@Cagen:

I printed the MI posters as well, they're now in my bedroom. I love 'em to death as well. I've been thinking of printing more posters, but I don't have the space to put them.

Killzone 2 and all of the Great Value Fruit Punch my Wal Mart had on the shelf. If you don't know about Great Value Fruit Punch, you don't know what you're missing. My candy swapping buddy in OT will be getting a few of these.
 
First purchase of the month:

Original painting of Dr.Robotnik by Milton Knight, who worked on Adventures of Sonic the Hedgehog and created this Robotnik's design. Arrived today, I bought a frame for it straight away. :D

Got some more stuff on the way: The art of Pixar shorts book and the FLCL DVD box set. Will get photos when they arrive.
 
These two came in the mail today (Thanks Amazon!)

There should have been a copy of Akira but for some reason they pushed back the release date in Canada till March 24th. They shipped the rest of my order out for free since the wait would have been a month....

Does it still work? Whenever I see a pistol like that I think of pirates. You must drive a boat.

Yes it works, I shot it once. Roundball .50, black powder.
No boat, but I can always hijack my neighbours. :D

Actually, that is the second game from the German show on Xbox 360. The first one is "Alarm für Cobra 11: Crash Time" (or simple Crash Time in other countries). I have the american version of it.

Where'd you get those printed?

A local print shop in town, they were quite pricey though at £25 each (not including frames) but I knew the quality would be top notch and if there were any problems the owner would sort it out with no fuss.
 


Probably going to be a light month after the insanity of SFIV.

Two books for computer certifications and two games so far

KOF 98UM
Y'S

I'll probably get some Burays...

PS3 TE Stick, MLB 09 The Show, 1TB HDD.

Not quite sure what I'll do with the stick right now.

Green Power FTW!!! I have a bunch of em and they'll probably be the only magnetic storage drives I'll ever buy again (since by the time my Velociraptor dies SSD will hopefully be ideal for a system drive).

Finally got my PS3 TE stick from Gamestop that I preordered back in fucking November... funny thing is I preordered the 360 TE stick a couple months later from the same store and got it a week before the game came out. WTF? :lol

And I finally replaced my launch 360 (finally got the RROD) with an Arcade plus Star Ocean.

K2 Board, Burton Custom bindings, and Thirtytwo boots all 40% at Chick's Sporting goods. Funny enough, they're turning into Dick's sporting goods. :lol

Plus, I got a fatty promotion at the hospital I work at. One step closer to VP... in 15 years. :lol At least I got an office out of it.

Oh yeah. Got them cheap as potatoes too!

Infinite Undiscovery was 22 EUR, Blue Dragon 17 and Eternal Sonata a whopping 12 eurobucks :P
 
Art of Pixar Shorts book. Had this on pre-order from Amazon.

FLCL Box set. Replacing my American region DVDs so I can watch them on my PS3 frame by frame (sad, I know, but I actually learn a but about animation from doing that). Nice surprise to find that all three discs are in a single DVD case so it takes up less shelf space. :)

Got them really cheap, only reason I bought them before i had a 360.
Which hopefully I'll get in about two weeks. You'll see it here when I do.
And then just have to wait for Star Ocean 4 to arrive in PAL land. -.-

Damn, my P180 is huge compared to that.

Anyone know of a good PSU that has long cables??

I had to get a 4pin 12v extension cable to run it behind the motherboard due to the plug being situated at the top of the motherboard. I'm sure it would quite tough to find a power supply with long enough cables for the larger P180 case, othewise I'd recommend my Enermax. It has a 120mm fan and is super quiet (which goes well with my 200mm case fan).
 
Well, I lied. It turns out I actually am going to buy games over here in Europe- they just have to be on platforms that are inherently regionless.

Dreamfall: The Longest Journey Limited Edition- containing Dreamfall, The Longest Journey, a soundtrack and an artbook in a sweet-looking sleeve. Next, a bargain-bin copy of Thief: Deadly Shadows- I need to find out what this "Shalebridge Cradle" thing is everyone keeps talking about (yes, I have some inkling). And then, there's Look Around You (Series 2), an amazingly hilarious parody of all those horrible educational science films you had to watch in grade school.
 
Joined the party a little late, but Gamestation were doing HD DVDs extremely cheap, so I picked up a couple and the player in a deal, along with a new 360 to replace my old launch 20gb Premium (no HDMI and so very VERY noisy). Then bought a couple more HD DVDs from a forum trade post, some of which are still in the post. I do own a PS3 thus am Blu-ray capable, but at £2 a HD DVD I'd be crazy NOT to buy them haha :D.

Oh and yes I'm aware that there is a lot of crap in there, but again TWO QUIDl!

I also picked up a dedicated HD DVD player, so my Xbox drive is now my backup (incase the EP30 explodes or something), and parts to build a media PC.

4 days in and I've already spent a fortune, when March's card statements come in, I'm probably going to have a heart attack ;_;
 
Things I picked up since February:

Denon AH-D1001-Headphones:
21c7ebn.jpg

Looks good, sounds great and is very comfortable to wear. Surprisingly impressive surround sound when it's connected to my old Denon-AVR from 2002 (has a "Virtual Surround"-option for headphones).

WD TV HD Media Player:
5ecu2u.jpg

Extremely pleased with it. Great price, very easy to use, and plays almost everything I've tried. Just a few audio issues with some fansubs, but hopefully that will be solved with the next firmware update.

SF IV-Overkill:
4iyl29.jpg

For the first time, I don't just play against the CPU or good friends at home.
Boy, do I suck online...:lol

Thats awesome, does it have artworks for all the Pixar shorts and movies up to wall-e (or up)?
It has every short film up till Lifted (so no Presto, sadly), including the DVD exclusive short films like Mater and the Ghost Light, Mikes New Car and Jack Jack Attack (but no Burn-E).
