For £6 at some point in the future we'll see about that! I want to play the first UC at some point, even if some have advised against that, too...
Well in the case of Uncharted, the first one is a great game and the second one is even better. In the case of Killzone 2 it just sucks.

Interesting, I'd heard that the first UC was a decent enough shooter, with UC2 being the game that brought the series way beyond par. What's so bad about KZ2? Is it bad in it's own right, or in comparison to KZ3?

KZ2's story is super bland.

Wow virtual on? Didn't know there was a Dreamcast version.
It's quite good. I like the XBLA version more (it's actually based on a more recent version of the Arcade game), but it doesn't have local splitscreen vs. like the DC port.

KZ2 is a great game, GAF's GOTY FPS of 2009.

I've been so excited for Soul Eater to come out on bluray, and it did! At a very reasonable price too.

So I ordered it for its delivery to coincide with the end of my exams. I planned to do nothing -absolutely nothing- but watch it the day it came. It came today in the mail :D


Nope. Fuck you Funimation.

Gah. This is why I've opted to stay on custom firmware with one of my slim PS3's. I cannot play online or play new games on it - but I get region free blu ray. It's a compromise I'm willing to take.

However, that misleading packaging you have there is absolute bullshit. I'd go mental at them, even though I have region free!

$5,000 in one picture and it's GOING to be an expensive month? Never change GAF.


I bought a 27 inch iMac two weeks ago at best buy and I was JUST about to post its' photo but man..I don't want to offend you.

Uh, two computers I think warrant an expensive month. I know what you're getting at but that doesn't mean these two items don't count.

Live that dream, man.

Half the reason I enjoy this thread is because seeing the epic levels of buying does a lot to sate my own materialistic desires. Is that weird?

The only thing weird about it is that it's just half the reason.

Love the iPad2 so far. There is a bunch of nice apps available. SmallWorld port is a lot of fun !

The Witcher 2 looks like an awesome game. Packaging is very nice for a standard edition. Will definetly try it this weekend.

It was just a (bad) joke about how $5,000 is already a super expensive month (year :p?) by itself. No harm meant.
 
Last months pick ups were pretty good for me, this month is Ben better so far...next month dual velodynes gooooo!!!

Already played through Lost Odyssey but finally picked up my own copy, along with L.A. Noire and Infamous (BB sale, before Sony announced PSN freebies).

But my biggest pickup of the month is not shown: an engagement ring (she said yes!) for my fiancee. So I guess technically that's two pickups. :)

So I emailed Funimation about the disks and they said this:


Nicholas,

It appears that our production department mistakenly locked Region B on this release. We will be re-authoring these disks and making a running change, but will be unable to replace your product as we do not hold the license in the UK. We cannot legally mail product to territories we do not hold the license to.

This product was meant only for US and Canadian customers, and our retailers were only given information saying that this title was Region A coded (as stated on Amazon, PlantAxel, etc). However, we cannot stop our retailers from mailing internationally. I apologize for the inconvenience this may have caused, but you will need to return your product for a refund through the retailer.

Thanks,

Product Concerns

So I've emailed PlanetAxel in the hope of getting some replacement disks once they can confirm they have some region free ones. :\ Long shot I know!

Let me know if you have no luck. I'm more than willing to do the swap for you and send you the new disc.

I always wanted this as a kid. Seeing it now though, I can't help but marvel at the ability of advertisement.

As a person who pretended to be friends with a kid to play crossfire once. You weren't missing out on anything as a child.
