCAR/NFL/NBA stickers or other garbage on them. Oddly enough they would only sell me the cases, they wouldn't let me take the cover arts for the cases..
This isn't my pickup, it's my roommate's cat he recently got, but I guess that means I can have fun with it without having to pay for it or clean out the poo box. Not the biggest cat person either.

As a former Marine, Generation Kill is the best portrayal of the Marine Corps ever.

Heard alot of good critics about Thirst. And the LW-box has all four movies for only 10. :O
The new record of Yeasayer "Odd Blood". On vinyl with the whole record on CD.
I thought it was time to get it.

SonOfABeep, I hate to break it to you, but you got ripped by Blockbuster. If you had gone out to their trash dumpster the night before garbage pickup in the area they woulda had those cases just sitting there in boxes just waiting to pickup. Heck, usually if you just ask them inside the store they'll let you take as many as you'd like from the back counter that are just waiting to be tossed. Sounds like your store has some enterprising entrepreneurs :lol

Well, I'd pay $9 to not have to rummage through the dumpster. I don't know about you. Yuck! Not to mention I probably wouldn't want them if they were going to be from the dumpster. 5/$1 is fair, I think. Especially since these aren't normal DVD cases.
Also I'm hoping generation kill is great, it's by the wire guys and I love love loved that show. Also it was only $20. A fair price, and they only had one copy left. No point in waiting for it to be $15 and it being gone.
-Silent Hill Shattered Memories. I'm loving it so far
-Guns N' Roses Greatest Hits
-Brand new M-Tech Gear Knob. So comfy
I was gonna wait for God of War 3 and Tag Force 4 to arrive but eh.
I also forgot to take a picture of the handbreak italian-leather gaiter i bought for my car. Its not really an intersting thing to look at anyway
The US never got LE releases of ICO or Shadow of the Colossus.
Pokemon HeartGold. Nintendo DS. $35.
Pardon the pun, but here's my evolution of the Pokemon games. Granted, I didn't include Diamond since the case is MIA, FireRed was lent to my brother, and Ruby is, well, we can just forget about that amirite!? Gold was my favorite of all the games and HeartGold looks like it'll replace it.
Pokemon SoulSilver. Nintendo DS. $33.
Ho-Oh & Lugia Figurines. Bonus Pre-Orders. Free.
Bought SoulSilver for my cousin so we can play together.
Kerropi. Wind-Up Toy.
Received this as a small gift from the lady while we were at the Sanrio store in SF's Japan Center Kintetsu Mall.

Yes, Warhawk with the lovely Jabra BT135 headset and The Eye Of Judgement with the Playstation Eye. Want to know how much I paid for them both? Wait for it..
£12, or $18.02 each
You'd think I would feel bad, but you'd be wrong. <3 CEX, always on hand for awesome random deals.

EOJ ruulles
cant believe u got em for that cheap
Haven't had the chance to pick up FFXIII or GOW3 yet (simply because I've been busy, or every store I walked into had them for $69 bucks, and I'm not about to spend that much on them).
KOF XII from a Master Ninja from the "FREE to a good home" thread
Picked up Soul Silver with the Lugia toy on Sunday. Also, managed to snatch a copy of the Japanese version of Yellow for $10 with the box, manual and map in tact!
My new Famicom Micro, chilling with the Famicom Mini: Super Mario Bros I got a couple of years back.
Dragon Box vol 2 and a bunch of One Piece volumes. Video quality on the Dragon Box is simply amazing
Last but not least, I picked up some new furniture. I can finally place all the consoles around the TV without having to move shit around
Not Pictured: Megaman 10, shelf for Games/DVDs (got it with the table, forgot to take a pic >_> )
