Good to see everyone flipping their SS cover for that superior artwork.
So I completely nerd gasm'd out today. I'll need to take the game over to my Dad's to get it played, but I couldn't skip out buying this at release.
I'm a huge, huge Steins;Gate fan and I've been looking forward to this since the announcement. Also the phone <33

I was totally surprised that this even existed, as I'd never heard of it before. Can't wait to check it out.

Decided to get a camera for my travels later this summer, since a DSLR can be really impractical. I always heard about the NEX series but had no idea they were such well specced cameras.
So I decided to go with Sony, and not jump back into the M4/3 pool.
NEX-6
Photo I took with it:
Also got some shades. Always wanted a pair of Ray-Bans
Aaaand a badass CF card for my DSLR since I got tired of the Canon-imposed limit on SD card speed.

Beer and free comics. What a combo.

There's been some insane bargains happening locally. All these (with the exception of Soul Sacrifice) were well under half price. Soul Calibur alone was just $10 new.

I'm inching ever-closer to owning every first-party Wii game - I only need PokePark 2 (US), Wii Chess (Euro), and a handful of JP-exclusives.

Blastoise is the next one up, followed by Venusaur.
Blastoise is up for preorder still - http://www.hlj.com/product/BAN981321/Act
Garage sale find. $20 for the lot. I had a good chuckle at the watermark on the Okami boxart, which I knew about but hadn't seen in person.
I also got wind waker, twilight princess, and tales of symphonia (player's choice), but I didnt check them before buying and these three didn't have game discs.

Ordered! Thanks. That Rockman figure is very tempting as well.......

Whenever a game uses "middleware," I expect mediocrity. Just see how poor TLOU looks.
Wow! Those are some incredible games for only $20? Incredible haul. I have them all and paid full price at release (no regrets haha)

I paid good money for this Dynex!
Finished law school a couple days ago, so it's time to splurge on some cool sweet shit. Part 1:
Plenty more to come in the next few weeks.

Whoo!
You are gonna love the bigger screen! And the blue and red look amazingly nice in person!

That's what I've heard. The stock photos Nintendo had back when the systems came out made them both look like shitty fisher price toys, but IRL, they actually look good. Weird.
But the biggest draw is that the screens are bigger, and it should be more comfortable to hold, since I have big hands. The original system was so unbearably cramped, I hated using it.
So Soul Hackers should be a good first game to throw at it. And I still have to dig into like... half a dozen other games I've bought for the system and never played due to the discomfort.

Posted in the PS1 appreciation thread but I'll re-post here:
Edit: Also, do all copies of Heart of Darkness have the spelling "disk" instead of "disc"?

Unreleased Sega Genesis Game?
I still need Soul Hackers. Getting behind on my Atlus titles :-( I know I'm rolling the dice. Still need to Person Golden, as well.

Heart of Darkness is such an under appreciated gem of the PS1 era. Though not even close to being a horror game, the atmosphere in it really unnerved me as a kid. My PAL copies say Disc 1 and Disc 2 by the way.

That looks like a review copy someone neglected to return to Acclaim.
Got ourselves two cats from a shelter in Estonia. (We live in Finland ourselves). They had been at the shelter for a good three years without anyone wanting them but they stole us away straight up.
Papa, he has a few lower teeth missing so his tongue sticks out every now and then. In an absolutely adorable sort of way, naturally
Triinu, seen here chillin' in a catcave my wife knit while we waited for the cats

OMG. So adorable. ;__;
Only a few months prior to the release, based on the Stargate movie. Bought it since Im into prototypes, and because it is Stargate

Fire Emblem and Picross E-2. I also got Wario Land 3 on the eshop, making my Mario Land collection complete! (Mario Land 1, 2 and Wario Land 1, 2, 3 and 4)
feels good man. Would have got a physical copy of Fire Emblem, but the cost of getting the digital copy for myself was literally half thanks to some good deals. Won't be doing it again though due to account system bullshit.
but fuck me, if the account system was decent I would get all my games digitally on the 3DS. Cheaper due to deals and discounts on points cards, download speeds are superb (unlike the Wii U), and having games on the handheld's SD is convenient as all hell.
Loveless vol. 3 2-in-1
This contains volumes 5 & 6. I originally started reading the manga because I enjoyed the anime adaptation and I wanted to see how the story concluded; good decision.
The Passion of Gengoroh Tagame
I saw this posted in April's thread and I was intrigued. It's a little too hardcore for my taste, but I'm glad I bought it. I'm sure it won't be in print for very long. I've heard rumours that Picturehouse was considering a second volume, or an additional publication. Is that true?
True Blood Season Three & Four
I've heard the series is going downhill; Alan Ball has resigned as showrunner to launch Banshee on Cinemax.
Macklemore & Ryan Lewis: The Heist
I freaking love Macklemore. Okay, I might just be blinded by his good looks.
Message From Space
Shout Factory released this a few weeks ago. It's a pretty fun little flick. I am a huge fan of films like Barbarella and Danger Diabolik, so it fits into that oeuvre well.
Beyond the Black Rainbow
The most hypnotic film I've seen in a while. Incredible visuals and a memorable sound design. It's atmosphere is unmatched.

From last week's retro hunting.
From today's spur of the moment visit to the game store.

Well, the last two pieces of my set came in (Stand and soap) so my first wet shaving set is complete! Can't wait to give this a go tomorrow morning as I have a late start and should be able to take my time. The soap smells heavenly, so much better than crappy shaving gel in a can smells.
Sounds nice.
What razor is it?
$20 for the lot? Teach me your ways! I'd pay that for Chrono Trigger and Okami alone!
