First page or two is usually favorite pick-ups from the previous month. December is usually favorite pick-ups from the year, woven in.
This is a thread about consumption!
Oh man, I hate The Fly. I saw it for the first time when I was pretty young, I don't remember how old I was exactly, but now I just absolutely can't watch it again. I was for sure younger than 10, and I'm in my 30's now. A couple of the scenes are still so disturbing to me, it probably would be no big deal now but I just can't do it, haha. This is the only movie that I feel that way about.

lots of backstory in it, and the artwork and writing is freaking awesome.

Cross posting from the shmups forum.
Look what just came in the mail.
Pretty good condition, and only about $60 USD shipped.
Awesome, great pick-up. So good to see people appreciating YGW.
I picked up Ibara about two years ago and it still lurks in the shelf behind me, menacing. Tough, tough game. Best I did was Stage 4 I believe.
And now for my haul:
One of my favorite CAVE soundtracks. Cover is eh but the music is amazing.

Collected these at a relatively local game store. I need #2 now!
Nice! I need to track down Lolo 2 and 3 for my collection.
I got some cool stuff this past weekend, mostly with Amazon credit.
Found Mario Tennis GBC (for $1.99) and the Wii Points Card (for $12.99) at Goodwill.
James Noir's Hollywood Crimes for 3DS was $11.98 at Target.
Got the rest of the stuff using Amazon credit.
The games were ~$5 each, grabbed the Beauty & The Beast Blu-Rays b/c they were just vaulted on 4/30, and I got Disney's WOW to calibrate my new 3DTV and now it looks even better!

Zeta Gundam Complete Collection II and a Master Grade 2.0 RX-178 Gundam MK-II (A.E.U.G. Colors).
The MG's box is so massive. It dwarfs the DVD case.

Ibara is great, but it is indeed very menacing as most Yagawa-san games are. I have played it before on a friend´s PCB but really haven´t fully grasped the system, and it´s kicking my ass because I can´t rank control for shit and thus not getting the needed extends to keep up. I should invest in a PS2 stick, perhaps I´ll dual mod my HRAP EX-SE someday.
Oh and nice pick-up too by the way, that Espgaluda II BL OST is godly, specially the track for Stage 3. RIP Uemoto-san.
Is that Sam Gideon figure a new pick-up as well?
What do you think of the UDraw? I was thinking about getting it - does it come with any good software?
I know all about the silent Hill collection. But I was using two coupons at a local super market. One to discount 10 pound if a certain price is spent and another to just take off 10. Both run out in a few days. I couldn't find anything else to raise the price, and I figured there's the patch coming out soon.
Need to figure a way to get that sticker off, from the girl with the dragon tattoo box. Really wish they'd put shit like that on the wrapper.

Good riddance to my AMD 5970 and hello...
I'm gonna crumb.....
Good pickup
That new 690 is a beast
An Idiot Abroad collection
This is the best unintentional humor I have witnessed on T.V. Karl's similes and comparisons can't be beat. He just genuinely does not like to travel. Although, the one thing I couldn't do is in Season 2 when he eats that "dish" that inspired Sushi. A 3yr old fermented fish!? It costs $170 GBP

Uniqlo. The only stores in North America are in New York, and they don't have an online store for NA.

Another month, another PCB! This time it's Data East's Diet Go Go! A Snow Bros. style game where you fatten up enemies and bounce them around the screen to chain into other enemies. Lot's of fun, can't wait to try it co-op.

~40 for all of them
I don't know - never played it. Just bought it because it was cheap (9) ^^
You mean the one holding all three Operation Rainfall games? It was a pre order bonus from buying from HMV. Only reason I imported it honestly.
Too bad it took two weeks for it to arrive in poor package consisting of something resembling a garbage bag

Damn that package must have been in some weird places!! Sorry about that!
Got a Sega 32X SCART cable:
I had a RF cable before... the image quality is sooooo much better now!!
Does anyone know if there a way to force PAL games to play @ 60hz (without hardware modding)??

Lol, talk about obscure.
And I'm pretty sure you can't force PAL games to 60hz... they were programmed to run at 50, and that's how they shall remain. As far as I know... some games had a 60hz mode, but on the 32x? I doubt it.
Its not obscure its a SCART cable for Mega Drive 2/32X/CDX!
Thanks... awful borders and sloooowww music it is!

Hey man, I get it - SCART kicks ass. I use it for my Saturn, and it has allowed me to play games with a constant erection! Ya just don't see them every day. SCART cables, that is.
